so does this mean that you can't build the links server side with
something like PHP? Javascript is the only option?

We are using relative links in Javascript to open the attachments.

Could please anyone shed light on what might be causing this.


Well, you've answered your own question! Use absolute paths in your

Re: [WSG] Safari not loading website

2005-11-16 Thread Jonathan O'Donnell 

Hello Lakshmi

I am using Mac OS X 10.3.9, so I thought that I would document the  
problem.  I'm not a JavaScript/EcmaScript bunny, so I'm afraid I can't  
do more than that.  Hopefully someone else on the list can point you to  
a fix.


The problem is real.   When you use  
javascript:OpenAttachmentWithFullPath, Safari tries to point to  
localhost, rather than the base path.


As a test page, I used:
http://www.agd.nsw.gov.au/lawlink/Corporate/ll_corporate.nsf/ 
vwPreviewActivePages/attorney_generals_department_court_recording


I tried to download something that uses javascript:OpenAttachment:
Same_Day_Transcript_Newcastle_Order_Form_text.doc

And something that uses javascript:OpenAttachmentWithFullPath:
/Lawlink/Corporate/ll_corporate.nsf/vwFiles/ 
Transcript_fees_RSB2005.doc/$file/Transcript_fees_RSB2005.doc


First, I check that the page was valid:
http://validator.w3.org/

It wasn't.  You can see the results at:
http://validator.w3.org/check? 
uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.agd.nsw.gov.au%2Flawlink%2FCorporate%2Fll_corporate 
.nsf%2FvwPreviewActivePages%2Fattorney_generals_department_court_recordi 
ng


Then I tried to replicate the problem with various browsers:
javascript:OpenAttachment
Firefox 1.0.6: OK
Safari 1.3.1: OK
Opera 8.5: OK
Internet Explorer 5.2.3: OK

javascript:OpenAttachmentWithFullPath
Firefox 1.0.6: OK
Safari 1.3.1: Fail!
Opera 8.5: OK
Internet Explorer 5.2.3: OK

Sure enough, when I tried to download using  
javascript:OpenAttachmentWithFullPath on Safari 1.3.1, I received the  
error message:
Safari can’t open the page  
“http://localhost/Lawlink/Corporate/ll_corporate.nsf/vwFiles… 
anscript_fees_RSB2005.doc/$file/Transcript_fees_RSB2005.doc” because it  
could not connect to the server “localhost”.
