Re: Favorites link won't work, but typed in URL does

Hi Rob,

Thanks for the response, but the box was unchecked, so I guess it wasn't
that. It's the strangest problem. If we use the link, none of the data on the
page that is required is collected up and put in the request object, so it
fails. But if we open the short cut, copy the exact URL and paste it into a
browser and click GO, it works fine. Very annoying!

Thanks,
Nancy

Hi Nancy,

This is just a guess so I may be wrong. Check the properties of the Favorite
(right click and select Properties). Make sure that the 'Make this page
available offline' option is unchecked.

Perhaps you are deleting offline content when you clear the cache and the
Favorite is looking for the offline copy?

Regards.

We're seeing a very strange error. We have a local WAS server running, and
have a URL mapped to it - something like dev.abc.company.com. If we click
the Favorites link (http://dev.abc.company.com) we get an error (no
message
returned so I'm not sure what it is). If we type that exact same URL into
the browser, it works perfectly. Some of the trace logs imply that the
favorites link is doing a GET vs the typed in link is doing a POST. We're
not passing alot of data around, for now just hardcoded a login id and
automatically submit the page onLoad. but in incase the login id was not
collected up, we put some error trapping in the backend code to see if
it's
null, and it was not.

One other thing is that we see a 304 Not Modifed message in some of the
logs
when the link is clicked. We just see a 200 OK message when the url is
typed
in.

Any ideas why a favorites Link would behave differently than typing the
URL
in directly? I've searched the net and the MS Knowledge base and dont' see
any info on this.

Thanks!
