[Bug 17589] New: Strong Bad's Cool Game: launcher cannot connect to internet
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17589 Summary: Strong Bad's Cool Game: launcher cannot connect to internet Product: Wine Version: 1.1.16 Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: VincentBeers(a)gmail.com I haven't played the game Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People in a few months, but last time I tried playing it the game worked (after getting a native d3dx9_36.dll). Since then this specific DLL has been implemented into Wine itself, apparently. In 1.1.16 I tried rerunning the game and now two new problems (regressions) appeared (I'm making two bug entries). This is the second bug I have encountered: the launcher does not seem to be able to connect to the internet. This is a serious thing, because the launcher is there to make sure that you can log into your online account and have it check if you bought the game so you can play the full version. I have tried two test occasions: - One where I installed Internet Explorer 6 through Winetricks. The result was that I saw most of the launch screen now, but it simply wouldn't log in or register anything so I could only play the demo. - One where I used a clean wineprefix. The result was that I saw a simple white page asking me to enter the serial code (normal, was like this in older Wine). I entered my code. The result was that it just asked me the exact same after I entered it and clicked the button - nothing changed and I think this is because it can't connect to the server for some reason. Neither problem existed a few versions back, I could just register and play the game no problem. For testing purposes: if you don't have a serial number you can choose to play the demo, but only if the launcher screen shows up a bit more correctly (no white page). This can only be done if you have IE6 installed, however (crashed when I installed IE7). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Could you perform a regression test? http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting Also, does native shdocvw help? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

This is a regression in wine-gecko, as discovered in http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17883
The gist is that the launcher contains this line: <form method="get"> the new wine-gecko only works if you edit that to: <form method="get" action="index.html">
Thank you. 1.1.29 fixes the bug and I can finally enter my registration code and play the game again. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

This can't work anywhere, it's invalid. Action property is mandatory in all HTML & XHTML versions.
