windows phone 7 does not receive scripts and js files on https - windows-phone-7

Can't solve a problem that I have regarding windows phone jquery mobile https and asp.net mvc 2. I have a asp.net mvc 2 app that resides on my localhost. Some pages require https connection, so when I use my windows phone to browse through pages everything is fine (jquery mobile renders fine) until I accept the https message and go to the https page then it showes all html content with no javascript and css (white background with black text, jquery mobile not working, hidden divs now visible and so on). Seems like windows phone is blocking the files on https in this particular scenatio. Quite strange problem, especially that everything works on Iphone. Iphone renders everything just fine whether its http or https.
I'm not gonna try to paste any code since I don't event know where to start, and the app is too large to paste code snippets. Just wanted to know if anyone had similar problem, or has any idea how to overcome this issue.
Thanks.
EDIT: by searching through forums I stumbled upon problem of self signed certificate on the server and accesing pages with windows phone, dont know if this is the exact problem tho

I think I found solution to my problem, as I thought I need to add the same self signed certificate to my phone that I generated on the server. It is not necessary on the iphone, but for some reason Windows Phone requiers it.

Deep links and Outlook safe links protection

I have deep links configured on iOS and Android using universal links. They're working fine. If the app isn't installed, the request goes through the web site, which I currently have an apache Rewrite redirecting them to the home page of the web site with links to install the app.
Emails that go through Outlook safe links protection, a feature of Office 365 subscriptions, rewrites all URLs in your received emails. So my deep link universal link is rewritten to an outlook handling URL (na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com), so iOS nor Android have the chance to handle it immediately. This redirects to the original url, however Safari then doesn't treat is as a universal link, at least not in the way I have it configured and the user then gets redirected to the home page, and the app never opens. 😢
I can't be the only one facing this issue, as there are a lot of hotmail users out there.
Anyone got any suggestions on how to alleviate this issue and make universal links work with outlook safe links protection?
Note that this issue only is affecting iOS 13 and Android. It works ok on iOS 14.
I know it's possible, as we've got emails from other apps that seem to be successfully doing it, albeit via a lot of link forwarding it seems.

error parallax effect in firefox but works on google chrome

I need your help my website is not functioning properly on firefox browser but in edge, chrome and opera and safari it works only firefox is not functioning properly
Firefox Browser
Google Chrome Browser
I would recommend setting up all your projects in Xampp or something similar first before testing it. If you are going to upload to a server you need to replicate the environment locally before you decide whether it is going to work or not. It seems complicated but it is quite simple, you can find out more here. https://www.apachefriends.org/
That said, check your urls, they are not the same for your two different screens, the one is referencing an anchor tag.

Not able to debug phonegap app running on windows 8 mobile

I have a phonegap application that has some layout problems. I can run the app in browser for the most part, and this usually get me over the line. But with a new design I need to debug the application layout on windows phone 8.
I'm currently looking at weinre but its not showing anything on the desktop when browsing the local server, I have added the link to my application I have cleaned up everything I can think of. Still blank. Any good tuts around the ones I have read just copy and paste the original docs or are not on my same error.
There's a public weinre server available here:
https://the-weinre.herokuapp.com/
You may have better luck with that than with your local server. There's a demo available on that page, give that a try and see if it works on your windows 8 mobile device.

How can I render HTML in a Silverlight 5 app?

I'm currently working on a project that renders emails in HTML format to a Silverlight 5 app. The app is intended to be viewed via a web browser and not an 'Out of browser' app. The WebBrowser control was initially used, but I'm having issues with it. A message stating that IE needs elevated permissions and such. After reading how to properly implement the WebBrowser control by signing the .xap file and installing certificates it seems to work when I run it locally, but when I publish to the server (Windows Server 2008), it doesn't seem to work.
I tried to implement an alternative I found -> http://blogs.msdn.com/b/delay/archive/2007/09/10/bringing-a-bit-of-html-to-silverlight-htmltextblock-makes-rich-text-display-easy.aspx, but that didn't seem to work as the HTML I'm trying to render has many tags not supported in that example.
I also took a look at the Frame control http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.frame(v=vs.95).aspx but not sure if that would solve my problem either.
So if anyone can guide me into the right direction of either how I can get the WebBrowser control to work when pushed to the server or perhaps another alternative it would be greatly appreciated.

IIS7 shows welcome screen in Firefox, Internet Explorer works correctly

Has anyone encountered the following problem: I have IIS7 running on my computer. On that same computer, I open IE7 and the website works (http://localhost/web.site/Default.aspx). Put that same url in Firefox 3 and I get the welcome screen of IIS7, a big image with IIS7 in the middle and 'Welcome' in several different languages. Clicking on the image leads you to http://www.iis.net/.
One browser accesses your server via 127.0.0.1, and another via your external IP.
Make sure virtualhost works with all network interfaces.
Perhaps your browsers have different locals set , only guessing as I have not used IIS7
Strange. That happened to me this morning (April 9, 2009), but the other way around. I was trying to get to Dell.ca. IE7 brought me to that IIS7 Welcome screen and Firefox brought me to the correct site. Happened 3 times before it corrected itself.
I do not have IIS anywhere on my network and my default home page is Google, which came up without a problem. The redirection occurred when I typed the new URL. I wonder if Dell is using IIS7...
