How do I open a document in XPages mobile controls from a URL?
My application notifies users about pending review using an embedded URL link in an email. The requirement is to open the document in mobile controls (SinglePage/App Page). As of now I get a grey page on ipad when the link is clicked from the email.
However I am able to edit the same document using a button and <moveTo> tag. The following is a sample URL when loaded to a browser renders a grey page.
http://175.x.y.z/db.nsf/MN.xsp#newRequest&docId=123761231653&action=openDocument
The #newRequest part of the URL needs to be moved to the END of the url string. Nothing after the # symbol in a URL is transfered to the server so the server never gets the docId or action parameters.

We have a web admin panel in which the agents can see conversations with customers.
Those conversations are the result of importing normal emails thru an IMAP connection. We grab the "untouched" mailbox files and we store them in a database. Then we post-process the files to index by "from", "to", "date" and so on and so forth.
Up to here, okey. We can seek all the emails involved with a client and render them at will.
Then when the agent looks for a customer in the web admin panel and opens it, the full email conversation appears. And we display the HTML version of the email within an iframe (or the text version if the html version is not there). 90% of the customers send HTML.
What happens? Upon the agent opening the email in our web, the iframe loads the "full html" and renders it. This makes "remote loading" (images, sounds, styles if so, and whatever) to be downloaded. This allows customers to "track" if we opened the email by appending tracking id's to the assets (typical http://track.example.com/image.jpg?id=123456789)
I've tried the "sandbox" attribute of the iframe html tag with no luck (it still downloads the images).
Question
How can I programmatically tell the iframe to not load ANY remote content, and just render the initial HTML without any remote call?
Mozilla's iframe documentation listing all available attributes for the is here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/iframe
If you look at "sandbox" there is no restriction specific to image or other includes, just restrictions on things like running JavaScript. There are no other attributes that would restrict images and includes.
To solve the problem of images and includes in your HTML you will need to filter the HTML either at the server before sending it or in the client after it arrives.
Server:
Before storing it into the database.
In the code that retrieves the HTML and returns it to the iframe.
Client:
Use AJAX to fill the iframe with the HTML, with code that filters a
response. With this approach you could also use a div instead of an
iframe if that works better for your layout.
If all of your users will use Chrome or Firefox, you could look at writing a browser extension
I have a view of lotus notes and web browser. I have enabled show response documents and both notes and web browser showing response documents. Notes are for Admin view while web browser for employee view. So I want to create Admin can view all response document on notes but the employee cannot view response document on a web browser.
Below here my view for notes.
Below here my view for a web browser.
My question is, can I disable show response document just for a web browser?
It means, my notes still showing response document but my browser will not showing response document. Thanks for any help!
You can create two views: one for Notes users (hidden for web users ) and response hierarchy disabled and vice versa one for the web users which is hidden for notes Users with response hierarchy enabled.
I have a VC++ MFC dialog application with a web browser ActiveX control. I have "Next" and "Prev" buttons using which I let the user navigate through a list of pre-defined URLs, whose content are shown in the web browser control. Since I know the list of URLs at the start itself, I would like to pre-load the content in some way while the user is looking at one page, so that when they click on "Next", the content has already been fetched and can be shown to the user instead of waiting for the page to load. I did not find any documentation on how to do that so far. Does anyone have any ideas on how to achieve this? I was thinking of having a second invisible web browser control where I pre-load the next URL, but it would be tricky to handle the user clicking Next when the next URL is still loading in the other browser.
Whenever browser back is clicked, it must not navigate to the previous page but to some default page. how is it done using JSF ?
Clicking on browser back button requests the result page from the browser cache.
This is a client side activity. It doesn't send request to your server for fetching some default page(in your case).
Please refer this post for writing a filter indicating the browser not to cache dynamic JSF pages.
And also you can refer this one for more details.
You can try to detect if User has clicked on browser back button by writing client side code.
Refer this post for detecting back button click.
If you are trying to alter the behaviour of browser back button, it indicates some kind of flaw in your application.
I have a great working chrome extension now.
It basically loops over a list of HTML of a web auction site, if a user has not paid for to have the image shown in the main list. A default image is shown.
My plugin use a jQuery Ajax request to load the auction page and find the main image to display as a thumbnail for any missing images. WORKS GREAT.
The plugin finds the correct image url and update the HTML Dom to the new image and sets a new width.
The issue is, that the auction site tracks all pages views and saves it to a "recently viewed" section of the site "users can see any auctions they have clicked on"
ISSUE
- My plugin uses ajax and the cookies are sent via the jQuery ajax request. I am pretty sure I cannot modify the cookies in this request so the auction site tracks the request and for any listing that has a missing image this listing is now shown in my "recently viewed" even though I have not actually navigated to it.
Can I remove cookies for ajax request (I dont think I can)
Can chrome remove the cookie (only for the ajax requests)
Could I get chrome to make the request (eg curl, with no cookie?)
Just for the curious.
Here is a page with missing images on this auction site

Thanks for any input, John.
You can use the webRequest API to intercept and modify requests (including blanking headers). It cannot be used to modify requests which are created within the context of a Chrome extension though. If you want to use this API for cookie-blanking purposes, you have to load the page in a non-extension context. Either by creating a new tab, or use an off-screen tab (using the experimental offscreenTabs API.
Another option is to use the chrome.cookie API, and bind a onChanged event. Then, you can intercept cookie modifications, and revert the changes using chrome.cookies.set.
The last option is to create a new window+tab in Incognito mode. This method is not reliable, and should not be used:
The user can disallow access to the Incognito mode
The user could have navigated to the page in incognito mode, causing cookie fields to be populated.
It's disruptive: A new window is created.
Presumably this AJAX interaction is being run from a content script? Could you run it from the background page instead and pass the data to the content script? I belive the background page operates in a different context and shouldn't send the normal cookies.
