I am trying to disable the Acrobat plug-in from IE8, but it is still getting loaded. As you can see in the image below that plugins are marked as inactive, but are still being listed currently loaded plugins section of IE8. Tried logging off and logging on again to unload anything from memory.
Regards,

Have you moved the plug-in file out of the folder for plug-ins?

I have a lot of data saved in XML files with XSLT to show the content properly in Firefox. But from today, Firefox doesn't interpret anymore the XSLT and shows a white page or the data in a block.
My current Firefox version is 68.0 (64-bit). Is there a bug with XSLT in the new version or is XSLT only disabled per default in Firefox 68.0?
As Tim C has pointed out in a comment, due to side effects of a security fix the use of <?xml-stylesheet href="foo.xsl" ..?> in XML documents loaded from the local file system is no longer working in Mozilla. The problem is reported as bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1565261 but it seems there is no intention to fix it as Chrome and other Chromium based browsers have stopped supporting XSLT referenced in XML documents loaded from the local file system long ago.
The discussions in the bug report, however, suggest that the setting privacy.file_unique_origin in about:config to false is a "workaround".
Keep in mind that it exposes you to the security problem whose fix disabled the use of XSLT referenced by xml-stylesheet processing instructions loaded from the local file system.
In Moodle 2.2.3, after 10-12 seconds TinyMCE (TinyMCE HTML editor; editor_tinymce; Standard; 2012030300) buttons will show up (loads very slowly). Where problem lies? Can't figure out how to speed up TinyMCE HTML editor loading time.
I have Moodle 2.2.3+ (Build: 20120519).
I found a solution. The cause, why it was slow, was because it was in estonian. I had to change whole user language into english and it fixed it.
I met the same problem: on my project tinymce loaded about 10 seconds. Solution to speed it up was to disable plugins, which I don't need.
For example:
at default config plugins option was:
plugins: "visualblocks,visualchars,pagebreak,layer,table,save,jbimages,link,emoticons,insertdatetime,preview,media,searchreplace,print,paste,directionality,fullscreen,noneditable,visualchars,nonbreaking,template",
After remove unused plugins it was:
plugins: "jbimages,link",
and editor loading became 2 seconds.
P.S. jbimages is a plugin to upload images.
Look at your caching. The tinyMCE JS files ought to be kept by the browser and recycled, but sometimes this doesn't happen. Use Firebug or Chrome developer tools to see if they are being loaded from cache or from the server. If from the server, you may need to tweak your web server settings so that JS files have an expires header.
I'm encountering a really frustrating problem with WordPress and I hope someone can help. Images are uploading to WordPress correctly (they are in the library) but once a file is uploaded there is simply a blank screen. Closing and reopening the "Add an Image" window, I still cannot add them to posts unless I enter the full URL because the "Media Library" tab simply doesn't show anything (see below - interface shows there are 33 images and 4 tabbed pages, but none of them are displayed.
I've about reached the end of my rope trying to fix this problem. Searched and searched and can find no answer. Some people had similar problems, and I tried all of their posted solutions, including:
Uninstalled all plugins
Nuked and reinstalled all wordpress files
Checked browser versions (occurring in Chrome 7.0.5 and FireFox 3.2)
No JavaScript errors found (used Firebug and Chrome's JS panel)
Checked domain name in Settings for improper capitalization
Checked image URL to make sure there was no gibberish, and there isn't
Does anyone have any suggestions (I'm running version 3.0.2 on Apache)? I'd be forever in your debt. Thank you!
Oops, it won't let me post an image because of 'spam protection.' Drats!

Who is your web host? How much php memory are you allocated? Is GD library for php installed?
I've created a couple of Office plugins. The plugin shows a set of html files installed on the clients computer. The plugin uses a COM-accessible assembly which shows a WinForm with a WebBrowser on it. The plugin makes the WebBrowser navigate to a file on the clients computer. The assembly is also used in other programs to show the same information.
When showing the local html files using a 'normal' browser (e.g. double clicking a file in Windows Explorer) the browser popup a security warning about running active content. This is because we have some javascript in it. This warning is supressed by setting the 'Allow active content to run in files on My Computer' in the Internet Explorer settings. This solves the issue using a 'normal' browser.
Funny enough the 'active content' warning is not shown when getting the same file using a Word/Excel/PowerPoint plugin. It calls the same assembly, using the same WinForm and using the same content. Despite the setting 'Allow active content to run from My Computer' being false, the content is shown without a warning and the javascript is executed.
Now, the problem and the real question is that Outlook does the reverse. No matter what I use for 'Allow active content to run from My Computer' the browser warning about the active content in the html file is shown. When I confirm the message and allow the scripts to continue, the javascript runs fine. So, even when I set the 'Allow active content to run from My Computer' to true, the warning is given.
I've gone through all (sort of) relevant settings in Outlook, but nothing helps.
I assume that Outlook is using some kind of private context for a webbrowser (probably because it is using a webbrowser object internally).
The real question is: how can I make the Outlook plugin respect the IE settings?
(I understand this is a long story and maybe not clear enough. Please let me know if I have to elaborate more).
I couldn't get rid of the security warning without lowering the security setting. And that is not an option: we are talking about a project that will be installed on millions of computers.
I decided to go another route. Let's see if we can make the browser trust the html pages. So, what to do to get rid of the 'Active content' warning.
First I investigated what exactly triggers the warning. That was easy: any tag in your html file will do. And I need script, so removing that isn't an option. But, when hosted from a website, the scripts run fine and don't suffer from a warning. So, I investigated if it is possible to run my files in the Internet-context.
I found out there is a way, at least for IE (which in my case is sufficient). If you save a webpage as a complete HTML file from IE, the browser adds a comment to the html to signal its origin. Something like: . If you later open that stored html file, the file is shown in the Internet context.
So, I tried adding to the html file. And, voila, the file is opened in the Internet context. The security warning about active content is gone and the scripts are executed fine.
But, that raised another problem. We have a couple of window.open statements in the scripts and using that causes he cross domain browsing problems that in recent IE versions are blocked. Even if you use a relative path in the window.open call, if fails and you end up with a blank window.
In our case, we can (probably) decide to get rid of the window.open calls. But, if a reader ever finds a solution for using window.open in this scenario, I would be very happy if you let me know.
So, for now: case closed...

It looks like IE7 doesn't reload the latest version of my stylesheet each time I upload a new version on the server.
This is annoying as I am debugging my .css file to make it work on IE...
Tried to empty the browser cache but still not working.
Thanks for your help.
Ctrl-F5 - forcible way to reload in IE
Include your version number in the file name. myfile_v1234.css
When testing, every time you do an update you can just wite "stylesheet.css?r=98123"
As long as the query string is different, it'll be downloaded again.
If you need, you can use javascript to append Math.random(), to get the random number. Not required on production though, when updates would be stable.
2 Questions:
Does IE eventually load with the newer stylesheet?
How are you saving the changes to the server (SSH, Web Interface, etc.)?
I ask because I ran into an issue with a web-based file management system a while back where one browser would show the CSS just fine, the other wouldn't, and we noticed the issue of which browser played nicely depended on which browser we used to upload the CSS.
The reason turned out to be that IE gave the CSS file a different MIME type than Firefox. If you continue to notice the issue even when you've cleared the cache, check the MIME type of the file using Firefox by going to Tools > Page Info.
Also, if it is simply a caching issue, consider turning caching off in IE. I believe this should be an Advanced Option under Internet Options.
Also, you may want to try creating a special developer environment for IE (if it comes down to it.) Perhaps have another machine with IE7 and no caching and any other features turned off (A kiosk mode, perhaps), and then previewing the page on that machine.
Thanks to you all!
I did manage to solve my problem with the "stupid" Ctrl+F5, and by changing the Internet Parameters of Windows to reload content every new visit.
