I use Swing HTML Browser to test PortletBuilder functionality of JSE 8.1 (m14b, 2006.09.13) and found that sometimes browser just says "Invalid URL: ..." but if I copy it to Firefox or other browser I can see the page. I looked into its source and found that it's trunctated, i. e. it has no closing </html> tags and others. I believe that "Invalid URL" message is incorrect. The best way is to show the page nevertheless. At least the message should be changed
Created attachment 34602 [details] page source
Exact steps to reproduce: - Use JSE 8.1 - Set Swing HTML Broswer as default - Create New Portlet Provider Application - Create New Java Provider Extending ProfileProviderAdapter - Rename the provider (according to CR 6475804 this will break the Provider Application. You could also break the Application manually) - Run Project - RESULT: Invalid URL is shown in browser's status line.
I am missing the URL and cannot reproduce this without JSE8.1. Attached page can be displayed using http://www.netbeans.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/34602/PageSource.html although it is shown as a plain text only. SwingBrowser is not a full featured browser comparable to other alternatives. None should use it to test developed JavaEE/Web apps. It is just a last fallback. I'd say that this is P4.
I'm sorry for the bad sample. In fact, this is just a page source saved from the browser. In the real story the page is being generated by server and, probably, the connection is terminated unexpectedly or something like that. The main point of this issue is about wrong message - In fact, the URL is correct, but the page can't be opened due to some reason. This is confusing. Necessity to use JSE8.1 is not the reason to mark the issue as INCOMPLETE.
> probably, the connection is terminated unexpectedly or something like that This is very uncertain. I do not understand what problem I should fix? > Necessity to use JSE8.1 is not the reason to mark the issue as INCOMPLETE. Sure. If you tell me how I can reproduce your problem I'll be happy. I know nothing about JSE8.1 m14b. Sorry. P4 - as I explained SwingBrowser is not a tool that should be used as a front-end during web app development. cf. also http://qa.netbeans.org/bugzilla/bug_priority_guidelines.html
