If you log in and make your way to the link for your w2 you will find that and
empty PDF form is rendered by Acrobat. With IE it works as expected though there
is a minor delay in the info rendering.

Attachment: patch v1

it happens because we remove form file from temp location too
early, this patch delays temp files removing till plugin instance is active.

Why isn't nsActivePlugin::mStreams an nsISupportsArray?

on the trunk
mozilla/modules/plugin/base/src/nsPluginHostImpl.cpp,v  <--  
nsPluginHostImpl.cpp

Thanks all.
Nominating for the branch.

Changing to adt2/adt1.0.0-, as this is not needed until after MachV beta.

Comment 9

[rubydoo123]

branch justification:

Acrobat is the leading plug-in for rendering PDF files. Numerous sites utilize
PDF format to display content that should not be altered. As an example, even
our internal Tuition Assistance Application is in PDF format. Schools, colleges,
businesses and government agencies utilize PDF format for this same type
situation. By not having this fix checked into the branch, a very high
percentage of PDF files will not be displayed. How many target users access
these sites? That number would include users 1. who interact with government
agencies, 2. who go to college, 3. who have children that go to school/college,
4. that interact with financial institutions such as the IRS and banks.

did beard get an answer to his question?

Comment 13

[serge (gone)]

the patch (attachment 80657 [details] [diff] [review]) does not change the declaration of  
struct nsActivePlugin
{
...
  nsVoidArray*           mStreams;

which was introduced by [e-mail] in the patch 
(attachment 38998 [details] [diff] [review]) to fix bug 54689 on 18 Jun 2001,
so I cannot answer this question, but if there is need to change the declaration 
of mStreams to nsCOMPtr<nsISupportsArray> we have to file new bug on it, with 
explanation why we need such changes.

Beth E asked for help verifying this bug.  I do not see instructions on which
social security number to use to actually log in?  (It didn't like mine ...)
Is there a test SS number?

Comment 16

[serge (gone)]

why you didn't like yours, it's secured site and believe it or not you'll get 
your real W2 form.

Comment 17

[shrirang khanzode]

doesn't adobe need to be a member with this site to let their employees access 
this stuff? if it's not, then Liz can't verify..no ?

Comment 18

[serge (gone)]

oops, I'm sorry, I misread Liz comments:(
yeah, probably adobe has to be a member of this site

Comment 19

[lmcquarr]

Well, you probably don't want to give me you SS number since you don't 
me to look at your REAL W2! :-)

Comment 20

[shrirang khanzode]

 no, u have my word this is working fine. Thx!!  (:^)

Liz, this patch fixes receiving FDF data, probably you can use
http://acroeng.adobe.com/BrowserTestSuite/forms/pingform.pdf 
as a test case, but I'm not quiet sure from description 
http://acroeng.adobe.com/BrowserTestSuite/forms.html
what I suppose to get after I hit submit button, no matter what I typed in the 
form, I always get
>Content-Type: application/vnd.fdf
>
>%FDF-1.2
>%ту╧╙
>
>1 0 obj
><< 
>/FDF << /Fields [ << /V (You may type something in here if you wish)/T

I'll back up shrir :-) I verified this is fixed using win XP trunk build
2002051408, linux trunk build 2002051409, Mac OS 9 trunk build 2002051408

Comment 23

[lmcquarr]

We have a secure server here inside our firewall with 
a the "pingform" test case for Acrobat forms and FDF.
I tested it with trunk build Win 2002051408 and Acrobat 5.05
and it worked.

tested this on win98 using branch bits from 20020516 and I was able to
successfully view my W2

I also ran through Plug-in verification testing as well to ensure this check-in
did not affect other plug-ins.
