okrauth Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I have a weird problem with a solution I am developing that has a web viewer using a DATA URL field and using OpenLayers Javascript. In some occasions I get a blank web viewer as if the the page was not fully processed but sometimes the web viewer displays the data url correctly. I am not sure if it is a cache problem or an encoding issue. Any ideas? Thank you! Otto Krauth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okrauth Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 I have done some more testing and it looks like the problem only appear on the Mac Platform... The viewer responds correctly under the FM Windows platform... not sure what else to do.. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Smith Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Are you using Safari for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okrauth Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) I guess so... can you change the browser engine of the web viewer on mac? If so.. how do you do it? I have Firefox installed in the Mac too. Edited June 10, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Smith Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Web viewer will only work with Safari, that is why I asked. AFAIK, there shouldn't be any difference between the two platforms other than that. Why not attach a copy of the file. BTW. Remove any confidential information first.

okrauth Posted July 24, 2010 Author Share Posted July 24, 2010 (edited) Sorry it took so long.. Here is a FMP file that illustrates the problem: a blank WEB viewer on the Mac but not if you open it with the PC version of FMP... Also I just upgraded to FMP 11 adv and the problem is worse.. at least on FMP 9 once in a while I was able to get the complete Map. Now in FMP 11 the map never shows up.. there has to be a problem with the Safari engine in FMP Mac (Safari displays the page just fine on its own when you copy the data into a regular HTML file)... I hope someone can help. Thank you Otto Krauth Vancouver, BC testWV.fp7_2.zip Edited July 24, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Safari displays the page just fine on its own Not for me - all I see is an empty rectangle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okrauth Posted July 24, 2010 Author Share Posted July 24, 2010 That is exactly the problem... I also get a blank screen... if you copy the DATA field into an HTML file and open it with Safari it displays fine... the Web viewer is the culprit here.

comment Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 (edited) if you copy the DATA field into an HTML file and open it with Safari it displays fine That's exactly what I did - and it doesn't work. Safari v5.0, OS X 10.5.8 Edited July 24, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okrauth Posted July 24, 2010 Author Share Posted July 24, 2010 (edited) it works for me as an HTML in Safari.. and also from my webserver: http://form.whistlerforeclosure.com/tt.html I updated the test file to include the comparison between HTML and DATA URL. testWV.fp7_2.zip Edited July 24, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okrauth Posted July 24, 2010 Author Share Posted July 24, 2010 Do you have Firefox? can you try and see if you also get a blank screen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okrauth Posted July 24, 2010 Author Share Posted July 24, 2010 (edited) That's helpful, Thanks... not sure why the resources don't get loaded...but they do on my machine.?!?!?

okrauth Posted July 24, 2010 Author Share Posted July 24, 2010 OK.. I am moving everything to another webserver and see if the problem is the current webserver. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okrauth Posted July 24, 2010 Author Share Posted July 24, 2010 (edited) The good news is that I fixed the server problem.. However the webviewer on the Mac still doesn't work.. : If you try the sample file again you can see the problem I am talking about testWV.fp7_2.zip Edited July 24, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
