I am trying to access olemiss.edu with the Fuze. The site loads, but when it does I get the following error message:
Scripting alert: This page requires Netscape 3.0+ or IE 4.0+
It won't let me access sections of the site I need to.
I've tried PIE, Opera, and Skyfire (which is only half screen, and the keyboard sliding work-around won't work for me, but that's another problem for another time).
If any of you with the Fuze or Touch Pro, can access that site without that error message, please let me know what I need to do. Thanks in advance.
Iris browser seems to work

I am facing two problems with HTC Fuze (ATT)
1. When i disconnect phone, it automatically connects to EDGE. How to stop this?
2. When i search some of the sites on net, it prompts me with a message
"Please use Internet Explorer Version 5.5 or later".
Now as per WinMo 6.1, IE is latest. How to inform the website about browser capabilities?
I'm assuming you are using the new updated fuze rom.
1) It has been an issue that I have yet to find an answer to, but someone should come up with an explanation and execution of a cab for this at one point or time.
2) The site is confusing your phone's IE as something completely different. Your best bet is either have IE present itself in a different mode (Iris and Opera should be able to do it, so IE should have the same capabilities) or use Opera or Iris as a back up browser.
Hey Guys,
I have an issue with some of the browsers available for the android phone.
I would like to access work through my phone via VPN web access. I am sucessfull at this.
When I open my work page, it opens up in a popup window. This is okay too as I allow pop ups under settings.
The issue is, when I click on a case in this pop up window, there is an error thats comes up saying"Cannot open another pop up window, only one pop up window at a time". It is trying to open up my case in another pop up window, which it blocks.
I have used froyo 2.2 on a Nexus one, dell streak, galaxy s tab and motorola droid.
I also used Dolphin HD and Dolphin, with the same results.
I downloaded opera, and there was not even an option for allowing pop ups.
Do you guys have any ideas?
I would like to be able to do my work with out having to lug around a laptop everywhere I go.
Thanks again and Happy Holidays!

I would love to find out if this is an Android restriction or there are indeed browsers that support multiple pop ups (or can be tweaked to do so). There are some legit websites that actually rely on pop ups for various purposes (chat rooms for example). Old fashioned and annoying yes, but why punish the end users for it?
Darn, I have the same issue on my HTC EVO. My work website uses pop-ups, but I can't open the link on the pop-up that uses another pop-up! All legitimate pop-ups, not ad-ware. There must be a way to allow trusted sites or something.
Is there a solution to this issue??
Has anyone found an answer/fix to this issue? It is definitely an Android issue b/c I have the new HTC Sensation running Android Gingerbread 2.3, and everyone I know w/ an Android phone from 2 years ago to present has had this same issue....we can not open more than 1 popup window at a time. Like all have posted in this thread, I'm trying to access a number of different applications within my job's website (SWAlife - website for Southwest Airlines employees but specifically for flight attendants to change/trade their trips) and it relies on opening popups within popups but it just doesn't work w/ Android devices.
I've tried the stock browser, Dolphin, Opera mini, Skyfire, rotating the phone horizontally, keeping the setting in Landscape only mode while browsing, and of course, allowing Popups in the browser settings. I also need the browser to allow double-clicks to be just that - a double-click.....not a zoom in and out function.
Please, can someone tell me if there is a fix somewhere to this problem??? I'm interested in buying the new Samsung Galaxy S II but refuse to if I'm not able to access all elements of my job's website. Oh, and someone made a SWAlife app that's accessible with iPhone only (works perfectly & allows popups to open within popups) but I HATE to have to buy an iPhone just b/c of this app. :-(
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide!!
You know the SWAlife app is in the Android market too, but you will not be able to check the overtime call out list, not built in to the app yet, same with from iPhone app.

Yea, I've used the Android SWAlife app for some time but it only employees to make non-rev listings, provides company news and operational updates. No Crew Web Access or FA scheduling. In otherwords, this app is pretty useless :-( The one for iPhone, however, is EXACTLY what we need for Android. It allows pilots and FAs to manipulate their schedules in CWA (Inflight Crew Web Access)....it looks identical to what's in SWAlife on the web and functions just as if you were on a PC. Are you aware of another app in the Market that I might be missing that allows that? Thanks for your help!

I know this is an old problem, but try xScope browser in the market. I needed to be able to open more than one popup window and the website I was trying and failing to access with about 10 other browsers would not work until I tried this one.
I have the same problem. Your tip sounds good. I will give this browser a try. I hope that the search has an end.
This browser works for my sites where I need more than one pop-up. Thanks for the valuable information.
The question I have is, what the hell is wrong with android and java scrivpt ? every browser I try has problems with executing java based content. The stock browser and browser plus seem to take a holiday whenever they want. Text fields seem to migrate all over the page, and refuse to input text. If it does by some miracle it does work, selecting the next field is a crap shoot if it will work or wonk out. Is there a decent browser that doesnt choke on java ?
Try firefox (beta) or chrome.

Java and Javascript are two very different languages, Java is a language to be run on a VM (a modified version is actually used to run android) and Javascript is a scripting language used in webpages. Android does not support running Java apps, but that is not what you are asking. For your Javascript issues the default browser or chrome should do fine, the default browser has a user friendly way to always use desktop sites that you might want to check to have pages behave more like normal pages than mobile pages if you haven't already changed it.
My mistake about java and java script. I am more of a hardware guy than a software guy. I usually try to use the desktop site if I can. The problem I have is usually with a popup form of some kind. Comcast and Espn use simular forms. Using chrome works for most sites, but it is by no means the perfect browser. It is frustrating as of late the number of sites that seem to choke this tablet. Having 4 cores seems to have little benefit in rendering the webpage. Case in point, my dual core Sensation phone runs the desktop sites faster than this tablet.
I am having same issues (well my wife is). We purchased this device in hopes of it being able to double for her online classes and to take with us when out & about to entertain the kids when they do not want to sit still in restaurant etc. She is able to login into her site for school but when it comes to pop ups, applets and such it does not work. The tablet did receive the jellybean update and was hoping someone could offer some assistance in getting it working. I am somewhat a tech savvy guy and have turned on javascript, allowed popups, tried multiple browsers like dolphin, skyfire, the preloaded one, boat and none seem to allow her to do anything. I have not tried rooting or placing any sort of cooked roms in fear of messing it up. any help of steering in correct direction would be of greatest help.

Now are you using the stock browser or Chrome? Chrome might be better on account I think most sites see chrome as the desktop version and has better compatibility. Just make sure to use desktop version in the settings.
will try that out....i hoping this will cure the woes....but as far as browsers, tried the stock,opera,dolphin,skyfire,& boat. never tried chrome but willing to give it a whirl. if i have any issues, ill come back to this thread. THANKS again....
My job requires company access to an intranet site that requires IE for access. Their solution for mobile needs is to haul an IE-equipped laptop around, but I obviously would rather connect in the field with my tablet via VPN.
All the solutions I've found via searching online have ranged from "you can't do that" to a virtual desktop that's way out of reach for in individual user. And due to the way the sites are built, only IE will work. This is not about choosing a different browser.
So does anybody know if any work is being done for those of us needing to use/emulate IE on our tablets? I know from my google searches that this is a common problem, so hopefully somebody is working on it.
I think that the only thing you can do is to have a laptop or a desktop at home with IE and access it through something like Splashtop.
You can also enable Wake-on-Lan on that PC so that it can stay off and it turns on only when you need it.
Check out Opera. I'm not sure about the Android version, but the desktop versions allow you to change the user agent (a string included with every page request that includes the OS you are using, browser, browser version, rendering engine, etc.) so that it looks to other websites like you're using IE. I'm pretty sure Dolphin also has this, and I know that there is an extension for Firefox that can do this, too. Whether or not it will work in your case, I can't guarantee, but it's worth a shot.
Solution!
The "desktop user agent" in the Dolphin browser app did the trick. Thanks to those who replied with suggestions.
Firstly, allow me to thank the wonderful people here at xda for a great site that that obviously helps out so many folk with such diverse problems.!
Okay... I am originally versed and quite happy with my LG G2 (ATT rooted.. again thanx xda) but without finances to replace my broken touch screen, I have been on an extended temporary demotion to the cheapiest Android I could find... the StraightTalk LGL15g.
Trying once again to have 'free reign' over my OS (4.4.2 kitkat, same as the aforementioned G2) I rooted with chainfire's xda's link to Supersu (marked as 'stable'). It seemed to work fine with little to no obvious problems although very limited acess to files through Sqlite... then slowly deteriated in stability and is now resident to some very fustrating behaviours that I cannot find resolve for:
1) web pages 'refreshing' if I try to use an app or another web browser tab... and losing all my work (if the page had forms), and everything I had typed in 'reply' text boxes.
2) I can no longer upload photos to webpages oras attachments on emails.
The same 'refreshing' takes place. e.g. On facebook or other date sites that I use.. I click 'upload photo'... the file browser opens and I browse and select normally.. but when I 'ok it' instead of the upload process beginning, I am back to a refreshed page where I am prompted to 'upload photo' again.
ANY help, advice, or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.!
