Known Issues
The majority of issues concerning the Web-enabled version of SkyLite involve the
operational interface to the Web browser. Product functionality, as far as connectivity and
emulations are concerned, is the same as with SkyLite.
General Issues
1. When embedded, the Web-enabled version of SkyLite defaults to the browser's
run-time directory and not to SkyLite’s run-time directory.
2. When embedded, context-sensitive help does not work for menu items, only for
toolbar buttons.
3. When embedded, OLE menu items have been removed, as it is not possible to
delete an OLE object.
4. A known design flaw in the browser's caching mechanism (in both Netscape and
earlier versions of Internet Explorer) means that initiating separate instances of
the same-named session results in only the first instance being presented when
browsing back/forward through sessions, or when accessing them through the
MSM from the taskbar. This problem is fixed in Microsoft's Internet Explorer
Version 4.0 and later, which will consistently start a new session.
Browser-Specific Issues - Netscape Navigator
1. After minimizing the Web-enabled version of SkyLite when embedded in
Netscape, focus is not returned when maximized. This problem appears to be
related to the plug-in.
2. When embedded in a Netscape frame, the Web-enabled version of SkyLite has
problems if the browser size is changed. The instance of SkyLite appears to be
lost, but can still be accessed through MSM. This problem appears to be related
to the browser, as it occurs with other DocObject servers.
Browser-Specific Issues - Microsoft Internet Explorer
1. When embedded within an Internet Explorer 4.0 frame and Internet Explorer 4.0
context menus are displayed, the SkyLite toolbar disappears. We believe this to
be a bug with Internet Explorer.
2. When closing a session from within Internet Explorer 4.0, another SkyLite startup
splash appears momentarily.
