    - ie 7 links toolbar doesnt stick Hi Bulls & Bears, To reset the IE7 toolbar layout 1. Close all open IE windows. 2. Find the Key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\WebBrowser in the registry. 3. Rename the value ITBar7Layout (eg. ITBar7Layout-old) 4. Open IE7, it will now have the default Toolbar layout. Right click on the toolbar and select Links from the toolbar context menu. The links bar should now appear on your toolbar (see below if it doesn't) 5. Close IE7. This will save the toolbar layout settings back to the registry. Check the registry key above and you will see that a new ITBar7Layout value will have been created. Open IE7 again and it should have the links toolbar in the position that you saved it. If the Links toolbar still does not appear.... Open the registry editor (regedit) and navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F2CF5485-4E02-4f68-819C-B92DE9277049} It should look like the following Code Snippet Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F2CF5485-4E02-4f68-819C-B92DE9277049}] @="&Links" "MenuTextPUI"="@ieframe.dll,-13138" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F2CF5485-4E02-4f68-819C-B92DE9277049}\InProcServer32] @="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\ieframe.dll" "ThreadingModel"="Apartment" If this does not match your registry entries, copy and paste the above into notepad and the save the file as a .reg file. Double clik on the file you saved to merge the entries back into the registry. As a matter of interest, before you try to merge the above back into your registry, please export your values and post them back here. I suspect that blank values for any of the @,MenuTextPUI or an Incorrect ThreadingModel values may prevent the Links bar from appearing, even though it is listed in the IE7 Toolbar context menu.

    - How to catch the change of toolbar icons size? How to track the state of IE window? Hi, No, The documentaion says that you should have 2 icon sizes, 22x22 px and 16x16 px, but this is not required. I have made toolbar buttons with normal sized icons (32x32) and even 48x48. They are resized automatically when rendered in the toolbar. Regards. Tag: Internet Explorer Extension Development IE7 development questions Internet Explorer Development

    - QuickTime plug in problem I have had video on web pages, using the usual object/embed tags to play QuickTime video and they were working just fine. Suddenly (I believe after switching to IE 7), I'm getting plug-in errors. When I run the page from my c: drive, I'm asked to allow blocked content and then it plays fine. But when I point my browser to the website, I don't get a prompt and I get an error message. Can anyone explain why this might be and how to correct it Many thanks.

    - Drag/Drop Address Bar Link/Shortcut Problem How long ago did it stop working for you If you drag a link to your desktop, does it do the same thing (create a shortcut with the URL rather than the text of the link) On my system, dragging the page icon from the address bar still creates a link with the page title... which means something is misbehaving on your end.

    - IE Forms / Caret Position Bug?? I'm using IE 7, and working with an ASP.NET page. If I click on a form field (textbox or textarea on this page) at the same time that one of my regular expression validators fires (making the page move down a bit), my text caret appears in a non-editable, standard HTML section of the page. I can then type away, or use backspace to remove static HTML that was there. If I press the enter key, the text caret moves to the field I initially tried to click on. Any ideas on what might be going wrong I've captured a short video demonstrating this strange behavior. It is available at http://screencast.com/t/W6uzr4Sta5 .

    - what is this? plz help I am still tracking down this on the network I admin, but I can tell you what I know so far, maybe it will help you or someone else: We have a residential (ie: I don't control what is on them) network here of up to 500 computers at any one time. Currently there is a machine doing an ARP-cache poisoning attack against the network. For some unknown reason, it is inserting the string "1^LIBraBBGvB8i~o+Z~UU L5{B~SLIB5C" into HTTP responses just after the HTTP headers. I presume (NOTE: this is speculation, I have not yet been able to examine the machine in question) that this is due to a trojan/worm or other malware on the system performing the attack, possibly trying to spread itself to other computers on the subnet accessing the web running a vulnerable web browser - although I have not yet identified the effect of that string, so it may be for some other purpose. I suggest you check other machines on your network for possible compromises. Use a program like wireshark to examine network traffic to see if there are a continuous stream of ARP responses that _appear_ to be from your router to every other IP address in the subnet, but telling them in incorrect MAC - the computer with that MAC will be the culprit - you may use nmap to find the IP address of the machine. Alternatively if you are using a managed switch, you can look for the MAC that maps to just about every IP address on the subnet.

    - ActiveX Modal Dialogs do work in IE7 Here are some key points towards working around the problem. 1. With the above example, the problem does not present itself if you change the threading model from " Apartment Threaded " to " Single Threaded ". This works in both IE6 and IE7 so far. I'll bet this fixes a lot of people's problems. 2. Behavior is slightly different between specifying Call objForm.Show(vbModal) and Call objForm.Show(vbModal, Me) In IE6, the top Show method is more susceptible to modal dialogs being stuck behind the Internet Explorer window. It only occurs when the dialog is in a different project than the control, however. We're not sure about IE7 entirely yet. Unfortunately, if we set all items in our product to single threaded, it crashes IE7. So, we're still in a rut. Meanwhile, I fight back the urge to complain about IE7 in all caps.

    - Help writing an extension for IE Hi Belassal, You can try the same javascriptlet with IE6 (not IE7 though as it does not support the javascript: protocol in the Addressbar). Just copy your FF javascript to the address bar of IE6 and prefix it with javascript: eg. javascript:alert('hello world'); Method 2. - Place the scriptlet in an Internet Shortcut(IE6 and 7) Open up Notepad type in url=javascript:{your javascript goes here} IconFile={the url to your favorite icon} IconIndex=1 Save the file with a .url extension (make sure you have FileType=All selected in the filetype dropdown) in your Favorites or Links folder Method 3 - Place the scriptlet in a button script (IE6 and 7) Open notepad and enter something similar to <script language=javascript defer> {your javascript goes here} </script> Save the file as a .htm or .html extension. with all methods you have to be aware of the differences between scripting engines used by FF and IE. Ie uses the external object to access the browser and the document objects. (search msdn for external.menuArguments) and of coarse document.all is a no-no for FireFox. As far as making an installer for your scriptlete I have a utility to build a msi for Button Add-ons, but my site iecustomizer.com is currently off the air due to a hardware failure. So if you would like to publish your script for the general public or want it packaged to an installer, send us a note and I would be happy to do it for you. Regards.

    - Typing issue IE7 with Toolbars Paul, Does the issue occur when you're running IE with add-ons disabled If not, then the problem lies with one of your add-ons. At that point, you should selectively enable each add-on until you've located the one causing the problem. Once you've identified the culprit, you should check the publisher's web site to see if there's an update. Hope this helps... -- Lance Tag: Internet Explorer Extension Development IE7 development questions Internet Explorer Development

    - Internet Explorer/websites/this is disturbing... This really isn't all that uncommon, annoying, and kinda creepy, but by no means hard to come by. The chances are that the site did not leach your info from somewhere you gave it away at, like a store. Some sites provide services that allow you to find out what basic area a public IP address is, I am not sure how, but it probobly has to do with what IPs are assigned where. These sites are usually scriptable and you can access them from your web site code for a price. They are mainly used for sites that provide mirrors to files and choose the server closest to your area automatically for best speed. However, these services aren't perfect. I live in the middle of nowhere and pages like the one you described say I live in the city 60 miles away from me, even though there is a small city 10 miles away in the same direction. Oh, and I don't think this quite belongs to Microsoft DEVELOPMENT Network, but I am not one to say.

Anatolik

Greetings to everybody.

I'm currently updating my BHO for IE7 support, and have several questions.

I have to handle mousemove/mouseout event for padlock button, which designed for secure connections.

Is there any option available instead of subclassing

Where can i get Platform SDK which will contain new flags for tab events

Thanx for attention.

Re: Internet Explorer Extension Development IE7 development questions

Dave Massy

Hi,

Intercepting the SSL interface is not something we'd advocate. In IE7 there is not programmatice acecss to the tabs. this is something we are considering for a future version of IE.

Thanks
