When rendering the styles from bundles when optimization is on you get this:
<link href="/Content/themes/base/css?v=UM624qf1uFt8dYtiIV9PCmYhsyeewBIwY4Ob0i8OdW81" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
Unfortunately the Android browser do not seem to load urls with query strings on them. Is there some way you can customize this string in System.Web.Optimization?
Edit:
My question is answered and I tried to detect android on user agent string and replace with a querystring less link to the stylesheet. Apparently the problem I had wasn't because of the querystring, it was minified version of the webfont css that was causing it not to load the stylesheet completely in the Android stock browser.
Android stock browser fails to load css content string with escaped backslash which was a workaround for the ASP.NET minifier that erronously minifies the same css content string. I ended up putting the icon font css styles on it's own "minified by hand" stylesheet.
You can disable caching by using
#{string path = BundleTable.Bundles.ResolveBundleUrl("~/bundle/cssCommon", false);}
//may apply manual path transformation to remove ?v= anyway
<link href=#path rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
or short form
<link href="#BundleTable.Bundles.ResolveBundleUrl("~/bundle/cssCustom", false)"
But you will have caching-related problems instead of android WebView problems.
Another possible approach is using Microsoft Ajax Minifier
We don't currently support customizing how the version string appears in the url unfortunately.
This is a link to the issue on our codeplex site: Url version issue
In the meantime, if you are willing to live with manually rev'ing the bundle path every time you change the bundle, you could just avoid using the helpers and just having explicit links to your bundles which you update each time your bundle changes:
<link href="/Content/themes/base/css" rel="stylesheet">
Or you could disable caching on the client via bundle.Cacheability = HttpCacheability.NoCache

I'm getting started building out a blog with Middleman using the middleman-blog extension. Everything is working great so far on the home page. The problem occurs when I click on a link to see the full blog post. The full blog post page has no CSS being applied to it. After further inspection, I am receiving a 404 error. I fixed it on Dev Tools by moving 3 levels up in my CSS link href like so:
BEFORE (works in Home Page but not in Article pages)
<link rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheets/global.sass">
AFTER (moving two levels up no longer gives me a 404)
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../../../stylesheets/global.sass">
My question is: What do I need to modify so that Article Pages look for the CSS 3 levels up while the home page remains intact?
In your case, the easiest way would be to use webroot-relative paths.
To recap, you're using a regular relative path...
<link rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheets/global.sass">
If your page is at http://example.com/index.html, then the browser will look for http://example.com/stylesheets/global.sass.
But if your page is at http://example.com/blogs/2013/03/20/blogpost.html, the browser will look for http://example.com/blogs/2013/03/20/stylesheets/global.sass
Now, the solution...
If you add a slash to the beginning of the path, you make that relative path into a webroot-relative path. The web browser will start looking for the file at the webroot...
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/stylesheets/global.sass">
So, regardless of whether your page is at http://example.com/index.html, http://example.com/blogs/2013/03/20/blogpost.html or http://example.com/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/i/j/k/l/m/n/o/p/page.html, the browser will, in all cases, look for the file at http://example.com/stylesheets/global.sass.
The Adobe Dreamweaver documentation on linking and navigation explains this a bit more completely.
How to get favicon website with Chromium Embedded Framework? I could look at the source code and get the url of the icon, but some sites, like Facebook, do not use a standard procedure to add a favicon, then, how do I get the favicon? Thanks.
The rules for the favicon are all explained on the Wikipedia page.
The standards use a link element with a rel attribute in the <head> section of the document to specify the file format, file name and a location can be specified for any Web site directory.
You need to look, inside the <head> element, for link elements of this form:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://example.com/myicon.ico" />
or
<link rel="icon" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon"
href="http://example.com/image.ico" />
If you don't find such links, then use the fall back of looking for favicon.ico at the root directory.
I'm not certain why you think that Facebook don't follow the standard. I just looked at an FB page which contained this:
<link rel="shortcut icon"
href="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/yP/r/Ivn-CVe5TGK.ico" />
It's not possible for websites to use some other mechanism to get favicons to browsers. The browsers follow the well-defined rules for getting favicons. If a website did something different, the browser would not find the favicon.
From this blog entry, the best practice for cross-browser supported favicons is to include
<link rel="icon" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon" href="http://www.example.com/image.ico"> <!-- For good browsers. -->
<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="http://www.example.com/image.ico"/> <!-- For Internet Explorer-->
The first link is for real browsers and the second is for ie rubbish. On some websites you will see type="image/x-icon" in the link tag. There was a time when this was the correct implementation, but image/x-icon has now been superceded by image/vnd.microsoft.icon which is now part of the IANA standard for MIME types.
By the way, older versions of ie just looked for a file name /favicon.ico which was hard-coded. If you wanted to be ultra safe, you should name your favicon as favicon.ico. Of course that does not help you if your domain hosts multiple web-sites for different purposes.
Note: If you don't need to support favicons for IE, then you are then free to use png, gif and jpg formats for your favicon, as indicated below...
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="http://www.example.com/image.png">
<link rel="icon" type="image/gif" href="http://www.example.com/image.gif">
<link rel="icon" type="image/jpeg" href="http://www.example.com/image.jpg">
CEF1 has a callback named OnFaviconURLChange that's called whenever the favicon URL for a page changes. CEF3 doesn't support this callback yet, according to this bug in the CEF issue tracker.
You need to implement a client handler and at least CefDisplayHandler. This class have the OnFaviconURLChange (not sure in what version did appear, but for sure is present in branch 2357 and later).
C++ prototype is:
void OnFaviconURLChange(CefRefPtr<CefBrowser> browser,
const std::vector<CefString>& icon_urls);
icon_urls usually contains a single entry (if any), which is the URL of the favicon.
Consider also checking the favicon URL for its security, I passed the URL to a HTMLayout application only to discover that was on a self-signed https:// resource and all sorts of wininet security error (InternetErrorDlg for example) started throwing all the place.
I'm developing a new webapp based on the orbeon samples. I'm using orbeon 3.9 CE. I got VERY ERRATIC behavior when I use custom ressources. They are placed in following folders :
/orbeon/WEB-INF/resources/config/theme/*.css
/orbeon/WEB-INF/resources/config/theme/*.js
/orbeon/WEB-INF/resources/config/theme/images/*.jpg
In my custom theme file (/orbeon/WEB-INF/resources/config/theme-xnotes.xsl), they are linked like this (a few examples) :
<xhtml:link rel="stylesheet" href="/config/theme/bootstrap.css" type="text/css" media="all"/>
<xhtml:script src="/config/theme/bootstrap.js"/>
<xhtml:link rel="icon" href="/config/theme/images/icone_grue.png" type="image/png"/>
When I point my browser at the application (http://localhost:8080/orbeon), it SOMETIMES work, SOMETIMES doesn't (css are ignored, page transitions are wrong) and SOMETIMES it works partially (css are ok, js not, a few images are ok, others are not and so on)
When I look at the page source code, the links seems to be ok, to take the sames examples as above :
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/orbeon/config/theme/bootstrap.css" type="text/css" media="all">
<script src="/orbeon/config/theme/bootstrap.js">
<link rel="icon" href="/orbeon/config/theme/images/icone_grue.png" type="image/png">
But some links are not valid and point to the root of the application. The main problem is that I just can't make this behavior consistent to isolate the issue(s).
Help really appreciated ! It's driving me crazy...
I don't think there can be more than one GET or POST per request, but per open connection certainly.
However, this might be related to authentication since you mention j_security_check. Can you try to make sure that the CSS and other resources are not protected by form authentication?
When I add jqm-icon-pack-2.1.2-fa.css to my website, the jQuery UI fonts don't show. If I remove the reference, they show. I'm creating an MVC4 mobile application using Visual Studio 2012. Here is how I'm referencing the css files:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="#Url.StaticStylesheet("jquery.mobile-1.2.0.css")" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="#Url.StaticStylesheet("jquery.mobile.structure-1.2.0.css")" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="#Url.StaticStylesheet("jquery.mobile.theme-1.2.0.css")" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="#Url.StaticStylesheet("jqm-icon-pack-2.1.2-fa.css")" type="text/css">
If I remove the last reference, the jQuery icons work but the Font Awesome icons don't work. I've tried to reorder the references and that didin't work. I've inspected the page with Firebug and I can't see a difference. I've made sure the paths are correct as well. I'd like to post a link to my website but it's inside an extranet so it can't be accessed. The best I can offer is I'm setting an input to type="search" and the search icon and clear text icon do not appear. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
ANSWER: I solved the problem and hopefully can save others some grief and hours of beating their heads on the keyboard like I did! When you use NuGet Package Manager to get jQuery mobile, it adds some image files called icons-18-black.png, icons-18-white.png, icons-36-black.png, and icons-36-white.png. If you're not careful you can miss the fact that there are some slightly different image files on the github website you need to include with Font Awesome called icons-18-black-pack.png, icons-18-white-pack.png, icons-36-black-pack.png, and icons-36-white-pack.png. Notice that the word "pack" is included in the name of these files and they're slightly different than the original files included with jQuery mobile. Just be sure you add in the missing files plus the ajax-loader.png file which is different than the ajax-loader.gif file included with jQuery mobile as well and all should work.

I want to use the Jquery UI Theme Switcher Widget on my page.
The problem is the Switcher is hosted via http and my page is a https page.
So I get security errors including the switcher.
Does anyone know if I can get the source of the switcher so I can host it on my site?
Or are there any third party switcher scripts that I could use?
Thanks!
For anyone that lands here. Here is what I found.
A list of 10 of them is here: (update link is dead now - Apr 2016)
http://www.net-kit.com/10-practical-jquery-style-switchers/
A replacement for the jquery theme switcher that you can run locally is here:
https://github.com/harborhoffer/Super-Theme-Switcher
I don't know about any other third party implementations, but it's easy to do yourself too. Just set an id on a link element and use jQuery to change the src attribute when a select box changes. Abstracting it into a plugin is pretty easy as well.
I don't want to sound like I am promoting a project I did, but I wrote a jQuery-UI theme switcher based on the themeswitchertool, in order to create one that actually works as advertised. Mine does not link to all the themes by default, but enables you to add any theme you want. Adding all the themes from the jQuery-UI site is trivial.
There is also Super Theme Switcher, which everyone else seems to be using, but it is not as feature-rich as mine, due to it being a port of the old themeswitchertool. This one DOES link all the jQuery UI themes by default.
I had similar errors so I downloaded the js from http://jqueryui.com/themeroller/themeswitchertool/, saved it as jquery.themeswitcher.js and replaced all http jquery-ui urls with google apis https urls.
The only changes were in the var switcherpane where each link looks like:
<li><a href=
"http://jqueryui.com/themeroller/css/parseTheme.css.php?....">
<img src=
"http://jqueryui.com/themeroller/images/themeGallery/theme_90_ui_dark.png" alt=
"UI Darkness" title="UI Darkness" /> <span class="themeName">UI
darkness</span></a></li>
Which I replaced with:
<li><a href="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.23/themes/ui-lightness/jquery-ui.css">
<img src="content/images/theme_90_ui_light.png" alt="UI Lightness" title=
"UI Lightness" /><span class="themeName">UI lightness</span></a></li>
If you search through the file there are a few other html images that are referenced further down.
You can find all the images here
You can simply set the src links to "https" and it will work fine.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/MyTheme.min.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/jquery.mobile.icons.min.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.1/jquery.mobile.structure-1.4.1.min.css" />
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.1/jquery.mobile-1.4.1.min.js"></script>
