PRB: Cannot View Welcome Pages on Visual J++ CD

ID: Q165551

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual J++, version 1.0
Microsoft Internet Explorer, versions 4.0, 4.01

SYMPTOMS

When viewing the pages in the Welcome directory of Visual J++ 1.0, with Netscape Navigator, Netscape Communicator, or Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0, the following error message is generated:

Welcome to Visual J++ requires a frames-capable browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0, which is included on the Visual J++ Installation CD.

CAUSE

Although these browsers support frames, there is a conflict between the BODY and FRAMESET tags in the HTML files.

RESOLUTION

Copy the Welcome directory and its subdirectories to your local drive, then remove the <BODY> and </BODY> lines from the following three files:


   \welcome\devproc\devproc.htm
   \welcome\interest\interest.htm
   \welcome\started\started.htm

To start the introduction pages, run the Welcome.exe program in the welcome directory.
