Hello:
Our efforts to use the Firefox plugin have not been successful. Our web-site installs the plugin but only displays a blank (white) box.
Does the plug-in have a switch that enables verbose output? We need some method to determine why it does not connent /load.
Thanks
Clark

<snip> We've seen that same problem and have not yet found the issue. We see two variations - in one case, the plugin is misinterpreted as html and we see something like <!-- x2goplugin// > displayed on the screen. The other is just a blank screen as you describe. I would estimate that 70% of the time it works fine but fails the rest. We have seen it work on very similarly configured computers using the same version of Firefox. However, it does not vary within a computer, i.e., either it always works on the computer or it doesn't. I'd really like to resolve that problem as it is embarrassing and we simply excuse ourselves saying it is a beta version :(

Ensure the HTML is valid otherwise some browsers will barf over it.

please make sure that the server.x2go file can be found and that it is readable to the apache user. This behaviour is often caused by wrong file permissions.
We still are working on the new version of the plugin. In the new version the session information will be placed inside the html file. This way way it will be easier to generate "plugin containing" dynamic websites.
Regards,
Heinz

One system connecting to the same webserver as the same user, desktop, configuration, works and another does not :( - John

Heinz, Just my 2c here. If you are referring to the properties file, I like it just as it is. And there is no problem generating dynamic properties files. It keeps the properties file at the server where it can be dynamically generated, managed and deleted as necessary. If you switch this over to the client side then you have to account for possiblities of people reloading the page and replaying the current session, etc, and no way of controlling things from the server. The only thing that I found missing in the current setup was the ability to have the key also placed into a variable as well as tacked onto the end of the properties file. This way if you needed to pull it out and use it in some other script it was a little easier to parse it out. And if this is not what you meant then kindly ignore.
Regards, Gerry
