[Bug 532188] Re: 1.5rc2 applet fails to launch when running in Safari

 

Thank you Noel for your feedback. I'm aware of this problem with Safari,
but unfortunately I don't have at my disposal a Mac OS to debug the
WebSampConnector. Could you please open the Java console before starting
the WebSampConnector and get the log trace? If yes, could you send me
the reported log to berthier@xxxxxxxx?

Remark: the distro you downloaded on the voparis website is the first
version we have coded - on the knees - during the last InterOp meeting.
May be it works, but it is actually badly coded! A major difference
between the two versions is the use of the object HTML tag instead of
the (deprecated) applet one. If you have any example using the object
tag with Java on Safari, please send me it.

Bug description:
I've integrated WebSampConnector with my website (http://astrogrid.roe.ac.uk/ravioli/). I'm using the latest 1.5rc2 version (as the documentation seems to be referring to this).

After unzipping the distro, if I open the 'demo.html' from from disk with firefox, then the demo works find, and I can connect to a hub.

However, if I do the same with Safari, the demo fails. In particular, the 'applet launch' dialogue does not appear. But, if I do the same with the 1.5 distro(downloaded from the voparis website, not launchpad), this launches the applet and connects to the hub fine.
