if it's a script permission problem that requires signing the code for
additional privilege, you can find info for Mozilla/netscape at...
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/secu...d-scripts.html http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6164-10/signscpt.htm
will probably need another approach for IE users (at least java requires
different signing for the netscape, IE (and the plugin though the plugin
can use .jar's signed for netscape)
some IE info for applet signing is at...
http://www.suitable.com/docs/signingsignexp.html
or just goggle for how to sign applets and/or javascript
can probably jar and cab the script and sign like applets, then include the
signed script wih src="whatever"... where whatever is the appropriately
signed jar (or cab) As a note, IE can use .jar's but not signed .jar's
(at least, for applets)

I have a problem in a third-party system, as follows.
The system uses "web" forms to capture and save data. When the form
is called up it should "remember" some field contents from previous
sessions. It works intermittently, other times produces "error on
page" errors. I have narrowed it down to some lines in a Javascript
script that is called when opening the form and closing (saving the
data). The line is :-
form_data.load("EID_Settings")
or
form_data.save("EID_Settings")
I believe it is trying to load from an XML file. The problems seem to
be related to permissions on Windows XP. The XML file is saved to the
cache of the first user to run the system, therefore other users can't
access it. I have tried moving the cache for all users to a central
location - still doesn't work (I get a message about the "Internet
extensions").
Is there a way I can force the script to read and write from a
specifically named file (e.g. c:\app\eid_settings.xml) rather than use
the cache?
Any help greatly appreciated!
