Java Script + Session Cookies enabled Browser? - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I am trying to find out if there is a way to run thie IG Index's IPhone trading platform on Windows Mobile 6.
The platform can be found under this address:
http://www.igindex.co.uk/dealing/lt/home.htm?locale=en_GB&webSiteId=igi
When I try to log in I get a message from the website:
"We have detected your browser is not setup to allow Session Cookies"
I enabled them in my standard WM6 browser but with no luck. I also know that the platform is using Java Script.
I would be gratefull for your advise.

[help] vb .net database development

hellooo,
i am looking for a good tutorial to help me get started developing a simple application which will run on a Windows CE 4.1 device and will connect via Wifi to a local sql server and return/store data.
I am a bit lost since i dont even know where to start, i.e. i need visual studio .net alone or another SDK or someting?
any pointers to a suitable tutorial will be much apreciated.
Not too sure what you need for CE4.1 but this is a good place to start
MSDN Windows Mobile
and here's one way for your DB I think
http://msdn.microsoft.com/mobility/...ry/en-us/dnppcgen/html/intro_winmobile_vb.asp
Haven't looked at the code but you can use either
1)SqlDataAdapter and SqlCommandBuilder to get the results into a DataTable
or
2)SqlDataReader
thanks kev, msdn should have enought info to get me started.
saw that tutorial on msdn but it wont do, since it connects to the sql server via web services or someting, i want to connect directly to the server and execute sql queries.
if you use an oleDBdaptor or sqladaptor it will be transparent for the
system that you are a pda and not a normal pc
wifi is transparent too it's all LAN
Just checkout the classes I mentioned they give examples: SqlDataReader SqlDataAdapter

Remote Desktop Mobile /console?

With the Windows version of Remote Desktop you can use the CLI switch '/console' to take control of the current console session of the server you are Remote Desktop'ing into as long as its 2003 Server or later. Is this possible with the Remote Desktop Mobile client?
With the Windows version you just start it with 'Start, Run, mstsc.exe /console' and this attempts to connect to the current console session.
Cheers

to my knowledge, not possible - at least I haven't managed to do it . Also see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=288506
note that if you don't strictly need RDP, some other, proprietary clients do offer console-like features - also see the above article for more info
This is an old topic, but one of the first Google search results for 'Remote Desktop Mobile connect to console'. I've been fiddling with this for the past few days and wanted to share my experience. I say experience because I haven't reallydone anything to achieve a /console connection with RDP mobile.
I'm running WinMo 6.5 Pro and using the standard RDP client it ships with. I am connecting to my home PC, which is running Win7x64 Ultimate. If I choose to log in as a currently logged in user and provide the proper credentials, I am connected to the existing session without any hassle.
I don't know if this is a new feature of terminal services/remote desktop on Win7, or a designed advantage of the mobile RDP client.
If you need to connect to a server console session specifically, take a look at this link on how to configure your server in advance to facilitate this:
EDIT: I'd post a link, but apparently my account is too new to do so. Oh well.

[Q] Needing JRE to access web page

I have a HTC Fuse with Energy Rom running 2Jul10 WWE on it and trying to no avail to get this web page to load that needs Java Virtual Machine.
Web Address:
Well it won't let me post the url, being a "new" member. I can add it when I have access.
Then select the first 3270 icon. I have tired with Opera 9.7 that is included in the ROM and it acts like it is going to load, but then errors out saying "A Java Virtual Machine is required to use WebConnect applets."
So then I try in Skyfire, but the progress bar goes about 3/4 of the way and then just hangs.
Also tried in IE, and says "A Java Virtual Machine is required to use WebConnect applets."
So I have searched and searched for a JVM for Windows Mobile 6.0 or 6.5 and installed JavaFX. But still doesn't work. I also tried the Java that is included with the ROM, leaving it running in background while going to the web site in either IE, or Opera. Still doesn't work.
Where to now? I have been able to get this WebConnect applet, a 3270 terminal emulator, to work on an iPhone using "Cloud browser" as the browser.

WIndows Phone 7 Browser as IOS\Android\Desktop

All -
I am trying to write a Web Browser application for Windows Phone 7 and I am able to create a general browser application (not that hard) but the specific site that I am writing the application for does not technically "Support" Windows Phone 7. What I want to do is to have the Windows Phone 7 browser somehow make the site think that it is an Android, IOS, or Desktop machine so the site can be viewed on windows phone. Currently I am just using the general Navigate argument to display the site in a browser control but have not seen any properties to change for the browser to control to tell it what to show the page as, any help would be greatly appreciated. I am doing all of my dev work in VS 2010.
Thank you,
John
You need to set the User-Agent header to a user-agent string used by one of the other browsers. There are a few apps that already do this., incidentally.

The Navigate() method accepts a parameter for user agent string. But will only work for initial page requests, not for clicked links from within the webbrowser content.

[APP] Privoxy for Windows RT

Hey guys.
I've recompiled Privoxy for Windows RT.
To use this, start the proxy (or install it as a service -- see Privoxy's user guide) and configure IE to use localhost:8118 (by default) as your HTTP (and/or HTTPS) proxy.
At this point both the Desktop (if Protected Mode is enabled) and Metro versions of IE won't be able to connect to the internet; run this in an administrator command prompt:
Code:
CheckNetIsolation.exe loopbackexempt -a -n=windows_ie_ac_001
CheckNetIsolation.exe loopbackexempt -a -n=windows_ie_ac_122
(The first line is for Metro IE, second line is for Desktop IE)
Hope this would save you some CPU power from those pesky web ads!
Once you run those, do you need the RT to be jailbreaked?

all desktop software except that preinstalled on the tablet needs jailbreak beforehand
