FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.4.0"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-b92)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-b92, mixed mode)
FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :Windows NT 4.0
ADDITIONAL OPERATING SYSTEMS :
Linux
EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
The versions of ie tested are 5.5 and 6.0 for nt (not xp)
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When I generate the All browsers extended platforms type
of html there seem to be errors in the javascript which
stop the page from being parsed properly. This lead to many
strange side affects such as Panels not being rendered
correctly etc. The most significant problem tho is that you
get an error dialog EVERY visit to the page due to the
script having "an undefined constant"
The plugin is also not correctly loaded under netscape 4.74
on linux (tested on debian)
This bug was not present on 1.3 plugin html converter
REGRESSION. Last worked in version 1.3
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1.Generate an applet html page
2.Convert using Extended (Normal + all platforms)
3.Upload to webserver and point browser
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED: The browser should parse the html and hook the
plugin and the applet should display correctly.
ACTUAL: IE throws an error message regarding an undefined
constant. The applet is then sometimes not rendered
correctly on complext layouts utilizing boxLayout (side
affect )
ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
The error complains of an undefined constant at line 22:
line 22 of the source code below is listed here:
if (_ie == true) document.writeln('<OBJECT classid="clsid:CAFEEFAC-0014-0000-
0000-ABCDEFFEDCBA" WIDTH = "760" HEIGHT = "500"
codebase="http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4_0-
win.cab#Version=1,4,0,0"><NOEMBED><XMP>');
This bug can be reproduced always.
---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
Here is a sample basic HTML page,
<HTML>
<BODY>
<applet code = CraftMain width=250 height=250>
</applet>
</BODY>
</HTML>
---------- END SOURCE ----------
CUSTOMER WORKAROUND :
use only the Standard as this seems to work this is NOT
desirable for me however.
