<div><p>This topic contains browser considerations for iSeries™ Access for Web.</p>
|
||
|
|
<dl><dt class="dlterm">Browser plug-ins</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>A browser plug-in or a separate application may be needed to view some
|
||
|
|
of the content returned by iSeries Access for Web.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Opera 6.0 browser</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>The Opera 6.0 browser cannot display PDF documents using the Adobe Acrobat
|
||
|
|
Reader plug-in if the URL used to access the document contains parameters.</dd>
|

</dl>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Web application</h4><p>The following considerations apply
|
||
|
|
to the Web application, not the portal application, provided by iSeries Access
|
||
|
|
for Web.</p>
|
||
|
|
<dl><dt class="dlterm"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Content-type (MIME-type) mapping<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />When downloading a file to the browser, iSeries Access for Web uses the file
|
||
|
|
extension to determine the file content-type (MIME-type). The file content-type
|
||
|
|
is used by the browser to determine how best to render the information. iSeries Access
|
||
|
|
for Web provides a way to extend or override the included file extension to
|
||
|
|
file content-type mapping. See <a href="rzammfileconsiderations.htm#rzammfileconsiderations__mimemapping">Content-type
|
||
|
|
(MIME-type) mapping in "File considerations"</a> for more information.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Force a Save As window when downloading files<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />When using Microsoft<sup>®</sup> Internet Explorer and any of the iSeries Access
|
||
|
|
for Web functions to download a file to the browser, often Internet Explorer
|
||
|
|
will display the file's content in the browser window without offering an
|
||
|
|
opportunity to save the file. Internet Explorer examines the data in the file
|
||
|
|
and determines that it is capable of displaying the data within the browser
|
||
|
|
window. See <a href="rzammfileconsiderations.htm#rzammfileconsiderations__saveas">Forcing
|
||
|
|
a Save As window when downloading files in "File considerations"</a> for
|
||
|
|
information on working around this issue. <img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Log out</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>HTTP basic authentication does not have a means of logging out a user.
|
||
|
|
You must close all browser windows to clear the user identity from the browser.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Bookmarks</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>Pages of the Web application may be bookmarked for easier access. In wizards,
|
||
|
|
only the first page may be bookmarked.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Realm</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>The term Realm is used by some browsers when prompting for user name and
|
||
|
|
password with HTTP basic authentication. When the Web application is configured
|
||
|
|
to authenticate the user identity, the realm is the host name of the server
|
||
|
|
containing the i5/OS™ resources
|
||
|
|
you are accessing.</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">URL</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>Use http://<<var class="varname">server_name</var>>/webaccess/iWAMain to
|
||
|
|
access the main page of the Web application. Use http://<<var class="varname">server_name</var>>/webaccess/iWAHome
|
||
|
|
to access the home page. Both of these pages can be customized.</dd>
