Can Sun Jaya System Messaging Server's webmail supports flash animation?

Hi there,

I am new in Sun Jaya System Messaging Server. I would like to know whether is there a way to enable the feature in Sun Jaya System Messaging Server's webmail to support and view flash animation in the mail? If yes, what are the necessary step need to be done? Appreciate, if someone can give me some advices.

Thank you.

Cheers,

Steven

Hi,How are you 'calling' the script to be displayed in the email (what is the relevant HTML?)?If you rely on javascript to action the flash, well the answer is no, we disable javascript for security reasons (all javascript).Regards,Shane.

Hi Shane,

Thank you for your response.

Here is the sample of scripting. For your info, the flash is not working.

<html>

<body>

<object width="425" height="350"><

param name="movie" value="http://www.myserver.com/v/sample"></param>

<param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>

<embed src="http://www.myserver.com/v/sample" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350">

</embed></object>

</body>

</html>

Question1:For the above sample, do you think it works in webmail? If the answer is no, how to make it works?

Question2: Is that a way to ENABLE the javascript in the Messaging Server webmail's configuration? I know there is a security hole if i enable the javascript function.

Thanks.

Steven

I have no way to test the above myself, but a quick look at the code would indicate that embed is treated the same as javascript, I suggest that you try it out and see -- that is the only true way to know.

No. An RFE (request for enhancement) was recently logged for just this functionality -- RFE #6568524 - "Provide option to allow javascript to be executed". If you want this functionality included in a future release you will need to push your local Sun Account Rep's (don't bother logging a support case, there is nothing we can do).

Please note however that given the potential security implications of allowing this, be prepared to justify and define exactly what javascript should be allowed rather then just carte blanche 'support'.

Shane.
