I'm uisng the WPF Web Browser control and when it fires the Navigating event, the event args always contain NavigationMode.New. It should be set to NavigationMode.Back if the user chooses to 'Go Back' from the web control. So its off to the COM ActiveX control underneath to determine the direction of navigation. I've been looking at I...

This has got to be something simple: I set up a frames page with two possible sources for the target frame based on a form with two options. I used the OnClick event to trap the user's click to show the appropriate page. It works fine in Internet Explorer 7, swapping the two source pages. FireFox 3 and Chrome show only the default so...
I try get the mp3 flash player to work with my javascript on all browsers. All went well for first, but fast realized that my code doesn't work on MSIE. After trying to find out I found this in the reference code: <!--[if IE]> <script type="text/javascript" event="FSCommand(command,args)" for="myFlash"> eval(args); </script> <![endif]...
In some existing code there is a test to see if the user is running IE, by checking if the object Browser.Engine.trident is defined and returns true. But how can I determine if the user is running IE6 (or earlier) or IE7 (or later)? The test is needed inside a JavaScript function so a conditional comment doesn't seem suitable. Thanks ...

I have to add either an embed tag for Firefox or an object tag for Internet Explorer with JavaScript to address the appropriate ActiveX / Plugin depending on the browser. The plugin could be missing and needs to get downloaded in this case. The dynamically added embed tag for Firefox works as expected. The dynamically added object tag fo...

We have a page that lets users upload a file using the asp:FileUpload control. When the user tries to submit the form the get a client side javascript error "htmlFile: access denied". This only happens in IE 7 (not sure about 6) and FF is OK. Apparently this is due to a security setting that was introduced to IE with XP SP2. Fair eno...
I'm embedding an IE control into my C++ application. The problem is that although system-wide, ClearType is disabled, IE7 has its own separate setting, and unless I specifically disable that too, text inside the IE control will be antialiased while the rest of the app will not. The same goes for IE7's font size setting. It wouldn't be ...
In firefox, the error messages display as should. Just to the right of the element being validated. In IE. No matter what I do with the sizing of the labels/elements/errors, the error is always posted below the element, causing every other element to be pushed down. <p> <label for="handle"><strong>User Name</strong></label> <IN...
Recently an application I wrote started not working on Internet Explorer. There has been no change to the underlying (ruby on rails) code. In IE 6 or IE 7, I can make one request (HTTP Post) to the app, but when I try to make a 2nd request, I get an "Operation Aborted" message. Everything works fine in firefox. The HTTP Request and Res...
I'm using Bugzilla 3.2 RC2 (released 11/06/2008) There is some conditional logic deep in there that shows a 2nd dropdown when the 1st has a value of "Resolved". Works great in IE8, Firefox, and Chrome. It doesn't work at all in IE6 or IE7. No Javascript error and nothing happens. I'm wondering if anybody else has run into this iss...

I have an HTML document that is using to embed a control. In some cases, IE fails to load the control in the tag and loads my alternative text. Only problem... I don't know why it is failing. It doesn't show up as an error in the exclamation in the lower-left. I overrode the window.onerror method, but that didn't get fired. I see ...
I've rewritten my family web site using Javascript (JQuery) making ajax calls to php on the back end. It's your standard "bunch of image thumbnails and one main image, and when you click on a thumbnail image the main image changes" kind of thing. Everything is working as expected when using Firefox, but on IE, when I click on a thumbnail...
Part of the question: 1) How much of the market share does IE have? Opera? Firefox? 2) How many Firefox 2.x browsers have already been migrated to 3.x? For those who question whether this is programming related: This is for deciding what has large enough market share to actually be worth supporting for a web application -- given limite...
