I am trying to manually add glimpse to an existing WebForms site.
I added Glimpse.Core.dll to the bin directory and edited my web.config as described here.
When I go to http://localhost/Glimpse.axd, I see the Glimpse config page and everything seems OK. When I click "Turn Glimpse On", a banner is added to the top of the page telling me that "Glimpse is now ON". Everything looks great so far.
When I go back to my site, the page loads, the glimpse icon pops up in the lower right corner, and then the page refreshes. Then the process starts over again. If I go back and turn off glimpse, the refresh loop stops.
I've looked at the refresh loop using fiddler, but nothing looks out of place. I've tried to use Firebug or the Chrome developer tools to see what's going on, but the page refreshes to fast for me to see anything.
I'm using glimpse 0.86 and .NET 4.0 on IIS 7 .5 (Windows 7).
Any clues?
Try making sure that you have properly closed any script tags or other markup on your page.
The only time I've seen reports of this behavior was when a page's markup was malformed, and the inclusion of a new/unexpected script caused the page's own javascript to execute.
The Glimpse client, to the best of my knowledge, does not actually have redirect code in it.

I have a Chrome Extension (page action). The extension is loaded in developer mode (not from the store).
The extension is used in two sites, both of which URLs are in the manifest.
When I go to one of the sites, the page icon is enabled and when I click it, it runs fine.
When I go to the other site, the extension icon is also enabled but when I click on the extension, instead of running the action, the extension menu appears (as if I had right-clicked the icon instead of clicked it).
When I hover the page action icon, in both sites I get the text "Has access to this site".
Which are possible causes for this behavior?
Something definitely changed with the manifest.json handling of the most recent Chrome update. (In my case, "Version 72.0.3626.96 (Official Build) (64-bit)" on Windows.) My extension stopped working in a way similar to what you describe.
The solution to my problem was to remove the specific url permissions I had specified in the "permissions" section, and replace them with <all_urls>. I tried tightening them back up again, but the only other thing that worked for me was https://*/*.
I tested this on several machines that had the previous version of Chrome and they had the same behavior... successful operation before the Chrome update, no response after. The icon displayed properly and showed "Has access to this site", but my background page refused to run.
Good luck! Hopefully this helps!
I have had a report that my company's website is resizing at least one employee's browser windows. I experienced this behavior myself on the user's computer, and it was mystifying because the resizing only occurred on our site, not on any other site, and it occurred on both Firefox and Internet Explorer. The user has a Windows 7 machine running updated software. She has no add-ons, themes, or plugins besides the usual (Flash etc.) and her settings are the factory defaults. I cleared the browser cache on both browsers and restarted the computer and it still occurred. The only thing left is the css, but none of it seems suspicious to me.
What is happening is, when she clicks a button or internal link on the site, then when the new page finishes loading, the browser window resizes to approximately 80% of the width of the content. That is, the very last thing the page does as it loads is to resize itself. If she zooms in or out, then on the next load, it again resizes to 80% or so of the smaller or larger size of the content. If she maximizes and then loads a page, then the window resizes to 80% but somehow maintains the "maximized" icon. (You then have to click twice on the "maximized" icon to maximize.)
The reason I am flummoxed is that I thought this kind of behavior was something you could only do with JavaScript, but I deliberately tested this with pages that had no JavaScript at all and it still occurred. There is exactly one page on the website that has browser-resizing JavaScript on it, but it resizes to a pixel size, not a percentage, and it's part of a web service that wasn't in use while I was testing.
What kinds of things should I investigate to solve this issue? Because this is an employee, I have to either fix the website or fix her computer, so ideas for investigating both would be great.
The problem turned out to be that single page with browser-resizing JavaScript I mentioned. Another set of pages had needed some JavaScript functions from that web service, so one person had copy-and-pasted the functions that were needed. Then someone else came along, noticed that the copy-pasting was a dumb idea, and decided to simply include the JavaScript file that had those functions instead.
The problem was, the command to resize the window was bare in that file. For that one user, that command was being carried out and resizing every window. For everyone else, their browsers were ignoring the resize command except on the web-service popup window. I can only assume she had the problem because she had factory-standard settings, and the rest of us didn't. To fix the problem, I moved the resize command from the JavaScript file to the head of the web service page.
I think this should be releated to IIS settings but don't know exactly what it is.
As you can see below, this login message pops up for each images, 8 images 8 times in Opera.
And the major browsers react to this page different.
IE9 works good(this is the reason why I found this problem now. It's internal site and almost every users use IE...)
Chrome(17.0.963.56 m) works good.
Safari(5.1.2) is also good.
Opera 11.61 has a problem like I said...
And FF SHOWS NO IMAGES and don't even ask for login. And Firebug says it's "NetworkError: 404 Not Found!".
I don't know what's going on.
This site requires to login and it's internal, so I can't give you the link. Sorry for the inconvenient.
And this site is running on Windows Server 2003. And the image containing folder is shared for web(I don't know why it's shared. But don't want to change the setting). I don't know this may cause this situation.
If Opera opens a user name/password dialog, the site is probably sending a WWW-Authenticate header in response to those image requests. You can open Opera's developer tools ("Tools > Advanced > Opera Dragonfly" or right-click in page and select "Inspect element") and use the network feature to inspect the full headers.
I don't know how you can disable this header if it is sent, it depends on the server settings and what type of server you're running, and I'm not at all familiar with Windows Server 2003.
We have a asp.net web application which will be used in an intranet environment on IE 6. We want to change the default configuration of the browser so that it's always rendered without the Tool Bars, Menu Bars and Address Bar, just the browser window frame and the status bar should be present.
We were looking at the IEAK toolkit for IE6 but it doesn't seem to have the option of turning all this off though you can turn off certain menus and toolbar options.
Any ideas of how this can be done, is there a group policy setting or something that we can utilize here to get this done?
Thanks for your help.
You have to handle the showing of toolbars, address bar,... before the page is loaded, because it's built client side.
So to solve your problem, I think you should write the first page (Enter page for example) Then when use click on the Enter link you open another page using VBScript or Javascript to remove toolbars, address bar,...
Hope this helps ^^
Have you investigated Kiosk Mode?
Also, you're deploying IE6 at the wrong end of its lifecycle.
It also sounds like your requirement is for an app you're developing; mandating that the browser is configured this way for all sites might make the customers unhappy. If you want to know how to open a browser window without those things for your site, from your site, I'd suggest a repost to StackOverflow.
I'm new to Dreamweaver CS4 and making my first website. I've watched a lot of tutorials and they all just click the Preview in Browser button and they can see what their page looks like in Firefox/IE/etc.
But when I click Preview in Browser a new Firefox window opens up and it goes to my homepage and that's it.
What do I need to setup in order be able to preview in firefox?
THANKS!
I don't use Dreamweaver, although I have it as part of CS4. But I just now opened up the app, created a test HTML page, saved it, and hit F12 (Preview in Browser). And there was my test page. I honestly don't know what you could be doing wrong. I thought it might be that you didn't save your file, but you get a warning dialog if you try to preview without doing that.
After some playing around I fixed the problem myself.
First I had to go to manage site and edit the basic preferences on my website.
I had to make sure the 'URL to browse to the root of your site" is valid.
In my case it I had to add:
