    • Component/s: Bridge

    • Workaround Exists:
      Yes
    • Workaround Description:
      Hide
      When the iframe and the included web-application are served from different domains IE will block the web-application from setting any cookies ("third-party cookies" how they call them). An icon in IE's status bar will show the blocked cookies.
      This issue can be fixed changing the IE's privacy level (Tools>Intenet Options>Privacy>Accept All Cookies) or serve the iframe and the web-application from the same domain.\

      Another solution would be to have a P3P descriptor. See http://www.oreillynet.com/lpt/a/2766 .

      ifaces apps aren't functioning correctly through iframes.

      "Hello everybody,

      first congrats to ice faces. We're using ADF Faces atm but some of the
      components are quite impressive, so I'll take a closer look the next few weeks
      ^_^ I love those pop-ups, really :-)

      I noticed an interesting glitch in ice faces that happens only in internet
      explorer and only if the ice faces site is displayed in an iframe.

      Create a html with the following content:
      Code:

       <html>
        <head>
        <title>
        IFrame Test
        </title>
        </head>
        <body>
        <a href="http://component-showcase.icefaces.org/component-showcase/"
      target="test">Show test</a><br>
        <a href="http://www.google.de" target="test">Google</a><br>
        <iframe src="http://www.icefaces.org" width="800" height="600" name="test">
        </iframe>
        </body>
       </html>
       


      If you open the file in a new internet explorer and click "Show test" the
      component suite showcase is displayed. Everyon any item results in the status
      monitor going active and then broken after about half a minute.
      I could solve this by clicking the other link and then the original one.
      Everything works fine then.
      I could reproduce this error on several machines, but only in internet explorer
      - no problem in firefox (of course?).

      Any ideas?

      Keep up the great work!

      Greetz,
      Mathias"
