We've just moved our first small JHipster app into production, very exciting and thank you once again for such an awesome project tool.
One small thing we have noticed though, on IE 11, (which is the only approved browser my client currently uses in the company), the alert messages no longer appear. Firefox and Chrome works perfect though.
Could this please be verified? I suspect an additional polyfill maybe needed.
I get no errors in IE developer tools console.
Update:
Alerts work in IE11 using the dev profile but not in prod profile.
This is what is displayed in dev profile IE11.
This is what is displayed in the prod profile IE11.

Right now I use Angular at work to edit and create a Web App, but we are having some issues where changes i've made are looking fine on Chromes Dev Tools in Responsive and emulating the Screen sizes but when deployed they're not the same and its causing some CSS issues such as the buttons not being in the same place we expected.
What solutions are out there that I can use Localhost with?
I'm working on an app on my machine and run it on local host. Sometimes browsers dev tools are not accurate and once I am making the changes in my code and then run, it doesn't look like how it was in dev tools. I'm talking about some alignment, responsiveness, not about styling, colors etc.
When I am comparing my app in different browsers it doesn't look the same in all of them, so I'm no sure which one is actually the accurate view.
I have tried Edge, Opera, Mozilla, Chrome. My company is monitoring my pc, so I can't install random stuff on it.
Is there any other option to preview accurately my app? Any extension or some site?
Thanks in advance.
You can always use other browsers like Opera which has developer mode, as well as, Microsoft Edge and Safari that offer web development tools. As for the alternatives for Firefox, I believe it was already answered, check this: What are the alternatives to the Firefox Developer Tools?
Moreover, these might not directly solve your problem but if you are looking for plugins or apps, check these useful tools out: Plunker, Percy, Ghost Inspector, Requestly.
I am developing an app for our company; because of legacy reasons when the user logs in we use a
third party JSESSIONID cookie.
Issue
What I am seeing is that the cookie when sent to the client is not saved, and therefore not sent on subsequent requests to the server. As such, the server does not think the user is logged in.
Normally I would attribute this to the blocking of 3rd party cookies feature of WebKit/View, but I have turned this off in the Safari settings.
As an FYI we have an Ionic/Cordova project that is based on the same code and it works fine in iOS.
If I use the Add-in on MacOS (Native Outlook and Outlook Web) it works fine.
Works fine in Chrome/Firefox as well.
Works in Android on Outlook for Android app
Our server sets all the correct CORS headers as well.
Since the add-in is just a webapp, I can launch it directly in Safari on iOS, and login there; this also works.
I am aware that Apple regressed WebKit in version 12 (CORS related), but they fixed it in the latest version of iOS 13/MacOS. However, Outlook for iOS (WebView) does not appear to be saving cookies. I can see that looking at the requests coming to the server, they are missing the SessionID which was sent to the client.
I can also see it from the requests when I run through a proxy (Charles) that the Cookie header is not set.
It is also almost impossible to debug the WebView in Outlook for iOS (the webview does not show up in the Safari Developer menu on my Mac). I am easily able to debug other WebViews such as the mobile project mentioned above.
Question
Is the Webview configured to prevent 3rd party cookies explicitly? if yes, can it be turned off somehow? I have turned off the 3rd party tracking in Safari, but that does not appear to help.
I have been reluctant to use the DialogJS API since the login flow is working on my Mac; and this would considerable change our UX for login. Also, I have not seen any examples of using this API for a mobile project. Can it be used with a mobile project, and if so what would it look like?
All the examples relate to the desktop only.
I am trying to automate a web application using firefox on blue prism. When I use the application modeler to launch the web application, first it is asking for credentials to login on a pop up window. Application modeler cannot identify this pop up has appeared. So I cannot automate the login. However after login manually, I can spy other elements in the application as normal. Any idea on how to automate the pop up window asking for user name and password?
I assume that you specified your application as browser based in application modeler. It's hard to answer your question without knowing how this web application looks and works like. There are few options that you can try nevertheless:
In the latest version (6.4) Blue Prism introduced Firefox plug-in. If you would be able to upgrade your version to the latest one (if you are not using it already), then maybe you'll be able to spy the pop up.
If this web application does not necessarily need be launched via Firefox in particular, then you can test its behavior and spying possibilities on other browsers - Internet Explorer and Google Chrome (supported by BP since 6.3 version).
You can spy the whole browser's window using Region mode and use Surface Automation techniques to input credentials and log in. SA functionalities are greatly improved since version 6.
You can try using web services (if applicable with this website) to connect with the API of the web application, you'll be able to pass/validate your credentials via web services as well. Blue Prism natively supports SOAP based web services, you might need to come with some code stages to wrap it up. It's pretty advanced stuff though and I wouldn't recommend it as a 1st choice.
Hope this helps.
I am trying to build a simple web application, which capture users photo and sent it my custom server there by connected to some other business use-case. My web page uses HTML's file input control to launch native camera or gallery pick up option.
var input = document.createElement('input');
input.setAttribute('accept', 'image/*');
input.setAttribute('capture', 'camera');
input.setAttribute('type', 'file');
input.click();
This web app, I placed in local webserver with a name "PhotoLocker" and testing with url like
https://localhost(ipaddress to access via mobile browser)/PhotoLocker/index.html
This link is working fine both on desktop and mobile chrome browsers and am able to debug any issues. Where as same link, I try to access from WeChat browser (just opening above link from chat window), it is not at all opening my application in WeChat in app browser.
After googling, I found that https URL scheme is not supported by WeChat. is it True? When I paste the same app url as weixin://ipaddress/PhotoLocker/index.html, I am able to see my web app home page but it is not working as expected.
My Question is - how to debug my webpage opened in WeChat browser? Do I need a official WeChat Dev account even to develop and test sample apps?
Additional Info :
I am able to debug webpage from WeChat web devloper tool as mentioned in below link. But, unable to debug mobile wechat page in this tool. It is always opening chrome dev tools.

I am a frontend developer in China, Chinese. Forgive my English for any mistake, misunderstanding I could make. Some links (dev docs mostly) below contain sites complete in Chinese, because I can not find corresponding English ones for now.
how to debug my webpage opened in WeChat browser?
Tencent provide an IDE for developing regular web interface and WeChat-mini-program, with which developer can directly interact with:
JSSDK (basically a special weixin
Object lives only in in-WeChat-browser);
API provided in WeChat-mini-program.
If you download that IDE:
First it will ask you is to use you WeChat to scan the QRCode, then confirm login with your WeChat account;
Next it will show up two square button (image below), left one is for WeChat-mini-program, the right one is for you to testing regular web page.
Click the right blue one, then you can find your way out, it's just something built top on project Blink.
As you can see the part of debugging regular webpage in WeChat IDE is no more than a simulator (in the WeChat-mini-program part, developer can write code directly in it), and in my experience it does have bugs, you will still need to test code in real machine.
For that Tencent provide another tool called vConsole, tutorials here, with it you can do following things directly in in-WeChat-browsers:
View console logs;
View network requests;
View document elements;
View Cookies and localStorages;
Execute JS command manually
and so on
Do I need a official WeChat Dev account even to develop and test sample apps?
Depends.
You may know the Official Account inside WeChat, with webpages directly opened in any context inside in-WeChat-browser, it will have the ability to interact the weixin Object, or have some API like login with WeChat, pay with WeChat Pay:
API like close current in-WeChat-browser, hide-share-button will not required anything special, you don't need to register any Official Account;
But if you want yo do the Pay, Login thing, you need an Official Account and pay for the ability every year (not sure about this outside China).
The localhost problem you faced
I don't have my working machine with me now so I can not test. Regularly I can proxy localhost with Charles then debugging in WeChat, but never do the https, I will try it later.
All the information got regarding how to debug webpage opened in wechat browser redirects to how to see log or ajax/netwrok calls analysis.
Even with WeChat web devloper tool as mentioned in below link, I am unable to debug mobile wechat page in this tool. It is always opening chrome dev tools.
https://mp.weixin.qq.com/wiki?action=doc&id=mp1455784140&t=0.06697335132505233#1.
Hence further analyzed remote mobile webpage debugging and found that there is no way to put break points, watch, expressions and all just like in chrome dev tools is not possible.
As a work around - you are able to debug code, when you simulate page in dev tools but no way to debug webpage in mobile device.
Same webpage when tried to do remote debugging as per WeChat web devloper tool documentation. here we can only see console logs and network calls.
