Viewing JSPs from Mozilla Browser on Fedora

[Frank Bogle]

Hello All,

I am developing a J2EE application on a hosted Linux Data Centre,

I have a local instance of Fedora 1 installed at home and was wondering if 
anyone knows about limitations of Mozilla for viewing JSPs.

The basic problem is that I have defined some entity and session java beans 
in JBoss and am using these to populate some JSPs for query based details.

Some of the JSPs work well in Mozilla others do not.

It is an odd problem because from a WinXP client the server application 
works perfectly.

Has anyone had problems like this and if so what do I need to do to get my 
Mozilla browser to work correctly?

The main area of my confusion is why do some JSPs work and others fail to 
load on Mozilla when they all work from WinXP.

The JSP engine is Jakarta Struts.

Any ideas, insights or views really appreciated.

In addition to this does anyone know if a proven method to upgrade Fedora 1 
to the latest version of Fedora? I guess that I will use yum but where do I 
point it to..?

Regards All

Franko

There are none.

JSP is a backend server technology. It has _NOTHING_ to do with browser 
compatibility. All browsers 'see' are are the _output_. Browsers have no 
ability to divine if the output was generated by JSP, Perl, C, ASP, PHP, 
static HTML files or little Swiss gnomes typing really fast.

What you have is problem with either your output HTML or some other item 
like Javascript cross-browser compatibility problems. IOW: Fix the
HTML/Javascript output and all will be well.
