Internent display of forms

Scriptcase 8 Discussion
#1

Hi,

I am about to be driven to the bottle

I have an application (one to many form) www.clbls2.com.au/saftgt, when I use IE or FF on my internal network, the same network where the application is hosted, it displays correctly. See attached image.

When I display from the internet, it is incorrect , see attached image.

This app display details a car and then up to 4 photos of the car in a one to many form

Things that I have tried include

clear all cache and history
Scriptcase V8…latest updates
upgrade to PHP 5.4
what I have noticed pressing quick ctrl f5 a couple of time in quick succession from the internet sometimes corrects the problem.
Sometimes if I click to the next image and return the first image it corrects the problem

The only difference between the internet and internal network is I have a Fritz box modem (besides all the the HW on the internet before the image gets to the external browser)

What I have noticed is the details of the car are displayed very quickly, however it takes a while to display the iframes with with the images.
Is there a time out problem somewhere and ctrl F5 sometimes corrects this …i have run out of ideas…appreciate any assistance in this

Export both to files and do a file compare. You may find the issue then.

I guess your problem is due to the fact that the browser downloads the images asyncronously.

Outside your local netwrok it’s likely the image is downloaded as last, after the browser has already sized the page and cannot adjust the page size anymore.

Inside your local network, the image is downloaded much quicker, enough to know its dimensions before finishing to paint the page.

You may try with this:

i found myself with a very similar problem and that’s why i opened a topic in the forums about how to force a form to use the entire space of the screen, this is the link i hope this works for you.

Long story short i force the iframe to use the 100% of the visual height, by using vh units on the application css.

Hi All,

Thank you for your reply and appreciate the help. With my limited knowledge of php scripting i have implemented the change as below in my php.ini file. It does not change anything

output_buffering 12288 12288

I will need to study kafecadm option in detail to understand how that fits into my scritcase app…which may take me days…any other ideas or assistance would be appreciated

www.clbls2.com.au/saftgt

When displayed from the internal network it shows the correct sized details screen.

when displayed from the internet it shows the incorrect sized details screen.

Interesting I see a: height: 184px; in the source code.

<iframe border=“0” id=“nmsc_iframe_liga_form_gt_register_upload” marginwidth=“0” marginheight=“0” frameborder=“0” valign=“top” height=“100” width=“100%” name=“nmsc_iframe_liga_form_gt_register_upload” scrolling=“auto” src="/saftgt/form_gt_register_upload/?script_case_init=834&script_case_session=548g3m4k1rcsad15h8vis4oo92&script_case_detail=Y" style=“height: 184px;”></iframe>

This does tell me that the iframe is 184 pixels in height.

I would try this in the onLoad event of your first (outermost) form:

echo "<style> #nmsc_iframe_liga_form_gt_register_upload { height: 100vh !important;} </style>";

HI Dave,

That works great, however i get a “close output” block in the middle of the screen. click next details for the next car and the box appears

I have limited PHP knowledge and tried to comment things out, but no luck. Appreciate your help. See attached screen

hi…sorry same link www.clbls2.com.au/saftgt

That thing is from your debug window which you left on apparently. In firefox use F12, and use the little square with an arrow in it on the window that appears. Click that one and oint to your window and you will see that it says that it is the debug window. Tip of the day: get firefox and use F12 or get the firebug extension on firefox as well and use F12. It will show a lot of interesting stuff for any web developer.

henryluiz,

Yes, just edit the included form and select Application in the left menu and turn off debugging.

All fixed except for IE

Hi All,

Thank you for the help. Dave you piece of code worked and after disabling the debug it looks good. However only for Firefox and Chrome. IE Ver 8 it still does not display correctly. Normally I would not worry about this, however IE is widely used and appreciate an ideas on this problem.

see attachment.

same address www.clbls2.com.au/saftgt

Hi,

This problem has returned. I have now moved the site to the cloud. I have implemented the fixes previously discussed. Hosting the same site on my in house servers does not have this problem

Web site url is…http://www.safairmontgt.com.au/GT_Details/

I click the expand button on left it opens the full image and all further images are open fully.

appreciate any help in this matter

Henry
