Some websites not shown properly in web object (but ok in IE)

[Bl4ckSh33p]

Hi. I tried to open a few websites in a web object but I get many Java errors and the page looks ugly and destroyed. But if I view it in Internet Explorer it looks fine. Does the web object not support Javascript or only specific parts of it?

examples: www.esohead.com or www.elderscrollsonline.com

The web uses the old DLL of IE not the new IE tech I think there is a way to make it use the new one by reterest have a look about.

Do you know if it is possible to hide script errors? I get popups and the user has to click on yes/no if he wants to continue with the scripts on the page.

My latest project shows this error but the page with HTML5 (animations) seems to work fine. Can I just hide this message somehow?

You could try to disable script debugging in Internet Explorer.

Please reply back with your results as I am too trying to figure this out, the only thing stopping me is that my PC doesn't show this error.

(What happened with the edit function of the forum ?)


Disabling script debugging in IE can be made by setting the following values as shown :

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"Disable Script Debugger"="yes"
"DisableScriptDebuggerIE"="yes"

The error disappeared a while ago but it is back now. Dont know why.
I will try it, thanks!

It may also help checking the documentation or searching the forums where the solution was posted repeatedly.

OMG! I have the manual open almost everytime I use AMS but I overlooked it somehow. :(
Script debugging was deactivated (both checks) but it showed the error above. But the Web.SetSilent fixed it. Thank you very much.

Hi. I noticed that many HTML5 features are not working in the built in web object. Is it possible to use another one which supports HTML5/more Javascript?

update: it seems even the latest version of IE does not yet support WebRTC to embed a html5 multiplayer game. but will this work with the web object if a new IE version is released? Or is it possible to update the web object?

Are there other plugins to use chrome as browser in your app?

[Ulrich]

The web object is an ActiveX control, installed as part of the current Internet Explorer on your computer. If you update Internet Explorer on your or your customer's computer, you will also be using a newer Web Object when the application is executed (unless Microsoft chooses not update the control for some reason). Only Microsoft can tell you which features they are going to support in future releases of the Web Browser control. One thing you should be aware of is that the default user agent of the Web Browser control is IE 7, but you can set the browser emulation from Internet Explorer 7 to 11 as desired (as long as there is indeed an IE11 on the target system).

I know this is a bump but I missed this reply, how do you change the emulation in AMS?

I have done this for autorun.exe and appname.exe with dword (10001) but it does not seem to be putting it in to IE 10 mode.

[Ulrich]

I don't appear to have any problems here. But I am not sure where you got this value "10001" from.

That is the value for version 10 well this is what I read on a few websites.

I just edited it from 11001 so that last value was wrong but I tried 9 up.

Could I ask ask for the source of that little example
