IE7 Issues

[dukeslater]

Anyone know anything about Enterprise XI blocking client access when using Internet Explorer 7? I haven't uprgraded yet, but I've heard there is a problem. Nothing in BOBJ hotfixes yet.

It might be the other way around. I've used IE 7 with my BO Enterprise deployment without a hitch BUT I am running IE 7 on intranet security settings. In other words, very low. Standard settings might be preventing Active X or Java components to not execute properly.

Thanks elsenorjose -

That's good information. What I've found out since is that the problem only occurs with the .NET Infoview, and the message is something very much like “Unable to parse XML structure”

Interestingly, the .NET Administration tools work fine. I'll continue to post as information becomes available, and if anyone has either good or bad experiences with IE7 and .NET Infoview please share them.

If an IE-7 users closes the .NET Infoview browser without logging out - the "Do you want to log-out...?" message window does not appear.

It works in IE-6 on the same BOE-XI (R2) environment.

Reported to BOBJ Support and reproduced by them.
