Opening an iframe for IE while using Chrome Frame

I'm trying to use Chrome Frame for a business web application and so far things are working well. However, I need to open an iframe that should be rendered using IE's engine and not Chrome Frame's renderer. The iframe doesn't have the meta tag for Chrome Frame yet it renders with the plugin. Is there a way to open an iframe that is rend...

Datepicker (1.8rc3) not transferring date in IE6

Using jquery-1.4.2 and jquery-UI 1.8rc3, I instantiated a datepicker on a text input with showOn: 'focus'. The datepicker appears correctly. However when I click on a date, the datepicker doesn't disappear and the dateStr doesn't get transferred to the text input. I tried adding an onClose: handler that calls alert(dateStr). The even...

Change Firefox title bar programatically (like IE with registry setting)

I need to change the firefox window title like I would do for internet explorer (like this). Is it possible or do I need to somehow install an extension and hack this setting into it? ...

Javascript iframe caching issue

I hava an iframe which loads some javascript via javascript. In internet explorer only, this works if and only if IE has a cached copy of the javascript. This means that reloading the page (or otherwise triggering the script to run again, if it's stuck in a function or whatever) will cause this code to work, otherwise it will not. In ...

Javascript data parsing in IE vs other browsers... It seems kinda screwed up. What's the deal?

Firstly, when I say other browsers I really only mean Firefox because that's all I tested in. Internet Explorer can parse a date followed by a single character as a proper date. Whereas Firefox behaves as I'd expect. For example... var dateString = new Date("1/1/2010f"); alert(dateString); In IE it will alert... Thu Dec 31 21:00...

Single click to activate last tab in windows 7 internet explorer (like FF)

Windows 7 annoyance: the jump lists are fine for hovering over the taskbar items, great go ahead and show me previews of all the open instances and maybe I'll pick the exact one I want. However this works different between IE and FF. Hovering over the FF icon just shows me the single FF window, not any of the tabs I have open. Clicking ...

jQuery getJSON response null for Firefox, works for IE

$.getJSON(service + "/GetJobTags", { tag: "a" }, function(json) { $.each(json, function(i,val) { alert(val.Title); }); }); It calls: http://127.0.0.1:20087/ClientService.svc/GetJobTags?tag=a This is probably of note, the service is running on a different port to the client application, wh...

IE Not Picking up Blur Event (jQuery)

I did a quick search, but couldn't find a specific solution to this (I'm sure it HAS been answered) but, I need to figure this out... Anyone know why this won't work in IE? $(document).ready(function() { $(document).blur(function() { window.close(); }); }); And what to do instead? Thanks. ...

Is it possible to launch a program from an anchor in IE? For example, iTunes had links like itms:blahblah that would open up iTunes and go directly to the appropriate page. If so, what is the best way to do this? ...

Javascript click function

I've got some code which works fine in IE but unfortunately not in Google Chrome/Firefox. It relies upon calling a click() event on a button from javascript. Reading around it seems that this is an IE specific extension (doh). Is there any way I can do a similar thing in chrome + firefox? To clarify, it's executing the click event on a ...

How can I add an URL to the trusted site? It seems that there are stored in the registry, but where exactly? The hints I've googled so far weren't helpfull. The .net programm will run locally on each client. Edit clarification: I want to do this programmaticly running C# code. ...

z-index has no effect in IE7 with Google Map and Navigation Sub-Menus

I feel like the problem is extremely apparent. I'm working on an issue with a client's site, which actually happens on several of my clients' sites but this one is the most apparent. IE7 Is refusing to obey z-index rules. I've played around with differing values, particularly on the divs #mapWrapper and #map. Take a look here: http://the...

Can I get the IE debugger to break into long-running javascript

I have a page that has a byzantine amount of javascript running. In IE only, and only version 8, I get a long-script warning that I can reliably reproduce. I suspect it is event handlers triggering themselves in an infinite loop. The Developer Tools are limping horribly under the weight of the script running, but I do seem to be able ...

even PHP has 'bugs' with IE

This is not a real bug BUT for sure it is not what you would expect. I have this sample code to upload images: if($type=="image/jpg" || $type=="image/jpeg" || $type=="image/pjpeg" || $type=="image/tiff" || $type=="image/gif" || $type=="image/png") { // make upload else echo "Incorrect format ...."; The problem is that if I modify...

ABCpdf7 Not Rendering Images using AddImageUrl

Fairly exotic it seems to me. We recently upgraded/migrated from Windows Server 2003 to 2008, and now it seems that images cannot be rendered when using Doc.AddImageUrl(). (when the pdf is saved, the images appear at the correct dimensions, but the IE8 missing image x shows up). If I understand correctly, ABCpdf uses IE rendering intern...

Embedded pdf object steals focus and will not let it go

Hi guys, I was given the task of adding some usability to one of our applications, ie. make sure that every controll has a shortcut key, and that they can be reached by "tabbing" through the page. The gui runs in a IE. control on a winform, and consists of asp.net pages, so basically it is just asp.net always running in internet explor...

How to debug browser crash when running Silverlight app

I am on a team of three people who are developing a Silverlight application. On two of our developers' machines the app seems to randomly crash. It never crashes on the third developer's machine. The nature of the crash is that internet explorer just dies with an "Internet Explorer has stopped working" message. The problem details look ...
