Web Viewer seems to crash Filemaker

Featured Replies

Hello

I now have filemaker 8.5 and when I make a script to populate the web browser with another web site, it keeps crashing. Any suggestions

Thanks

Dave

My version is 8.5 v1 and I am on a Mac 10.4.9

Are you using the Beta of Safari that was released recently.

yes

a tear ran down my cheek as more information arrived.

lets hope you did not do the update yet. :o

is there a way to use foxfire or some other browser in the viewer and use that alone?

hi dave,

FileMaker uses the OS Webkit, it can not be specified to my knowledge.

I made the same mistake. I now have a file that crashes every time using Web View, when I request the page using one of my calculations.

It also broke the Dash Board item for www.briandunning.com but the fix the was made available after a day or two, fix that part.

I can understand if FileMaker was a product that Apple wasn't familiar with, but come on. Have they stopped talking all together now? Are they each developing in a vacuum now?

my 2¢ worth.
