See data in View in Client but NOT in Browser

Hi,

Sure hope someone has seen this one before.

This is a Web application. Have a view that works fine in the client by showing the proper data. Same view is used in a frameset on the Internet but shows none of the data. It shows the Actions, same borders and titles - but not any data.

The Security tab (Key icon) for the view has check mark by "All Readers and Above. No boxes are checked to “hide” anything on Web or client. My access is Manager and all access options and roles are checked. There is no Reader or Author fields on the docs being displayed by the view.

I have run out of things to look at. Also searched through the forums and did not find anything similar. So any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much,

Tim

Are you signed into the web? Or are you anonymous? What are the ACL entries for Anonymous & -Default- ?

Is there a selection formula in the view (or frameset) ?

What do you see when you open the view directly on the web (without frameset) - ie servername/database.nsf/viewname?openview ?

Thanks for the reply, Mark

ACL for both Default and Anonymous is NO Access and works properly

I am Logging in under my Web ID and password and able to see different views and buttons. But every view does not show any data. While in the client the views do show proper data.

The Selection formula gathers just the proper forms with certain Status.

And when I open the view directly using the URL suggested, I get the view with its borders, title, and buttons - but still no data.

Thanks for these suggestions. Can you think of anything else I might check or verify.

Are you sure that the database you’re looking at in notes is the same one that you’re looking at on the web? I’ve done THAT a time or three.

:wink:

Make sure that the selection formula (or column formulas) don’t use ‘@ClientType’.

You might try creating a new view that shows all documents (Select @ALL) and see if documents show there.

You did say that the view does not have the ‘Hide from web Browsers’ property set.

I have had to delete and recreate views a time or two to get it to work right, but I don’t recall ever having this particular issue…

Multiple NSF files with the same replica id could easily be the reason. I’ve run into that one a bunch of times :open_mouth:

After further testing, seems some users were seeing the data and some were not. I am testing in IE version 10 and decided to try an earlier version. When I opened the view in IE 8 I could now see the data.

So I will write this off to a browser glitch. But would anyone know how I could assure that the data is always seen no mater what browser or what version?

Thanks for everyone’s input.
