On the website of Francois Degrelle I came along a webbrowser bean to be used with Oracle Forms. More information you can find at the website of Francois. The bean makes use of a java archive (jdic.jar) and requires some files to be installed under the windows system folder. These files are necessary so you can make use of Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. It didn't get the version of Francois working so I went looking for the used java archive. I found the java archive at the site of sun. Sun has also a newer version of the java archive (called JDICplus.jar) available. With the new jar only two dll's have to be available inside the java_path. One disadvantage of this new jar, it only works with version 1.6 of de java runtime.
I have rewritten the Form and the java archive from the example of Francois. The example below show the Oracle Form showing a webpage. I this case mhy own dutch weblog. It is also possible to open pdf document of office documents, they will open with i.e. acrobat or microsoft office. Depending on the programs that have been installed on the client.
I'm not able to put the code of the bean and the form on this blog. For the code and the form look at the following url:
