Mea Culpa - Internet Explorer now renders my iWeb 2 test site correctly?

After umpteen server tweaks I finally got my iWeb 2 test site uploaded
http://www.mjweber.com/mjwredsite/mjweber/welcome.html
It displayed as designed in Safari on my MBP. I then fired up XP in Parallels and loaded the site in Internet Explorer. I didn't expect it to work but it did. Now I'm really stymied!
I've had numerous compatibility issues with iWeb 2 and IE in the past week paralleled here by hundreds of other posts here. Now, when I finally upload the site, it suddenly works?
Either the Internet gods are playing with me or the IE incompatibility stems from launching a published iWeb 2 folder from a local XP hard drive. That's where my navigation menus didn't display. What else can I say? I'm going to have a drink.
I'd appreciate independent site validations by anyone not using Safari or OS X... Linux, Unix, Windows, Netscape, IE, etc. Thanks!

Hi thanks for the advice, the text is centred vertically , left aligned and there is plenty of space at the end. I will try increasing width/height but not sure if that will help as box is already much bigger than text.
In fact it works perfectly on another web page ...thats what surprising ....even the html for the two pages is identical from what we can see!
Take a look at
www.cibsys.com/cibsys1/index.html on the UK site and run down the various pages on the left side to see what happens (if you have IE on a PC). On the PC on some pages perhaps 30% eg workflow services the menu on the left fails to draw correctly leaving the text un readable.
Thanks

How do I return functionality of my bookmarks menu before Firefox update 23.0.1? I don't LIKE internet explorer, now my firefox is acting like IE; gee thanks.

How can I restore the functionality of the Bookmarks shortcut. I DO NOT LIKE internet explorer, it is cumbersome and slow. How can I modify the bookmarks shortcut to act like a menu again? I do not like the bookmarks and history pop-out... Firefox was above the bar, now I have 2 copies of internet explorer on my computer, one with an icon that looks like an E and one that looks like my old firefox browser.... This was a result of the update 23.0.1 this morning, it was perfect when I went to bed last night.... Maybe I should use Chrome?

does it work as expected when you launch firefox in safe mode once (to rule out the interfering of any addons)?

Internet Explorer 7 - Trouble loading iWeb 08 Pages

Is anyone else having trouble with iWeb 08 pages not loading properly when viewed in Internet Explorer 7?
Everything loads fine on a Mac (Firefox 2.0) and even on a PC using Firefox but when viewing the site from IE7 it seems like pages containing photos (ie photo pages and blog entries) are having trouble loading completely. The images never appear or some images appear or some thumbnails fail to appear in the new photo gallery page.
Solutions? Work arounds? Or is this just a bug that needs to be repaired in an upgrade?
I love the Mac but the new iWeb and iPhoto seem a little glitchy out of the box.

mtd,
I tested your site on my PC with IE 7. No problems. In fact I tested load times for both Safari (Mac) and IE (PC) and they were almost identical. I compared screens side by side and they looked the same. Some of you may not have updated versions of IE. Additionally the IE browser settings can be a bit tricky. You know, it's MS so troubleshooting is a given! One suggestion is to delete all the cookies currently running in IE 7 and give it another viewing.
I have noticed that some themes slow down both browsers. It's a matter of complexity of the theme.
All the Best,

News Feed Not Rending in Internet Explorer but Rendering in all Others

I have a problem that is causing a major headache. I purchased a news feed from a site to put on my site. It is a simple cut and paste. The feed renders in Safari, Opera, Firefox, and Chrome, but it won't render in Internet Explorer. I have tried IE 6,7,8 to no avail. I ran validation on it and just saw the usual errors. Here is the link to the page:
http://www.md-mortgages.com/news.html
Here is the code I pasted into the body:
<p align="center"><script type="text/javascript" src="http://feeds.mortgagenewsdaily.com/Scripts/NewsFeed.js" id="MNDNewsFeed">
{ subscriberKey: "49664" }
</script>
I have no idea why IE won't render this. Any ideas? I attached the document.

Just tested it in IE7 and the news feed works fine too
Thanks, latest news

Internet explore can not open some web site!!

Internet explore cannot open some web site including yahoo game.
whenever opening it, it says that i need to download java virtual machine
and it leads me to Microsoft to download MS virtual machine
but after intalling it, the problem does not disappear.
Some people suggest that using opera, but it is not working, either!!
What is the problem? Does anyone know the solution?
Please reply me!!

Hi,
Internet explore cannot open some web site including yahoo game. whenever opening it, it says >that i need to download java virtual machine and it leads me to Microsoft to download MS virtual
machine but after intalling it, the problem does not disappear.Explorer not opening some web sites indicated that you are not able to open those sites which
do have applets in homepage,probabily you are able to download the applet but that cannot be
executed due to lack of environment(JVM).Although the Explored does have the inbuilt JVM but
I believe in the latest versions they are not providing.
i hope yours is not that case.The other alternative can be explorer getting corrupt or change
in the setting(which I believe you must not have changed)
See if the application comes on different machines explorer.

F12 tools cause Internet Explorer 11 to not open any sites; blank white page only

On Windows 8.1 with Internet Explorer 11, if I open the F12 tools and close IE without closing the F12 tools, the next time I open IE (for any site) it opens to a blank white page and nothing loads. The workaround is to open IE using the "iexplore.exe
-extoff" command > turn on the F12 tools > and then close the F12 tools using the 'X' from the F12 tools pane > and then close IE. After this, IE opens all pages fine. Has anyone else seen this behavior with the F12 tools? Is there possibly a
hotfix for this?

Hi,
On my test machine, I cannot reproduce this issue, this would be related to IE settings.
I would like to suggest you try reset IE or test without addons to check result.
1. Run IE with no add-ons. Click Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Internet Explorer (with no add-ons).
2. Try to reset IE to resolve the issue.
How to reset Internet Explorer settings
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737
Please understand that reset Internet Explorer to its default configuration. This step will also disable any add-ons, plug-ins, or toolbars that are installed.If this doesn't work, please provide us the error message in the Event Viewer for further research.
Hope it helps.

Disappointed!! I've been using Firefox since the start. Had a few problems but nothing insurmountable until now!! I'm using Internet Explorer now as FF constantly crashes and won't open anything but my home page. Someone help.

FF goes to my homepage and then stays there. Will not open bookmarks or any other sites at all.
When I close FF it closes the window but remains active. Can't even close the process in task manager and have to reboot PC.
This seems to have happened when FF upgraded to 6.0. since then I have uninstalled 6.0 and reverted to 4.0 in the hope that this will solve the problem but to no avail.
I'm now at the end of my tether and I'm no longer using FF. Don't want to use IE but I have no choice until this is resolved or decide which other browser will take FF's place. Anyone help?

HP Smart web printing is very useful web printing extension which is not compatible with any version of firefox till now but compatible with Internet Explorer any version. So Please do correction. Thanks

[There is a link below from where software can be downloaded and after installing this you will see that it is not compatible with any version of Mozilla Firefox of any Window version (7, XP).]
[http://ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software10/COL20395/dj-56929-3/HP_Smart_Web_Printing_v4.6.exe

It is up to HP to make that program compatible with Firefox.
That application last worked in Firefox 3.5, but HP was always very lax in updating it for a new version of Firefox. Usually they didn't bother to update it until like halfway through the "run" of a particular Firefox version. It worked for like 6 months and then a new version of Firefox was released, and it didn't work for like 6 months until HP got around to fixing it - then the cycle repeated.

Why can't I open or read my email in firefox. This problem started last week, and now I have to use internet explorer to read my emails.

On Oct. 28th problem started when I went to email preview page and could not open or read any emails. I have been using Firefox browser for several years and never had this problem before the above date. If I want to read emails, I have to use Internet Explorer now.

Why does my Web Handler work with Internet Explorer, but not with Firefox

I am trying to develop a web page that uses the Simile Timeline (http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/wiki/Timeline) with data from SQL Server.
In initial testing of my timeline I tested it with Example.xml, a static XML file in the correct format to be event data. I wrote the following in the appropriate place within mytimeline's Javascript: -
var WebHandler = "Example.xml"
tl.loadXML(WebHandler, function (xml, url) { eventSourceFamily.loadXML(xml, url) });
This worked fine with both Firefox and Internet Explorer. I then changed the assignment to
var WebHandler = "GDBTimeline.ashx?Type=Family&Userid=" + getControlValue("input", "hdnUser");
so that invoked a web handler that could look up the SQL database and return the XML that I wanted, and wrote this web handler.
This works perfectly with Internet Explorer, but with FireFox the timeline band is blank. Yet when I examine the http traffic with Fiddler2 (http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2/) I see that with either browser there is a response from URL
/GDB_pages/GDBTimeline.ashx?Type=Family&Userid=robertb
that returns the XML that it is supposed to.
I have previously used web handlers with Firefox before, with no problems. The Fiddler results conclusively show that the web handler is invoked, and returns the appropriate XML, and this XML is identical to the XML from the static test with Example.xml.
Where do I start looking for answers? I don't even know if this is a Simile problem, a Firefox problem, or an ASP.NET problem.
Thank you, Robert.

Problem solved. The issue: Content Type was not correct.
Visual Studio creates the web handler with dummy code like this: -
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
context.Response.Write("Hello World")
End Sub
I wrote a database query that set a string variable to the XML I wanted: -
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
Dim Outstring as string
' my logic to fill Outstring with XML
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
context.Response.Write(Outstring)
End Sub
This works with Internet Explorer. However it's not strictly correct: to make it work with other browsers as well,
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
should be
context.Response.ContentType = "text/xml"
It now works with IE, FF, and Chrome, and presumably all others.

Acrobat PDF reader for Internet Explorer may be unloading/unabling custom plugin

Hi,
My question is basically to understand what is happening in this situation so that I can find where is the problem and how to solve it.
We have used Acrobat 6.0 SDK to develop our custom plugin. This plugin is basically wrapper to few basic tools (note, stamp, text ) etc.. provided by Acrobat 6.0 SDK. We have also developed PDFViewer.dll to view PDF document within Internet Explorer. So when user load document within our website this PDFViewer loaded with the custom plugin and user can use those tools.
We are installing this plugin under <Acrobat X>/Plug_ins/<Company Name>/MyPlugin.API.
In our web site we are giving list of documents and when user click on a document it will load the PDFViewer and custom plugin. We are loading Acrobat.exe in advance so that we can load quickly. Now the problem happens when user open any other PDF in different tab or instance of Internet explorer. ?How?
Consider in a internet explorer user logged in our web site and then he/she can see let's say 10 documents. 1.pdf, 2.pdf, 3.pdf, etc...
Now when user select document 1.pdf we are loading that PDF in the IE within our PDFViewer with custom plugin. (Here I have seen that behind the scene Acrobat.exe is loaded in the processed using task manager)/ If at this time if user opens another instance of Internet explorer or another tab and open a PDF document it opens PDF in the standard Adobe Reader PDF viewer for Internet Explorer resides at (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX).
If at this time user goes back to our site and tried to work on 1.pdf our custom plugin works fine BUT if user opens any other document (let's say 2.pdf) the plug in stops working basically looks like it is not loaded.
This issue only happens if user opens a document in another internet tab or explorer instance and open PDF which resulted in to open Acrobat Activex for internet explorer. If user opens a PDF document out side of internet explorer it is not creating any problem because at that time ActiveX does not loaded.
So my guess is something is going on when ActiveX for PDF is get loaded into Internet Explorer.
I want to know more what is happening and why it is happening. Due to this behavior our web site users can't use any other web site which opens PDF documents because then they have to log off and log back in our web site.
Please we need immediate help.
I am open to provide more details with screen captures.
Thanks,
Twinkle

Hi,
Thanks.
So I want to make sure this is because with Acrobat 9 - the new way to deal with PDF's? Because as per my knowledge it was working fine with Acrobat 8.
Moreover, if I am understanding correctly and I have tested too, the order is important here, right? If I will load PDF in IE first and then I will work on my web site it is not creating problem but if I will launch my web site first and then open PDF within IE in different tab it is creating problem because they are using same interface and when AcroPDF instantiating overriding and failed to load plug_in
Here I have seen that both Acrobat.exe and AcroPDF.dll is using same Acrobat.dll pointing to same memory addresses and that's why problem is happening.
IT would be great if you can provide any other way to "hook" adobe because the bottom line I have to use AcroExch.App from SDK.
One last question, I have seen that if I am opening a PDF in Internet Explorer in a different tab (not in my web app) while pressing SHIFT key and the move to my web site and load different document it is working fine, so the question is what different is happening when we open PDF in IE with pressing SHIFT key and without pressing SHIFT key. IS AcroPDF.dll behaves differently while opening PDF with SHIFT key pressed?
Thanks for all your help.

Internet Explorer??? Why isn't it reading my site right??

For some reason internet explorer will not read my published site properly... can somebody help me with this issue please

That link is broken and I did not find what I'm looking for on "iWeb for Musicians". I'm looking for answers to questions like this:
1. Whenever I found or something similar I replaced it with or so.
MDS: Using Dreamweaver CS3 search and replace, I found 121 instances of above but can you be more specific regarding "or so"?
See screenshot line149.jpg. What's this highlighted line referring to in the design? Dreamweaver has highlighted every div or whatever?
2. I removed font-family: 'Georgia', serif; from css files so that lists don't show differently in different browsers. This one, along with the above, fixed the problem of lists taking up too much space in IE. IE was picking this font whereas other browsers were not.
MDS: For example
line 123 font-family: 'Georgia-Bold', 'Georgia', serif;
would be changed to?:
line 123 font-family: 'Georgia-Bold';
3. I either removed letter-spacing or decreased them in the css files, because not all browsers support that (Safari, for sure doesn't).
MDS: For example
line 9 letter-spacing: 0;
line 9 would be removed entirely?
MDS: Can you be explicit regarding decreased value? or comment on areas where it was decreased?
4. I replaced margin-bottom: 15px; with border-bottom:15px solid #72D2B4; margin-bottom:0; in the div id body_content of the pages (second div after body). That ensured margin at the bottom of the page on all browsers.
MDS: So first I would search for body_content
first of 15 items is
line 30
would be?
line 30
That's everything?

Works in applet viewer but not in internet explorer

I origionaly posted this on devshed. I got 55 views but no replies. It seems to be a common problem to which no one knows the answer. Surprise me :O)I'm sure this is a really common but there seems to be surprisinly litttle on the web about it.
I developed a game applet a while ago in applet viewer and am now thinking about putting it on my web site. However I have found that it doesn't work in internet explorer. I can browse other sites using Java fine. There is clearly just something about my applet that ie doesn't like.
Does anyone have any suggestions? What sort of things upset ie?
All help very much apreciated, you are very nice people
Flo.

There must be some thing that tells you it isn't working. You should tell us so we don't have to guess. Does the browser hang? Do you get an error? Did you try opening the Java Console to see if there were any messages? I am guessing that your code is using something that the security level of an Applet does not allow (but appletviewer does allow).
