PRB: Applications That Use the WSSForms Renderer May Not Render Correctly (303126)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server SP1
This article was previously published under Q303126

SYMPTOMS

An application that uses the WSSForms Renderer may not render correctly. Known symptoms include the following:
  • Wfview.htc is not rendered at all.
  • Styles may be wrong for several objects.
  • Values that are entered into edit controls may not be saved.

CAUSE

The version of the WSSForms Renderer that is included in Exchange 2000 Server Service Pack 1 (SP1) verifies syntax more strictly than the earlier version, which allowed you to omit quotation marks around the values of some attributes.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, add quotation marks around the element attributes in the lines of code that cause the failure.

MORE INFORMATION

One application that exhibits this problem is the Contacts application in versions of the Exchange Software Development Kit (SDK) prior to the June 2001 version. For example, the following line of code can be found in the Contacts application in versions of the Exchange SDK earlier than June 2001: 
<style type=text/css>
The preceding code works on Exchange 2000 Server prior to the SP1 installation; however, after you install SP1, this code does not give the desired result. To resolve this problem, change the code as follows: 
<style type="text/css">
In another example, the following code in the same sample does not give the desired result after you install SP1: 
name=http://schemas.microsoft.com/somepropname
To resolve this problem, change the code as follows: 
name="http://schemas.microsoft.com/somepropname"
