Browser Applications - Handling Network Disconnects

The KioskIE.exe browser can redirect to a custom Error Recovery Page if it detects an Internet Explorer error page
(like a error 404). Since the errors are likely to occur during network outages, Symbol recommends using locally
stored files to drive the custom error recovery page. Once directed to a local URL, a customer friendly message
appears while script code retries to connect.

Configuring Error Page Redirection

KioskIE includes an Error Page Redirection feature that defines specific HTML code as errors and allows the
KioskIE to navigate to an on-board error recovery page. For this purpose the .reg file KioskIE_ErrorPageList.reg is
added to either the Platform or Application folder. The .reg file includes the following entries:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Symbol\IEBrowser]
"PageErrorList"=hex(7):\ 54,68,65,20,70,61,67,65,20,63,61,6e,6e,6f,74,20,62,65,20,66,6f,75,6e,64,00,\
43,61,6e,6e,6f,74,20,66,69,6e,64,20,73,65,72,76,65,72,00,\
46,6f,72,63,65,20,45,72,72,6f,72,00,00,00,00
These entries correspond to the following common errors reported by most Web servers:
•
Line 1: The page cannot be found.
•
Line 2: Cannot find server.
•
Line 3: Force error.
To add a new error page, append the title of the error page to the registry entry above. The entry is stated in the
hex value of the corresponding ASCII characters in the title of the error page.
For example, to add an error page titled "AAA BBBB CCCCC" to the error pages shown above, append the registry
entry for the new error page as 'line 4', shown below.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Symbol\IEBrowser]
"PageErrorList"=hex(7):\
54,68,65,20,70,61,67,65,20,63,61,6e,6e,6f,74,20,62,65,20,66,6f,75,6e,64,00,\
43,61,6e,6e,6f,74,20,66,69,6e,64,20,73,65,72,76,65,72,00,\
46,6f,72,63,65,20,45,72,72,6f,72,00,\
