Hi Vladimir,

Thanks for your reply.

This is really strange. I have just downloaded the latest JExplorer - 1.6, but it doesn't solve the problem.

To be precise I run the following code:

package core;

public class ChildBrowserSample

{

    private static final String HTML_CONTENT =

            "" + "" + "Open Google in another window. " + "";

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception

    {

        UIManager.setLookAndFeel(WindowsLookAndFeel.class.getName());

        JFrame frame = new JFrame("JExplorer - Child Browser Sample");

        frame.setSize(800, 600);

        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

        frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);

        Browser browser = new Browser();

        browser.setContent(HTML_CONTENT);

        JPanel panel = new JPanel();

        // set layout

        panel.setLayout(new BorderLayout());

        panel.add(browser, BorderLayout.CENTER);

        frame.getContentPane().add(panel);

        frame.setVisible(true);

        browser.waitReady();

        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(frame, "Click link that opens child window.", "JExplorer", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);

        final HTMLElement element = (HTMLElement)browser.getDocument().getElementById("theLink");

        // execute operation that opens child and get reference to the opened child (new method)

        System.out.println("Before..");

        WebBrowser child = waitChild1(browser, element);

        System.out.println("After..");

/*

        // execute operation that opens child and get reference to the opened child (old method)

        WebBrowser child = waitChild2(browser, element);

*/

        String childTitle = child.getDocument().getTitle();

        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(frame, "Child title: " + childTitle + ".", "JExplorer", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);

    }

    private static WebBrowser waitChild1(WebBrowser browser, final HTMLElement element)

    {

        return browser.waitChildCreation(new Runnable()

        {

            public void run()

            {

                // click on link that opens popup window

                element.click();

            }

        });

    }

    private static WebBrowser waitChild2(WebBrowser browser, final HTMLElement element)

    {

        // Start track child window creation

        browser.trackChildren();

        // click on link that opens popup window

        element.click();

        // get reference to popup window

        return browser.waitChildCreation();

    }

}

When the JFrame opens, I click the "OK"-button. The text "Before" is then written, and the small Google-window is opened as a child-window. I then close this child-window and finally the JFrame, but the text "After" is never written, and the remaining statements are never reached.

I am running:

- JExplorer 1.6

- JDK1.5.0_06

- IE6.0, SP 1 (all cookies deleted)

- no pop-up blocker enabled

Any idea how to get closer to the problem?

Jesper

Hi again,

One further comment.

I have now tried to run the ChildBrowserSample on both Windows XP and Windows 2000. The "CiceroUIWndFrame"-error only appears on XP, however the basic problem remains the same in both setups.

Jesper

Hi again,

I have tried to run JExplorer 1.6 on a Windows 2000 computer without Office installed, and unfortunately the problem remains the same.

Any further ideas?

Regards,

Jesper

P.S.: Could some of the other users out there try and run the ChildBrowserSample-example to see if I am the only one with this problem?

Hi again Vladimir,

Thanks for your help, that explains it.

I don't think that IE 6.0 SP2 is available for Windows 2000 - at least not yet. Actually I am not familiar with the way these service packs for IE are numbered relative to the Windows-version.

What I am saying is that - at least the moment - JExplorer 1.6 will not work properly with Windows 2000, which I guess is a problem for many users (myself included) who prefer Windows 2000 to Windows XP.

You could of course consider making the JExplorer-code dependent of the actual service pack, but that could mean a lot of housekeeping inside JExplorer I guess.

In general however I think you should have these possible Windows 2000/XP-differences with respect to IE in mind in order not to limit the use of JExplorer.

Regards,

Jesper
