In the mentioned URL, press the "Lotto" logo on the left side. The page that
occurs has an Java applet called IpsBallanceApplet, this one does not work
correctly in Firefox, and keeps firefox keeps reloading the whole page.
The only thing to do is to close the whole window to get out.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open the page.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
-

Expected Results:  
The applet should have read a smartcard.. and the page should have displayed
some info in the applet "window"

Here is the info from the Javascript console:

Error: Error in parsing value for property 'cursor'.  Declaration dropped.

There ought to be an FAQ on:

Java is not javascript. Java output and messages go to the java console
(if you have it - I think that Firefox doesn't); Javascript and CSS
output and messages go to the Javascript COnsole.

The 'cursor' property is properly limited to a few values 
http://www.w3schools.com/css/pr_class_cursor.asp and you
were using a non-standard one. The declaration is harmless.

Comment 2

[Ben Fowler]

Your page has 71 mark-up errors

When I click on the log, there is some activity and the page reloads
once. There is no problem with Firefox, and no evidence that the 
Java is running

To see the applet you need to open the URL
http://www.norsk-tipping.no/gar/wco?event=GETNETTMINIBANK&applettype=WEBTELLER

and there is some javascript that should do this, but doesn't ...

This shortened file works as expected. This may be WFM, please reply if you
think
I am missing something

Comment 4

[Tor Harald Thorland]

Maby this is way out of what you need to track down whats wrong but please guide
me to get it right.
I'm no Firefox or Java expert :-)
At the bottom it is the outputs wich i get when I use IE.

I have removed all Java installed in my computer and tryed to acces the page
again, firefox told me that I needed a plugin, and i downloaded 
J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 from firefox. Install went OK.

Then I accesed the following page:
http://www.norsk-tipping.no/page?id=17

Then tis is what's in the status field:

Transfering data from www.norsk-tipping.no
Waiting for www.norsk-tipping.no
Done
Transfering data from www.norsk-tipping.no
Waiting for www.norsk-tipping.no

And then it goen on & on again......


If I then open the Java console from the "Java Coffee Cup" in the System Tray
It reads the following.

This is Bugzilla. You are analysing a problem with Java. Very people
here have deep knowledge of IE.

You are unlikely to get a resolution of your problem here, unless
someone recognises what is going on. I would suggest that you
find a forum that deals with Java, or enagage a Consultant to
debug your appplet. I suspect that the first thing to do is
ascertain how it is that the Java libraries are reporting errors.

Do you still have the source of the applet?

Comment 6

[Tor Harald Thorland]

I don't think you understand me correctly... the reason why I put the Java thing
in here is that this web page loads CORRECTLY with Internet Explorer.
When I fire up the same page in Firefox the page got unnormal behavior, and I
cant use the page. Thats why I brought the question in here.
I don't have anything from the applet, since it belongs to a big norwegian
company dealing with lottery/football bets etc.

So my question is: why does'nt this page work in Firefox.. when the other web
readers can take it?

Are Comment 2 or Comment 3 of any help here? Do either work for you?

Comment 8

[Tor Harald Thorland]

Comment 2 works perfectly. shows what it is supposed to do.
Comment 3 sends med to a "white" page whith the text "nettminibank>>" and if I
press that i'm sendt to the www.norsk-tipping.no.

but the page in comment #4 (and #1) is still not working.

The 'white page' is a small test case which should either show the bug without
any accidental complications, or show that Firefox is working correctly. When
I click the link, the applet pops up in its window, and the page re-directs.
To be honest, I think that this shows that Firefox is working correctly
(and that therefore you may need to adjust the scripts or markup on your page).

I have already replied to comment 4 . I certainly get some java errors
(and if you need to see them, I could attach a copy), but these are
of no help as they just show that I don't have installed some
necessary libraries (probably for reading a smartcard). Unlike yours,
my errors are in applet code e.g.

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no JniPcsc5 in java.library.path
	at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1344)
	at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Runtime.java:744)
	at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:815)
	at jni.pcsc5.Pcsc5.<clinit>(Pcsc5.java:6)
	at a.a.e.a.c.<init>(c.java)

Analysing Java errors is almost certainly outside (even if only just)
the mission of Bugzilla, and I would suggest that you ask someone who
knows your code. 

I am quite happy to look at this again, if you are persuaded that 
there is a possibility of a problem with Firefox, however, I do think
that I would need to see your sources, and this is another reason
for thinking that Bugzilla is not the appropriate place. 

I can't be absolutely certain, but this Report may be WFM.

View the attached video files (run them in 1024X768 / full screen)
It shows the Firefox, and then the IE (takes a little time)

I will upload it to:www.techmarsystems.com/ie.avi & firefox.avi 600 & 800Kb is
to large for bugzilla)
