98362 - No Java to Javascript when Applet started throug <object> tag

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[Magnus.Kessler]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.3) Gecko/20010801
BuildID:    2001080110

Java to Javascript communication fails when an applet is started through
the <object> tag. The same applet works fine when invoked through the <embed> or
<applet> tags

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. place the attached html und class files into a directory
2. open the file myapplet_object.html in mozilla


Actual Results:  after the page is loaded the applet starts, but then prints a
stacktrace in the java console:

netscape.javascript.JSException: JSObject.getWindow() requires mayscript
attribute on this Applet

	at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Native Method)

	at sun.plugin.liveconnect.PrivilegedConstructObjectAction.run(Unknown Source)

	at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)

	at sun.plugin.liveconnect.SecureInvocation.ConstructObject(Unknown Source)

Note that the mayscript parameter is set.

Expected Results:  the applet should redirect the browser to
http://www.mozilla.org. 

The same applet works fine with the other two html files (myapplet_applet.html,
my_applet_embed.html), where the applet is invoked through the <applet> and
<embed> tags.

With myapplet_object.html the expected behaviour is observed in IE 5.5.

This was previously marked as a duplicate of 80802. However 80802 has been 
marked as fixed, and the behaviour described here can still be found in the 
latest nightly builds. Can someone please have another look?

This bug is already fixed by a fix for bug 109039. I propose to close it
as fixed by bug fix for 
109039.
