I'm in the process of developing a Mobile version of some websites using the MVC4 *.mobile.cshtml system.
Everything is working great except when I try and view the sites on my HTC 8x. I get an outrageously large viewport, no javascript executing, offline touch regions and all-around incomplete pageload such that it doesn't function at all. I'm trying to diagnose/debug and not having any luck.
Using IE10 locally with a User Agent string for Windows Phone 8 doesn't show the same behavior. Further, using my exact UA string in any browser locally does not replicate the behavior. I've tried the various viewport workarounds posted on the internet and those have had no impact either.
I'm not on a Windows 8 machine, so I can't install the SDK/Emulator, but I suppose I could upgrade if no other options present themselves.
Anyone have any additional ideas as to how to test/diagnose/replicate this? I've been Googling for days and haven't been able to find any significant resource about this sort of thing.
This was a combination issue with Output Caching and the MVC DisplayModes bug.

I encounter the problem when I try to access the website of my software engineering uni course. On my desktop (Win10), phone and tablet (both Android) I receive a "SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP"-Error when trying to access the site.
The error appears regardless of browser, it seems to be system-wide.
Interestingly enough I can access the site on my laptop (Win10 + Manjaro) and could also access it on my desktops Manjaro partition. I could also access it on my phone in the uni-network - but not using mobile data.
However I am not sure, whether mobile data is to blame, as I logged in with my firefox account before receiving the error. Naturally I assumed it may have something to do with my firefox-preferences, but i am using the same account on my Manjaro Systems as well as the Win10 partition of my laptop. Besides me, none of my friends, except one have this problem.
I ran the URL through multiple different SSL-Checkers and every one of them encountered problems regarding the SSL-certificates. As the problem occures in different networks I can also rule out some router-settings of my home-network being the cause. Have you encountered such an error before and is there anything I can do on my own or is this an issue I should take up with my course-instructor and ask him to take a look at his server?
As it turns out the browser plugin "HTTPS Everywhere" was causing the problem.
The error occured in different browsers without the plugin because I copy-pasted the https URL. The issue appeared on my phone because of the shared browser history, which autocompleted the URL to the https version. The plugin is not installed on my Manjaro's Firefox, which is a bit strange as I though it would be shared.
Additionally, on Manjaro, Firefox does not suggest the https version of the site for auto-completion - maybe it favors sites opened on the specific device over sites opened on different devices. Either way, it works now.
I am doing some research into building a cross-platform desktop application using web technologies. Both node-webkit and electron/atom would be perfect for the job.
However, with it being a multi-window app, my clients aren't too keen on the vast number of processes which chromium creates (2 per window).
I've looked into passing some different command line switches, --single-process and a few others but they only seem to cause the app to crash on startup.
I then looked at node itself, the closest i got here was the process API exposes methods to set the group PID. Alas, this is unsupported on windows which is my primary target platform.
I don't know if you've ever googled "hide process from task manager", it's starting to look a bit scary and deep-webish. there must be an easier way.
Does anyone have some suggestions or maybe a different technology?
This isn't possible, sorry! The code that allows single-process in Chromium is busted and bitrotted
I've been dealing with the same issue and can confirm that as of Electron version 1.4.10 the --single-process flag is still crashing the app.
I ended up using --process-per-site. It groups the processes per web site/domain. If you are using Angular in your app (with the same index page), all Browsers will be launched with the same process.

when we develop any website then it looks good at our end but client may view the page with different browser then he/she face problem. i search for tool or way by which i can view my pages from my local machine using different browser and different version. i found few web site provide this facility and saw they very slow and they are giving image of my page which i do not want rather i want to view my page in browser. so i want a tool which allow me to select browser and version and then show my page in that browser with specific version. i may change version and page should refresh for changing browser or version. i hope there must be many tool available but unfortunately i not getting right single one. can anyone guide me. thanks
Adobe shut down BrowserLab a few weeks ago, but provided some guidance for other services that you can use on this page. There there are the Spoon.net browser sandboxes, but it installs the VM on your computer and I never liked that.
I personally use VMWare virtual machines with olders versions of IE on Windows, and Safari on a Mac VM. A little more effort to set this up, but I find it works best.
I need to create a way so that when users load our webpage inside IEmetro it switches them to IE10 Desktop automatically. Reason behind this is our website features won't work in IEmetro. our site is built in Aspx and cs code, java script and uses some jquery at times.
Does anyone have an idea how we can achieve this?
You don't have any control over what browser the user is using; and there is no reason why your site should not work in Internet Explorer in the Modern UI (formerly 'Metro'). The two browsers are nearly identical in just about every way.
If you're having problems working with Internet Explorer 10, please ask a more specific question here and/or work through the Internet Explorer 10 Guide for Developers.
I would also be interested in this.
IEMetro unfortunately has a number of features disabled, and shows javascript alerts differently drastically altering the user experience.
I know this isn't a direct programming question, but's it's kinda relevant as I'm trying to get a good testing environment set up before I embark on my latest project.
I'm trying to set up Opera Mobile for Windows to allow me to test a new website. The UserAgent I get is a fairly generic one, so my workaround is to tweak my mobile.browser file to have the correct screen width and height of the target device.
Is it possible to add to the list of "fake" user agents that Opera Mobile for Windows can pretend to be? It currently supports S60, Android and Windows Mobile.
You can modify headers using Fiddler scripts. From the examples at http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler/dev/scriptsamples.asp, here's a line that might be of particular interest:
