Sue,
Hopefully the screenshots come thru. If not I can make a word doc or
something.
>From the business workplace (SWUS) you can use the menu Settings ->
Workflow Settings -> Personal Settings
>From the test workflow (SWUS) you would use menu Goto -> Personal workflow
settings
...and get the following dialog. If you click the "No HTML in execution
of decision tasks" checkbox then no HTML will be used in the dialog
display.
It will take a decision task that looks something like this...
and turn it into something like this...
this helped us to determine that the problem was client specific (meaning
a display problem) and not a server problem. The dialog was properly
formed, it just couldn't display using HTML. To find out what is wrong
with the clients, you would have to look in OSS or something. Also you
may check that GuiXT is not interfering somehow.

Hi Michael,
Thank you for your response.
I hope this is not a stupid question, but how do you turn off the HTML
rendering?
Regards,
Sue Doughty

Sue,
I'm very late on this issue, but we had a similar problem a few years ago
that was ultimately related to some problems between (let's say) Microsoft
and SAP. It was specific to a few PCs though and not which server was
being used.
Not that you wouldn't already know this, but there is a way to turn off
the HTML rendering so that you only get a kind of old-school looking
decision popup instead of the full blown HTML. That would at least tell
you if this is an HTML issue or really a problem with the decision dialog
rendering...

Re: Strange Behavior of Decision Work Item
Hi Sue,
Slightly offbeat approach: It looks like it may be an HTML page not
rendering, which could point to frontend issues. Are dev/prd systems on
the same patch level? And have you tried logging on and testing it in dev
and QA/PRD from the same machine?
Regards,
Mike
