Why does Applet to javascript not work in Firefox 18.0.2 and 18.0.1 with the latest JRE (1.7.0_13) installed?
When calling a javascript from applet this JSException is thrown: No such method "methodName" on JavaScript object
I've installed the latest JRE (1.7.0_13) and it works in other browsers, so something has happend in Firefox 18 (I've tested 18.0.1 and 18.0.2 with the same exception). If using JRE 1.7.0_11 (with 1.7.0_13 uninstalled) it works fine.
The call from Applet is like this (using netscape.javascript.JSObject):
JSObject window = JSObject.getWindow(theObject);
window.call( "methodName", new Object[] {});
The method "methodName" is available since it works in other browsers but for the information the methods are registered before the Applet is started via this call:
public static native void registerJSNIfunctions(Object theObject) /*-{
parent.methodName= function(s){
theObject.methodName2(s);
}
;
}-*/;
What has happend?
