Cannot run Oracle Forms 9i with IE 8

RoxyrollersAug 20 2012 — edited Aug 22 2012
Morning folks. This is a new machine for me and am having some difficulty running Oracle Forms 9i. I have my OC4J Instance Initiated and when I run a form, IE did start up.

1. The first time, I got the message "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this webpage from running scripts or Active X controls that could access your computer. Click Here for Options ...
2. Clicked on "Allow Blocked Content" and Pressed Yes
3. Got a response back saying "Trying to recover page" and it was very quick.
4. I now have a Website restore error page with the following line in the address bar: res://ieframe.dll/acr_error.htm#,http://oracle-trevor:8890/forms90/f90servlet

5. Closed IE
6. Ran the form again.
7. This time I don't get an Error but HTML on the page which is the same when you do a "View Source"

{code}
<html> <head> ORACLE FORMS.</head>
<body onload="document.pform.submit();" >
<form name="pform" action="http://oracle-trevor:8890/forms90/f90servlet" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="form" value="C:\STUDENT TRACKING\student_mapping_list.fmx">
<input type="hidden" name="userid" value="TREVOR/Password@dbdev">
<input type="hidden" name="obr" value="yes">
<input type="hidden" name="array" value="YES">
</form> </body></html>
{code}


*Forms Version*
{code}
Forms [32 Bit] Version 9.0.4.0.19 (Production)
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production
Internet Explorer 8
Windows XP Pro
{code}

*Regedit Settings*
{code}
FORMS90_PATH = C:\oracle\oracle9i\cgenf61\admin;C:\oracle\oracle9i\forms90
{code}

Is this because I don't have the *JInitiator*? I used to have Fireefox as my default browser where it did prompt me to install the *JInitiator* but that did not work. I made IE my default browser hoping it would work but it's not.

Thanks for your time.
