remote panels in 2010 service pack 1

[Armen]

I have checked the machine - lvapp.rsc is on the right place. And in the previous message has been mentioned, that repaire doesnt fixed the issue.

I have completely deinstalled and installed the NI software. Now fonts looks correct. But FireFox issue still open. Why I can't use FF? It was OK with LabVIEW 8.51.

The remote panel doesn't load in Firefox?  You might try the following:

Beginning in LabVIEW 8.0, the plugins are installed to \National\Instruments\Shared\LabVIEW Run-Time\Current LabVIEW Version\Browser Plugins. If a web browser is installed after LabVIEW (such as Firefox), the plugins can be manually installed from this location. They should be copy and pasted into C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\PLUGINS or C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins respectively.

It was already instaled there. The web page opens only headers and small quadrat instead of front panel. No complains about missing pugins.

Hi Armen,

This is a known bug in 2010.  R&D is currently investigating it.  For now, please use Internet Explorer.

Hi Che,

Does it mean we are binded again to Microsoft? But what about Mac? what about Linux? They don't have an Internet Explorer...

Hi Armen,

Not necessarily.  But, it does seem like this bug is occurring in LV 2010 SP1, and the only web browser that can support Remote Front Panels for this version is Internet Explorer.  For now, it looks like they'll want to fix the feature for Firefox.

Hi Che,

Thank you for for ijecting some optimismus in this discussion. But could you please give me a good advice - how can Mac or Linux user run an Internet Explorer?

Hi Armen,

Internet Explorer is a Microsoft product, so it runs natively under the Windows API.  It is possible that you can find an emulator, such as WINE, to run Internet Explorer.  However, since we're using an emulator, not all functionality may be emulated.  So, remote front panels may not work.  For now, the best recommendation is to use remote front panels on a Windows system.

Hi Che,

Therefore I was mentioned above we are chained to the Windows and Internet Explorer. We hope NI experts will unchained us rather soon than late
