Problem in web app with view applet if anonymous access is allowed

we have a web application with Anonymous as reader in the ACL (with read and write public documents). This is necessary for a Web service.The users need to log in to read and/or edit documents. There is a button to log in with following formula: @UrlOpen(“…database.nsf?Opendatabase&login”).

We have a form $$ViewTemplateDefault with an embedded view (using view applet).

Problem:

After login, the users do not see any documents in the views. They only see the column titles in the embedded view and the categories if the view is categorized.

If I change the properties of the embedded view to “using HTML” instead of “using view applet”, the authenticated users can see and open the documents.

If I set Anonymous to “no access” in the ACL, it works: The users log in and see the documents in the views (with option “using view applets” too).

Question:

Why does it not work with view applet, if Anonymous access is allowed in the ACL?

Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks.

Try adding ‘&Login’ to the end of the URL link that opens the view. A logged in user won’t be logged in but it will ensure login credentials are passed for the view open.

eg: http://www.amce.com/db.nsf/View?OpenView&Login

Thanks Alex.We do not use URL to open the view. We have an outline in the link frame and the outline entries open views in the right frame.
