Google Drive webViewLink doesn't work on safari but it works everywhere else - safari

first time posting here. I have succesfully created code that imports a webViewLink from google drive with this format.

It works wonderfully everywhere and loads fast, except on safari... Sometimes it works but then after a few minutes no.
Things worth noting is that I'm in NextJS.

Google NoCaptcha ReCaptcha

If correct, Google introduced Google's NoCaptcha ReCaptcha on december 3th. More information can be found on their official blog.
After reading their story, they refer to their good old ReCaptcha site. Seemingly this has been renewed. So I created an account and started testing. However, I already stumble on two questions that don't seem to be answered on their own site. Google-ing results in old and mostly useless information about the "old" ReCaptcha module.
The thing is not responsive. This seems weird to me. I know I can make it responsive or use a framework or something to do so. But all the HTML / CSS is generated by the plugin itself. Is there some universal solution for this, or Am I missing something?
Sometimes clicking the checkbox is all that's needed, but often I still get the old misformed pictures that are still hard to read. In other words, sometimes it looks like nothing has changed. Is this normal, or is this thing not fully released yet?

Capturing picture from webcam without flash?

I'm looking for a script to do this. I've found photobooth.js, but it seems to bug (when accepting the script to access to my webcam, all page is disapearing excepts the video...)
Do you know a script which do that job please?
I think, without flash it's problem, i'm using webcam plugin, here's a link: http://www.xarg.org/project/jquery-webcam-plugin/
It uses flash, but works fine for me.

Google maps api 3 with places DEMO works only in Chrome... why?

There's a lot of Google Maps API Places info on here already, but here's a demo which show a lot of what many people seem to be having problems with, sadly though it only works in Chrome (at least not in Firefox or IE).
http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/places/2012-may-hangout/search.html
Can anyone explain why? it has a lot of unnecessary things like animated dropping of markers, but has a really good example of the difference between google.maps.places.RankBy.DISTANCE; and google.maps.places.RankBy.PROMINENCE; presenting ordered markers and reasults in a table with type icons.
I just visited the link in your question, using IE8, and it seems to run fine:
What is the problem you are having in IE?

Embedding PDF on website - without uploading to other service

On our site we use Google's document viewer to let users view PDF and other documents in the browser. But Google's viewer is not very good, when used without being Google. Quite often it doesn't show anything, and the limit for the PDF file is around 10/20mb. The main issue is that it quite often just doesn't show any files.
So, we're looking for a way to show pdf (and other documents) on our site. It would be great if it could be done without us having to upload it to another service as this complicates the process.
The pricing is not an issue, so even if you know an expensive service, it would be great to let us know.
Or if anyone has other solutions then it would be great to hear of that too.
Thanks,
Tobias
Through another source we were suggested to use Scribd, and our first tests shows that it works great. The documentation is good-ish so it's easy enough to set up.

How can I go about automating the testing of the migration of local web apps from IE6 to IE8?

I have been researching this a wee bit and it seems to boil down to:
'Eyeball Mark 1'
The best tip seems to be the use of SuperPreview from Microsoft's Expression team.
If anyone has automated a way to go about this I would love to hear about it.
Also, I believe that SuperPreview requires a work around for a password protected app to work properly. There is a work around at MSDN Blog, but if anyone has come up with another way, could you share it with me please?
Thanks in advance!
Some products, like Telerik WebUI Test Studio, lets you build your test and play a movie with the results in different browsers (not sure about IE6 and IE8 support)
Others lets you compare bitmaps of screenshots of tests in one browser and the other. The problem is that the minimum 1-bit shift will result in an test error.
