BUG Editor Applet not working when using @ in URL

Hint Short Cut: Add this to your code & documentation to help you find this page.
http://www.notesninjas.com/#AtInURL or http://www.notesninjas.com/A555F9/nn.nsf/ByAlias/AtInURL

When using the editor applet in conjunction with a URL that has the userid:password@ prefix to a URL the editor

applet does not load.

"load: class lotus.notes.apps.editorapplet.EditorApplet not found" appeears in status bar in browser.

I have recently noticed this when using R5.08 server. It worked fine previously.


The only solution is not to use the editor applet with the userid passsword prefix.

I suspect this might be a security setting bug.

One solution is to use the userid and password for one page (maybe the read version of the document) and then the next page that uses the

editor applet should strip of the password.

By then the browser should have authenticated with the server anyway, and the password should not be needed.

This could be done with an Action button. If you need code for this let us know.
