ABC Mouse.com PWB v3 IE

Post by phillipbrickner »

I have been trying to troubleshoot a problem but to make a long story short I tried PWB v3 IE and am having trouble with the abcmouse.com website when clicking on anything from the attached picture.

The problem is that clicking on anything doesn't work. I have tested and it works in IE11 on teh same computers. I have also tested and it works in PWB v3 CEF. Why not use CEF? Well we have been experiencing some white screens and freeze ups in CEF. If there are some logs you want me to try and get off these when it happens I can get them to you.

These buttons on abcmouse.com are javascript intense. If you need to test it live I can add your IP temporarily to our whitelist for abcmouse.com to do some testing with it. Thanks

Unfortunately there are a few codecs that are not available in the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) yet.

With PWB CEF a window can be opened in Chrome or Internet Explorer, use the following settings to have the site open in Chrome instead of Internet Explorer.

[Browser]
CheckOpenIE=True
CheckOpenCEF=True

I guess maybe I was a bit confusing in my original post.

The website is not displaying correctly in PWBv3 IE.
It work correctly in IE11 and Edge.
It also works correctly in PWBv3 CEF.

I would try your suggestion for PWBv3 CEF but it seems a bit unstable. It keeps freezing up. Blank\White screen.
Would running it with the below config fix some of these problems?

[Browser]
CheckOpenIE=True

PWB CEF is the exact same as PWB IE with the addition of the Chrome rendering engine added on. If you set up the CheckOpen IE to open all web sites it is the exact same as PWB IE. With this functionality you can have PWB IE open all sites except for ABC Mouse which would open in PWB CEF.

So how do I only have a certain website open with CheckOpenCEF=True and the rest of the sites open with IE?

These are links on a page. Can I eject something into the link?

Using PWB CEF, set the following in your INI file.

[Browser]
CheckOpenIE=True
CheckOpenCEF=True

[Files]
CheckOpenIEFile=C:\path_to\Open.txt

In the "Open.txt" add the following.

+all
-abcmouse.com

With the above settings anything denied in the "CheckOpenIEFile" will open in Chrome, anything allowed will open in IE.
