Hi everybody,

I'm using webfocus 7.1 and recently I've been getting complains that a report that I posted
on our intranet site is not working for some customers. It's an Employee directory. It has a
launch page at the top that filters data based on first name or last name and Organization.For
Organization I'm using a listbox which is dynamically populated and for the customers
that the report is not working, the listbox is not even populated and the command boutton does
not do any thing. Has this ever happened to anybody here? Here's my code minus style. Any
help would be greatly appreciated:

Hi Rohab,
Sounds like it's NOT an issue with your html page, but something in your environment. Check to see whats different between one that works and the one that fails. Check the browser versions, settings, javas, etc.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for responding RichH. Where do I look to check for Java and Javascript versions? I am using javascript version in the report, but is webfocus java-based?

If I run your code on my machine i get an error on "ibigblloadCss(null);"

Give this link below Techsupport and see if that'll help: http://techsupport.informationbuilders.com/ibi/sps_i/21082019.html

Hey Fortune Cookie,

I get the "Page Cannot be dispalyed" error when I click on your link. I took the CSS out of my code and it doesn't have the real name of the reports so I'm sure you'll get an error trying to run it, but I can copy the whole report if you think it helps in diagnosing the problem.

Thank you,
Robab

Are the end users all using the same browser? I've ran into problems where listboxes won't populate dynamically from xml hold files when using FireFox. This was a WF bug which is fixed in 7.1.4

Hi linus,

Yes. I checked that yesterday and the users that had problem were using IE7 which is the same one I'm using and a lot of other users and none of us is having a problem.

Don't know if you were aware, but there is a software patch if you are using IE7 browser. That doesn't explain why yours works and others don't, but that's one of the first things Tech support will suggest.

The software patch is it an IE7 patch or a WF patch? I am having issues with when I run a fex and leave the IE window up, then run the fex again I get the error "No query information to decode" If I close the window and run it again it works fine. Any ideas anyone?
