Title: IE Print error from button on a browse record
Post by: terryd on July 11, 2011, 01:10:39 AM

Windows7 Ultimate 64Bit
Clarion8.8498
Nettalk 5.29
IE8 74 bit

I have got a button on a browse to print details from the record.
I get an error when browsing with IE8 (see IE8.png attached)
On all the other browsers I test the report prints correctly (Chrome-Firefox-Opera-Safari.png attached)
The file app.png shows the settings I have used.
Any help appreciated

Sorry to be a pest but can anyone confirm or deny the above. This happens every time I use IE8, but not with any of the other browsers

hard to confirm or deny from some screen-shots Terry.
Can you make a small example that duplicates the effect?

cheers
Bruce

I can duplicate the problem in IE8 here - although not in IE9 (IE8 mode) which suggests it's more of a bug in IE 8 than anything else.
I've also checked the output from the server, and it's identical in both cases. Indeed in IE8 if you press a F5 on the "blank tab" the report generates again, and displays.

I'll keep on the lookout for a work-around, but so far haven't had much joy.

One thing that did work was changing from a button to a string (ie a hyperlinked string). I did have to make a small tweak in 5.30 to make this work right - but then that did work.

Cheers
Bruce

Thanks Bruce, duplicates my findings. I'll give the hyperlinked string a go
