Something wrong with xfa and Firefox 1.503 / IE > 6.0.3xxx

Hi all,



We have an intranet solution, which opens a xfa forms in a new browser window this way:



window.open(some servlet url);



The servlet returns form data content as mime type xdp+xml, referencing a pdf form available on the same server. The plugin will load the form and put in the form data. This worked fine with most browser versions.



The problem now: In these latest browser releases you are only able to open the pdf form in

- the opener/parent window,

- in a new window or

- in a tab in the opener/parent window.

Our popup window remains allways empty.

FF even has a configuration item for this, but there is no option "open in the window where its supposed to open" ;-)



Can someone reproduce this? Any hints to fix this? What could have changed?

Could this have sth to do with the way the plugin communicates back to the browser to say "now open this url of the form pdf"?



I will ask this in a FF forum, too.



Thanks,

Kolja
