A website doesn't display properly on iMac
Hi
I'm stumped.
I own both an iMac and a MacBook.
Lately I've been trying to use www.theknot.com and while the website does work, it displays totally wrong on my iMac (the middle section is sent way down the page or in a ridiculous way (see pic)
I looked at all I could think of (not a newbie, but not savvy enough to go look in the coding to look for errors there).
The one section from the site which displays correctly is one without a menu on both right and left. It's a blog. Here's a clue, I guess.
I tried with both Safari 5.1.6 and Firefox 13.0, with the exact same result.
But on my Macbook it displays perfect! I am using Firefox 12.0 on it.
So I downgraded to Firefox 12.0 on the iMac... no success.
Of course I also cleared the cache, closed the browser, and the computer... no luck.
I then removed all plugins, since it was the only remaining difference... nope.
I thought it could be a difference in display... altough I couldn't see how... I changed it from 1920x1080 to the ones similar to my Macbook's (1280x1024 and 1280x720)... Of course it was the same, just more blurry.
It doesn't make sense and I hate it when it doesn't make sense!
Of course I hate it even more that I can't use that website on my iMac!!! (or with a lot of hassle).
If someone knows what other setting I could've missed that can be different between the iMac and Macbook, can influence the website display in both Safari and Firefox, please do tell! :-)
Thanks
BTW your picture does not show. I'd start by resetting Safari, Safari - Reset. Try that and clearing it's cookies, after doing both then restart in Safe Mode to clear some caches, then restart normally and try again.

Website doesn't display properly in Firefox. Web operator says use IE.
I logged into a website the other day and parts of the page display incorrectly in Firefox. The owner says "we don't support Firefox" Is there a way to tell FF to open the page automatically in IE when I type in that URL? This was an option in a previous version of FF but it's disappeared. Same problem occurs with my machine and the machine at work so it's not O/S based
You can look at these extensions:
* IE Tab 2 (FF 3.6+): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/92382
* IE Tab Plus (FF 3.6+): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/10909/
* IE View: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/35

Some text on websites doesn't display properly
Some text doesn't appear correct in Firefox (but does in IE). The text appears to get jumbled or scrambled but if I cut and paste the text from Firefox to a text file, the text is normal so it must be something in the display setting. The link below is a screenshot of Firefox.
[http://www.pkhlineworks.ca/screen.jpg]
Any ideas what is causing this?This issue can be caused by an old bitmap version of the Helvetica or Geneva font or (bitmap) fonts that Firefox can't display in that size.<br />
Firefox can't display some old bitmap fonts in a larger size and displays gibberish instead.<br />
You can test that by zooming out (View > Zoom > Zoom Out, Ctrl -) to make the text smaller.<br />
<br />
Uninstall (remove) all variants of that not working font to make Firefox use another font or see if you can find a True type version that doesn't show the problem.<br />
There have also been fonts with a Chinese name reported that identify themselves as Helvetica, so check that as well.<br /> -
Some websites do not display properly or function
Using Firefox v29.0.1; running Win 7 Pro 64-bit version.
Some websites do not display properly - as if Firefox is not finding the CSS (Facebook for one).
Also, on Craig's List, I can't click on any of the links including the contact/reply button.
Wanted to attach screenshots but see no place to do so.
Thanks,
paulp575Looks like something in my history must have been causing it.
That's the only step I needed to go through and seems as though everything has cleared up - for now.
Thanks Phillipp for your help!

Dreamweaver 8 doesn t work properly on imac intel "17"
Hello guys need some help, I m new to mac and I´ve installed dreamweaver 8 but it doesn t work properly. Instead of the insert toolbar I get boxes with a '?' plus in some occasion when I want to save a work instead of the usual " save or ok or discard" the button appears as " undefined". Can anyone help please?
Here is a picture of the error I get. Regards
http://flickr.com/photos/37586542@N00/
imac 17 intel duo Mac OS X (10.4.6)It would appear to me when you installed Dreamweaver,
some image files got misplaced or lost by mistake.
Did you ever go and search for images and start
erasing images you didn't know what they came from?
If you did, then those may be the image. Those
images are little modular pieces that Dreamweaver
uses to display information on the screen.
I would install Dreamweaver from scratch and make
sure it is in the Applications folder.
Hi, did everything posible, I even downloaded a evaluation version, just in case but it seems it s only me who has this problem, I problaby need to download somekind of firmware or java but don t know which. Cheers -
E61i internet browser doesn't display properly
Hello,
I never had any problems browsing the internet on my E61i. My Nokia is always switched on, but today I had to switch it off for a while. After switching in on again, I wanted to use the internet on it. The strange thing was that it wouldn't display any web page properly any more. Pages look messy, like the web browser doesn't how to handle HTML etc. and display it properly.
I often visit web pages not specially made for PDA's, so when visiting these I had to scroll horizontally. That was ok. But now when visiting these pages I cannot scroll horizontally any more; the browser puts all web page contents beneath each other, if you know what I mean. Now I can only scroll vertically.
The conclusion is that many web pages I used to visit have now become useless since the E61i web browser doesn't display them any more as they used to be displayed, the pages used to look like as if you visited them from a PC, but not any more.
Does anybody have a clue?It sounds like a cache issue. When you view the page, that
page is loaded into your (or your client's) browser's cache memory.
This is done so that when you return to that page it will load
faster (since it is already loaded into memory).
This will only happen if a person has been to the page
recently. There is a limit on the amount of information your
browser will store in cache memory. The more you surf, the more
likely it is that the page will be replaced in the cache memory
with some other information.
You (and your client) can, depending on what browser you are
using, set your preferences so that all web pages will be
completely reloaded every time you visit them. In IE 6 for Win:
Tools>Internet Options>Settings> Select 'Every visit to
the page'. You can also set your cache to be the minimum amount of
space alotted. Note: This doesn't really work very well in IE 6 for
WIN. I use firefox for reviewing changes because I have found IE 6
is completely unreliable for viewing the latest.
Most other browsers will allow you to hold down Shift and hit
'refresh' to throw out the cache for that page and view the latest.
As far as I know this is standard operating procedure for proofing
new pages.
If there is a coding technique to force a browser to use only
the latest information, I don't know what it is.
Good luck. -

Externally loaded swf in second window doesn't display properly?
I have a bitmap based flash game (bitmapdata generated screen) that I'm trying to load in to a secondary nativewindow generated from a main flash (not AJAX/HTML) based AIR app that's a graphical menu. I.E. you click on a selection in the menu, and it pops open a secondary nativewindow with the flash game running in it. The problem is, the game itself gets mangled in the secondary window when it loads in. Keyboard input goes away, the bitmap doesn't draw properly (it streaks like its not drawing the background image each frame), most of the game objects its supposed to draw in to the bitmap are missing, etc.
When I make the game itself in to its own AIR app and run it direct, it works just fine. So I'm puzzled. Is there some kind of special coding considerations in the as3 side that I'm missing with the original game? I.E. if a flash based AIR app launches another nativewindow and loads a swf in to that, does it share some kind of variable set, display list, etc. with the calling window? Something else? Any help would be appreciated.There are a few differences between (A.) letting the AIR runtime load content into the initial window and (B.) loading content into a new NativeWindow.
1. In case A, the stage property is available in the class constructor for the main sprite. In case B, this is not the case. You may have to use an ADDED_TO_STAGE event handler to do some class initialization.
2. In case A, the initial scale is based on the metadata present in the SWF -- this results in the behavior you would expect. In case B, there is no SWF to base the scale on when the window is created, so a default scale is used -- this is rarely results in behavior you would expect (unless the window happens to be created with a size of 72x72 pixels).
If you aren't setting the stage to noScale, then this could account for some of the visual issues. (See http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/quickstart/launching_windows.html for an explanation of the scaling issues.) The easiest thing to do is to set the Stage scaleMode to noScale and the align property to the top left setting. I'm guessing your drawing code isn't expecting the scaling so things are getting put in the wrong place.
3. In case A, the content is automatically put in the application sandbox. In case B, it depends on the URL.
As for the Keyboard input, this may depend on how you are loading the SWF and from where. This could be related to #3 above, although I would expect to see security errors. How are you adding your keyboard event handlers? -
Navigator Window Doesn't display properly
Hello,
Suddenly the Navigator Window on the Left of JDeveloper doesn't show properly.Usually the window has 2 subwindows : the top which displays WorkSPace-Projects-classes and bottom which shows the members and methods for each class. Now my top window doesn't show at all. It is like it has been minimized and i cannot restore it. The bottom window occupies all the space.
When i place the cursor on top of the upper border of the bottom window (just under the green X icon) the cursor changes to a shape that shows that there is another window there but i cannot drag the border down and display again the top navigator window.
What can i do about that ? ?I have seen this problem before but I have not been able to reproduce it.
The workaround is to:
- Open the 'Welcome' workspace (Help|Welcome Workspace)
- Close JDeveloper
- Launch JDeveloper
- Open your workspace
Hope this helps.
Please let us know if you are still running into problems.

SimpleChat doesn't display properly for spark on mobile
I'm using the latest LCCS Spark Beta version. The SimpleChat displays RAW html instead of the styled text, plus it doesn't scroll properly. This problem was posted a few months back but is yet to be resolved. Looking at the LCCS sdk source code, the problem seems obvious: SimpleChat uses the class RichTextArea which the lccs team has created. That class checks to see if "textFlow" exists. If it doesn't as in the case of mobile it just assigns the raw html to the text field which is obviously unacceptable since the user will end up seeing raw html instead of styled text. Below is the problematic code in the lccs RichTextArea class. Is LCCS team supporting mobile devices?
if (textFlow)
textFlow = TextConverter.importToFlow(str, TextConverter.TEXT_FIELD_HTML_FORMAT);
else {
//StyleableTextField(textDisplay).htmlText = str;
textDisplay.text = str;www.pianofortemusicschool.com

CSS - main content h1 and p text doesn't display properly
Hi all,
I know this is something really simple, but I just can't seem to get it right. The h1 and the p text in the main content should have left and right padding to display properly (i.e. space on either side so it's not squished against the Accordion Spry), but it doesn't work. It shows correctly in DW, but not online. I'm just learning CSS so sorry for the ignorance! I've tried everything I know and can't seem to get it right. I would appreciate ANY help at all.
http://www.TailgatorsHockey.com/news.html
Attached is the .css file...
Thanks so much!The padding and margin are certainly showing in the browser for the h1 tag but you have no padding or margin declared in your css styles for the paragraph tag in the 'main-content' <div>
Add ths to your css styles:
#main-content p {
padding: 0 25px 0 25px; /*top/right/bottom/left*/
margin-left: 10px; -

Website doesn't load properly in Firefox and IR.
Does anybody know why my website:
www.clicktoneproductions.com doesn't load properly in firefox and
Internet explorer but seems to load okay in safari? This is my
first ever website so I'm not too familiar with CSS although I've
used Div Tags to contain all the links and used CSS for the
background image.
In firefox/IR the background image either doesn't load at all
or loads sometimes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!Start by adding a valid doctype and validating the page.
Also, why do you have a splash page that does nothing other than
open a popup? Many people will not disable their popup blocker just
to enter your site and the splash page adds nothing of
value.
