We have a customer that has upgraded from WF537 to WF768 on their test server (HP-UX B.11.11 PA-RISC 32on64bit). Corporate standard for browsing is still IE 6.0.2900.2180 SP2.

Now during testing we have discovered that when a user logs into MRE, the MRE applet occupies a smaller area in the MRERIGHT frame. Functionally MRE is working fine. However the reduced use of valuable browser real-estate is annoying the customer.

Has anyone else noticed this behaviour also, or is this a known issue?

Clinton,

What version of the JRE are they using on the clients.
That's more likely to be the problem than the browser version.

JG,
They are using jre1.5.0_06.
You think that might be outdated?
They still have their WF537 in production and when you login to MRE, the applet correctly fills the full frame.
Any other ideas?

jre1.5.0_06

Minimum certified JVM for 7.6.4 and up is 1.6_03 however I would opt for 1.6.0_12

There are plenty of documented issues with MRE and Caster applets when using the wrong JVM

Thanks a stack,
Will see what we can do to twist their arms to upgrade.

also note
that in 53 the url for the applet was completely different. in 53, you go to MRLOGON.
As Inspector Clouseau says, 'not any more'.
In 7 you go to /ibi_apps/login/mr/mr_login.jsp?
Mind you, in 7 you can still get to MRLOGON, it still exists, but it looks like *&%(^ ;
So make sure your users are pointing to the proper place.
