I was looking into this a bit further to see if I could pinpoint the cause and it looks as if the problem is a result of the creation of an IFRAME in the "orgApacheMyfacesPopupfixIE" JavaScript function.
What is the purpose of creating an IFRAME in IE? Is it because of IE's SELECT z-index bug or is there another reason. It seems the side affect is worse for HTTPS pages (for every page that has the control - when the popup is shown - the user is asked if they want to allow unsecure items to be displayed). Before I go and remove this call in JS for my own environment I wanted to know the rational behind it. Thanks, Andrew On 4/27/06, Andrew Robinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I don't think that the popup asks the server for anything. The HTML comes from javascript and the document.write method (which I opened a JIRA issue on). IE may not be liking the document.write being used in a secure page after the page has been finished loading. I cannot say for sure at all, but it would not surprise me. I opened JIRA so that document.write can be removed. document.write does not work with AJAX well at all and XHTML specification has removed that method, so it should not be used. Perhaps if the popup doesn't use this anymore the issue will go away.
