IDP Problem with JavaScript in Internet Explorer

Hi all,

 

We are trying to modify the default login.jsp that comes packaged with
IDP. During our customization we added some JavaScript code. The JS code
reads and writes values to an Adobe flash object (Local Shared Object)
on the client side.

 

When IDP is deployed on machine running Tomcat 6.0 the page works fine
in Firefox and Chrome. In Internet Explorer the page/javascript
functions do not behave as expected.

The strange part is that when I move my JSP to a different folder in the
webapps directory, meaning outside the idp's context, it then works in
all browsers.

 

The following URL does not work in Internet Explorer but works in
Firefox and Chrome.

Tomcat6.0\webapps\IDP\login.jsp

 

Now if I move the JSP to another location in webapps the JSP works fine
in all browsers.

Tomcat6.0\webapps\test\login.jsp

 

Browser versions part of my development are

Internet Explorer 8

Firefox 5

Chrome 13

 

I am really perplexed as to what the problem is. Just as a shot in the
dark, is there some browser specific filtering done in IDP? 

 

Thanks
