Access is denied for extendedDataTable.js.faces IE 7

[ionutbarau]

Hi guys,

After testing my app on IE 7 I get Access is denied for extendedDataTable.js.faces. ExtendedDatatable has a wierd behaviour, no scroll, no selection and after a couple of refresh the header borderes are messed up.Everything is fine on IE8 and Firefox. I am using Richfaces 4 and WAS 7. Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks a lot !

Ok got it

It was due to a conditional css statement.By the way does somebody know how to add a correct conditional css statement in jsf ? It does not work like this:

<!--[if lte IE 7]>

<h:outputStylesheet name="/css/iestyle.css"/>

<![endif]-->

Neither using link tag..

Thank you

I think you could use pure client side solution for that:

<script>

function loadStylesheet(shref){

          var fileref=document.createElement('link');

          fileref.setAttribute("type","text/css");

          fileref.setAttribute("rel","stylesheet");

            fileref.setAttribute("href", shref);

          document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(fileref);

}

  if (checkForIE7Version()){

                    loadStylesheet('ie7.css');

          }else{

                    loadStylesheet('anyOther.css');

  }

</script>

checkForIE7Version method could use http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.browser/ - it should perfectly fit your needs.

Hi, thanks for your response

I already tried this solution with just pure javascript, whithout jquery. I didn't find a way to include jquery in my page. As far as i know jquery is bundled inside richfaces, so there is no need to add jquery.js to my project. I have tried adding <h:outputScript  name="jquery.js"/> as i found out on google but it doesn't work.Tried <rich:jQuery> tag but i did not succed attaching a javascript function (from js file) to it. Another thing is that even though i did it with javascript, in internet explorer i get a "Not implemented " error. On firefox works great.. So how can I include jquery? I thing i will need a lot of javascript in my project, so jquery is the way to go

Thanks

Ok. got it

it was the path

The correct way is <h:outputScript name="resource:///org/richfaces/renderkit/html/scripts/jquery/jquery.js"/>
