I have a legacy web application. The app needs to be opened in IE while the user opens it from Edge Chromium. I've added the URL to the EM site list XML on a NAS share. This works great for other legacy applications we have.
However, this application uses a HTTP POST request.
When a user navigates in Edge to the web application, it loads fine in a new IE11 screen.
But when you use the search, it opens in a new Window and it seems the parameters from the HTTP POST request are not included. This results in a null request.
Is there any setup needed to include the HTTP post request in IE mode? I can't find this anywhere in the MS documentation.
We've replaced the post request with a get request and solved the issue this way
We had the same symptoms. I did not verify that the http method was changed from POST to GET, but the form variables from a POST operation were not being transmitted to the next page.
We were able to get this working by adding the source page (the one with the form variables in it) to the Enterprise Mode Site List in Edge.
In Edge, paste the following into the address bar (without the quotes): "edge://compat/SiteListManager"
I checked the box to Allow Redirects and also used IE5 Document mode as the Compat Mode because that is what was indicated by f12 tools when running the same page in real IE 11.

I have ssl in my e-commerce web site. At first, browser always asking "do you want to show this web site's content" in all page and when I redirect to mycart page browser shows the same alert like that "This webpage contains content that will not be delivered using a secure HTTPS connection, which could comprise the safety of the entire webpage....Yes...No....". After I clicked to yes, all my sessions get null. Do you have any suggestions for me?
KR,

The problem is your secure page is accessing information (scripts, images, etc.) from pages that are not secure. For example if you reference a javascript file (say jQuery) from a nonsecure site (say Google) then certain browsers (like IE) will display this message. You need to search through your references and find these. In other words searching src="http or something along those lines will pull up the nonsecure references.
Depending on what you are referencing you can move those items to your site so that they are now "secure". Also, in some cases changing your reference from src="http to src="https can resolve the problem.
Once you resolve this alert you can check again to see if you are having sessions issues as you could have some other issues to address.
I don't know exactly when this changed but probably around version 18...
In the past when a flash app (SWF) would make an AJAX call i can see the call logged and the response (which would be JSON) would be available in both the preview and response sub-tabs of the Network tab - mind you the response would not be pretty-printed tree in the preview tab.
Now, I see the AJAX calls and all the header info, but the Preview and Response sub-tabs are empty!
Is there a flag/setting that would log these? (I'm on Chrome 20)
The Adobe Acrobat browser plug-in is being used to accept form input from a user. After a user has completed the PDF form and clicked its submit button, the form data is posted to an Asp.Net page that accepts the data, stores it and returns a message as HTML.
This works fine in Acrobat Reader in Firefox. Within Internet Explorer, our targeted browser, after the PDF form has been submitted, the data is accepted by Asp.Net, saved to disk and, by way of a packet sniffer, I can see that the HTML response is served, but IE hangs after the PDF is unloaded like it's trying to load the response, but never does.
I've determined that the problem occurs with IIS6 and IIS7, with or without SSL, on Windows XP and 7, and with Adobe Reader 9 and 10; what considerations am I overlooking?
This behavior seems to occur in Internet Explorer when the Acrobat Reader plug-in sends the HTTP POST followed by an alert dialog box being invoked with something like the following:
app.alert({
cMsg: "Error! Try again!",
cTitle: "Acme Testing Service"
});
The issue seems to stem from running a script after the HTTP POST has been sent; reordering the sequence of events has resolved the issue I was experiencing.
What does "Pending" mean under the status column in the "Network" tab of Google Chrome Developer window?
This happens when my page script issues a GET request whose response contains content-headers for downloading a CSV file:
Content-type: text/csv;
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=myfile.csv
This works fine in FF and IE7, downloading a CSV file as expected and opening a file picker to save the file, but Chrome does nothing. I confirmed that the server responds to the request, so it appears that Chrome will not process the response.
Curiously, all works as expected if I type the URL into Chromes address bar and hit <enter>.
FYI: Chrome 10.0.648.204 on Windows XP
In my case, I found that the "pending" status was caused by the AdBlock extension. The image that I couldn't get to load had the word "ad" in the URL, so AdBlock kept it from loading.
Disabling AdBlock fixes this issue.
Renaming the file so that it doesn't contain "ad" in the URL also fixes it, and is obviously a better solution. Unless it's an advertisement, in which case you should leave it like that.
I also get this when using the HTTPS everywhere plugin.
This plugin has a list of sites that also have https instead of http. So I assume before the actual request is made it is already being cancelled somehow.
So for example when I go to http://stackexchange.com, in Developer I first see a request with status (terminated). This request has some headers, but only the GET, User-Agent, and Accept. No response as well.
Then there is request to https://stackexchange.com with full headers etc.
So I assume it is used for requests that aren't sent.
I had some problems with pending request for mp3 files.
I had a list of mp3 files and one player to play them. If I picked a file that had already been downloaded, Chrome would block the request and show "pending request" in the network tab of the developer tools.
All versions of Chrome seem to be affected.
Here is a solution I found:
player[0].setAttribute('src','video.webm?dummy=' + Date.now());
You just add a dummy query string to the end of each url. This forces Chrome to download the file again.
Another example with popcorn player (using jquery) :
url = $(this).find('.url_song').attr('url');
pop = Popcorn.smart( "#player_", url + '?i=' + Date.now());
This works for me. In fact, the resource is not stored in the cache system. This should also work in the same way for .csv files.
I had the same issue on OSX Mavericks, it turned out that Sophos anti-virus was blocking certain requests, once I uninstalled it the issue went away.
If you think that it might be caused by an extension one easy way to try and test this is to open chrome with the '--disable-extensions flag to see if it fixes the problem. If that doesn't fix it consider looking beyond the browser to see if any other application might be causing the problem, specifically security apps which can affect requests.
I had a similar issue with application/json ajax calls. In ff/IE they were fine. In chrome in the Developer Network window Status was always (pending) because a different status code was being returned.
In my case I changed my Json response to send a HttpStatusCode of 200 then Chrome was fine and the Status Text changed to 200 OK.
For example using ASP.NET Web Api
return new HttpResponseMessage(HttpStatusCode.OK ) {
Content = request.Content
};
The Network pending state on time, means your request is in progressing state. As soon as it responds the time will be updated with total elapsed time.
This picture shows the network call is in processing state(Pending)
This picture shows the time taken in processing by network call.
The fix, for me, was to add the following to the top of the php file which was being requested.
header("Cache-Control: no-cache,no-store");
Same problem with Chrome : I had in my html page the following code :
<body>
...
<script src="http://myserver/lib/load.js"></script>
...
</body>
But the load.js was always in status pending when looking in the Network pannel.
I found a workaround using asynchronous load of load.js:
<body>
...
<script>
setTimeout(function(){
var head, script;
head = document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0];
script = document.createElement("script");
script.src = "http://myserver/lib/load.js";
head.appendChild(script);
}, 1);
</script>
...
</body>
Now its working fine.
Encountered a similar issue recently.
My App is in angular 11 and we have a form with some validators which have regex to validate the data. One of data element had a special character which the regex wasn't handling and it made the entire browser hung up. Infact, even though all network calls were successful with 200 Ok, chrome was not showing any response returned by the backend and was also showing the requests in Pending State when infact all network calls are successful, there was no console log errors or anything. Handling the regex fixed the issue.
After i found the issue, i googled more about it. Here is more explanation about it.

I came across this issue when I was debugging a local web application. The issue turned out to be AVG Antivirus and Firewall restrictions. I had to allow an exception through the firewall to get rid of the "Pending" status.
In my case, a simple restart to my browser (chrome) and it worked straight away afterwards like magic!
Little bit of context, I happen to refresh my frontend web page and straight away went onto making a changes to my API which led it to restart. During that instance, the frontend was making calls to API which led into "pending" due to that API is reloading. Browser at this point cached that pending state. For me to get out of it is either I set no-cache (which I didn't want to) or simply restart the browser, I chose the restart.
A little background
I encountered such an issue when requesting an url in my Django project. The server is setup using Apache HTTP web server and basic auth for user authentication.
The url I was accessing required no authentication to access i.e. in my Apache config, I had set Require all granted on the url using the LocationMatch directive.
The issue
The url I was trying to access returned 200 status (in the Network tab in Chrome), but the static assets being used for styling of the requested webpage (css, javascript, font files etc.) associated with the request url were not loading and returned pending status.
In the meanwhile, the page loaded partially and still kept on loading. All this was happening in the presence of basic-auth dialog in browser, even though my url was granted all access.
What worked for me
Interestingly, as I entered my credentials and logged in, the requested page loaded all the static assets. This made it very clear to me that the static assets directory might NOT have the necessary access permissions.
Then, I granted the access to the static assets directory by updating my Apache config and then the requested url and the webpage loaded up fine (200 status) without any basic auth dialog OR pending status.
In my case, there's an update for Chrome that makes it won't load before you restart the browser. Cheers
I encountered the same problem when I request certain images from page. I use JavaScript to set the src attribute of an img object and if the network is poor pending will be displayed in the network panel of chrome developer window. I think it's due to the poor network.
