I am having trouble figuring out why my cruise control .net web dashboard is showing up all screwed up(see image). It seems like it can't load all the style sheets properly.
What version of IIS you are using?
For Windows 7, there is a IIS7 feature that you need to enable before images and css is working on websites:
Turn on "Static Content" located under "Common HTTP Features".

The new Microsoft Edge browser has built-in support for Adobe Flash. The updated WebView control in the Windows 10 SDK utilizes Microsoft Edge as its engine.
I am trying to figure out how to enable the WebView control to render Adobe Flash content from a website in a Universal Windows App (either a Hosted Web App or a Packaged Web App).
Any ideas or pointers would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
WebView doesn't use Edge as the engine but uses IE11. Quote from the docs - "WebView always uses Internet Explorer 11 in document mode".
It also doesn't support any plugins or such, which would include Flash.
Full run of caveats from the control doc:
It does not support any ActiveX controls or plugins like Microsoft
Silverlight or Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Additionally,
WebView does not support some HTML5 features including AppCache,
IndexedDB, programmatic access to the Clipboard, and geolocation.

Enjoy. Hope this helps. Healy in Tampa.
On Universal application, the webview is using edge now but it does not change anything regarding plugins.
Here is what it says from the MSDN :
In apps compiled for Windows 10, WebView uses the Microsoft Edge
rendering engine to display HTML content. In apps compiled for Windows
8 or Windows 8.1, WebView uses Internet Explorer 11 in document mode.
It does not support any ActiveX controls or plugins like Microsoft
Silverlight or Portable Document Format (PDF) files.
I have an html5 mobile responsive website. In this website, I am showing iframes (in many pages) of asp.net pages that are hosted externally. If I view the html5 website in browser either in PC or mobile, it is displaying all the pages correctly.
I had converted this html5 website to android app using phonegap build (cloud one). It was working fine for last few months. Few days back I had added some new pages to the html5 website using iframes to show new asp.net pages. I tried updating the phonegap through build.phonegap.com. Now when I open the android app, what i see is blank white screens in place of all iframes. I don't know what happened but I think phonegap version was updated to cli-5.2.0 (3.9.1/4.1.1/3.8.1).
Could this be the issue? How can I revert back to the old version? I tried specifying in config.xml but no success. I even searched online for solutions but I couldn't find solution to my problem. I have allowed in config.xml. I found in some site that we need to allow access for domains and subdomains. So I tried doing that but no success. What could be the problem?
I am successful in solving my problem by specifying version 3.7.1 in config.xml
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.
How do I integrate ad providers with a PhoneGap App (for windows phone)?
I would think there are a couple of answers to this. One is to edit the XAML page, add the normal silverlight control to the page. This would require you to fiddle with the provided xaml from phonegap. This would give you access to the MS Ad Control and Google's Ad control for .net. At the end of the day, PhoneGap is just a silverlight page, with a browser control in it. So you can still edit that page, but you have to make sure you don't screw up the PhoneGap libraries and page.
The other solution is to find an html based ad control. Although this might not be possible with your ad provider.
I have a VB6 application using the WebBrowser control. It displays HTML pages from a local folder (using file:// URI scheme). Some of those pages contain embedded JavaScript code.
It all works well for the vast majority of users, but occasionally we get reports from people who have problems with everything JavaScript-related in the pages. Basically, it looks like they have scripting disabled inside the WebBrowser control.
The problem is: I cannot even reproduce the problem. I was trying to fiddle with various settings in IE security (IE8 on Win XP Pro SP3), disabling various scripting-related options for different zones (which zone includes local file system, by the way?), - I'm always having JavaScript running well in my tests.
Does anybody have any idea of what may be going wrong?
Thanks
I think I know why this is happening, it's because the IE version the WebBrowser control renders under is IE 7.0 in most, and if they are using a browser older than IE 7, it will render under IE 4.0 (seriously). They do this for backwards compatibility. So if some of your users have IE 6, their default IE rendering engine will be IE 4.0. Of course, since you are probably using IE 9, yors would be IE 7 engine.
You can change the engine, if this is what you want to do, to the current engine (ie: to the current version of internet explorer installed on the users system).
Also, I'd like you to go to http://whatsmyuseragent.com/ on your IE browser, and then through the hosted WebBrowser control; you'll see the difference.
Also, ask your problemed users to go to http://whatsmyuseragent.com/ through their hosted WebBrowser control if they can, and note the results, if they are running pre-IE-7 then most likely their hosted webbrowser control will show IE 4.0. This is almost certainly the reason for your problem.
