Re: [Proto-Scripty] Ajax Updater running from a DVD under IE8

2010-02-16 Thread Walter Lee Davis
Sorry to bump this so soon, but my client is getting itchy. Has anyone  
seen anything like this, where an Ajax Updater will not run in a local  
file context under IE8? No errors on screen, but no updated content,  
either. I've updated to 1.6.1, moved my call to the updater from a  
document.observe to a Yahoo-style script block before /body, to no  
avail.


Thanks,

Walter

If you visit the preview version of the site here: http://files.libertyfund.org/pll 
 everything loads just fine under any browser.


This site is using 1.6.0.3, I haven't updated it yet to 1.6.1, and I  
can't recall if there was any work done in this area between those  
two versions.


Does this ring any bells for anyone? Is it going to be fix-able, or  
do you suspect it might be one of those IE features?


Thanks in advance,

Um, maybe I'm whack, but...
Doesn't an AJAX request need an HTTP server?  Am I correct in
understanding that you are just trying to distribute files/static
content?

Re: [Proto-Scripty] Ajax Updater running from a DVD under IE8

2010-02-16 Thread Walter Lee Davis
I'm doing a GET request using Ajax.Updater, and as far as I know, GET  
will work without a server. I use it all the time to test form layouts  
in a browser on my local computer.


I have a random quotation that loads into a DIV on the home page (you  
can see it here: http://files.libertyfund.org/pll ). It works in IE6,  
Firefox, Chrome, and Safari on the PC, Firefox Chrome, and Safari on  
the Mac. It just rubs IE8 the wrong way -- but only when run from the  
DVD.

Re: [Proto-Scripty] Ajax Updater running from a DVD under IE8

2010-02-16 Thread Walter Lee Davis
I have a cut-down example for anyone who has a moment to test. The  
linked zip contains these files:


_1.html
_2.html
_3.html
_4.html
_5.html
_6.html
_7.html
_8.html
_9.html
index.html
prototype.js

http://scripty.walterdavisstudio.com/local_ajax.zip

The page works fine under Safari or Chrome or Firefox on the PC when  
run locally (file:/// url) but fails to work in IE 8. IE8 shows an  
active content warning, then when I okay that, nothing further  
happens. IE6 shows the same warning, but once you okay it, everything  
works fine.


Thanks in advance,

Walter
