Animation not loading in Internet Explorer

Hi,
Hope someone can help me here, I have created a flash intro
for a site I have designed. This is my first experiance with Flash
and it was very painless, however I have a problem with it loading
in Internet Explorer.
The animation can be seen here
www.danieldean.biz and if you
load it in Firefox it works almost instantly, but IE just sits at a
load screen and never runs.
I managed to find the fix for ActiveX problems but although
you no longer have to click to activate it, the animation still
won't load. Can anyone help? I'm at a loss to know what to
try.

code for director instead of flash and not realised). And
make sure you
START with a working html file (like that produced by
SWiSHmax).
I'm still confused, I don't understand what I'm supposed to
put where it says <object... etc etc </object>. I tried
putting the following in:
<script
type="text/javascript">startIeFix();</script>
<object
classid="clsid:166B1BCA-3F9C-11CF-8075-444553540000" codebase="
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/director/sw.cab#version=8,5,0,0"
width="750" height="400">
<param name="src" value="dean.swf">
<embed src="dean.swf" pluginspage="
http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/"
width="750" height="400">
</embed>
</object>

<script
type="text/javascript">endIeFix();</script>
But it still doesn't load in IE. Also, what is this about
director? SWiSHmax has never made any html for me, just an .swf
file, that's what I'm trying to embed in the page. Isn't there just
some simple code I can use to put "dean.swf" on the page and play
it? I feel like I'm running round in circles and not getting
anywhere at the moment.
Would it be possible for someone to be kind enough to write
the short section of code I need to get my "dean.swf" file to load
properly? It's making my brain hurt now :-(

Flash animation not viewing in Internet Explorer

I have built a website in iweb using Slideshowpro and Vertical Moon products, everything views as it has been built in Safari and Firefox, in Internet Explorer the text animations do not view at all, but the rest does OK. In opera all views OK with the exception of the text which I used transparent tag, it does not view transparent, but as a block
This is very frustrating has anyone else had this problem, and hw do you fix it
Thank you

Well, I don't really think they do. It is the PC world and ultimately Internet Explorer that are well behind the times with this technology. Internet Explorer must be the worst browser around and has been for sometime - little wonder that Bill Gates used to throw in a free copy with every PC.
It is my belief that the PC industry need to update. In the meantime, what you can do is ensure that the PC users have javascript enabled on the PC's and also suggest that they go and download a copy of either Firefox for PC or a copy of Safari for PC. Add that on your site and let them know that it is best viewed with a copy of Firefox or Safari and have the clickable links on your site so that they can go there.
I don't think it is Apple's problem to address IE - Apple technology is ahead of this. This is for the PC industry to do and to catch up - perhaps they need to ensure they come up with something better than IE and Vista, which has been a bit of a disaster.

My photo albums do not load in Internet Explorer

Is there many compatibility issues between Explorer (IE) and iWeb? The photo albums I created in iWeb'09 do not load in IE but it worked fine in Safari and Firefox. How do I resolve this issue? Any clue would be most appreciated.
Karim

What version of IE are you using to view the site? If it's the last Mac version then dump it as it's so old and obsolete it is less than worthless. If you're using a PC with IE then make sure you've got the latest version. See Roddy's site on making iWeb sites as compatible with IE as possible: http://www.iwebformusicians.com/WebMusic/iWebandInternetExplorer.html
Here's a post by Roddy with links to areas of his site that are relevant: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2021995&tstart=0

Topics not loading in Internet Explorer 10

Hello all,
I'm updating a help project in Robohelp 10. This is an existing project i had in Robohelp 10/Framemaker 11. I am simply updating my Frame content and regenerating (the FM project is linked). My company recently upgraded my browser to Internet Explorer 10.0.9200.17028.
I am noticing that some topics do not appear now (they are blank). This is a merged helpset (about 10 helpsets that are merged). I am running the helpset locally on my PC.
I've tried applying the IE 10 patch for RH10 and regenerating but this did not help. I am using RH10.0.1.292.
Everything looks fine in Firefox.
I am releasing this week and am not sure what else to try.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any help.

No you will not. 10.0.1 is a proper patch. The other "patch" does not have a number and does not show.
I did say a simple project to test but I had not looked back to see the problem is only with some topics. The patch and fix issues would apply to all topics.
The first thing I would do now is check it is always the same topics that have this problem. Then I would create a new project and import just the Fm file with those topics to see if they are the same there. It doesn't have to be a merge so it should only take a few minutes.

BC Provided javascript not loading in Internet Explorer

I'm trying to create a web app form that anonymous users can use. I found the snippet of code (below) in the BC Resources:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
jQuery.post('/ZoneProcess.aspx?ZoneID=-1', { Username: 'Anonymous', Password: 'User' });
</script>
This works great in all browsers BUT Internet Explorer (go figure). All other JS is loading and working fine, but when a user attempts to submit the web app customer input form, it goes to the "you need to log in to the secure zone" screen.
Anyone see any syntax problem in the JS - am I missing something? I there a work around? On a tight deadline - I'd appreciate any help.
(I've created the anonymous user, and the user/pass are correct in the code - again, it's working in everything but IE)

Liam - of course, and thank you:
http://bankplusfb.businesscatalyst.com/bp_pen_contest.html
To interact with that one portion, you'll need to open the toggle section, and fill out the form to upload an image.
Again, it appears to be an IE only problem and only the submission process seems to be breaking. The toggle function, prettyphoto etc. all seems to be acting correctly. Even in EI.
Thanks for your help!

Does it matter whether you use www? Will the sign-in link open: https://signup.netflix.com/#do-login
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
1. Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server. Any difference? If not...
2. Clear Firefox's Cache Completely
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
3. If needed, remove the site's cookies in this dialog
While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

My chosen home page wont load it loads on internet explorer not firefox i tried the drag it to the little house it did not work it worked before i lost it three days ago

my chosen home page wont load it loads on internet explorer but not firefox I tried the drag it to the little houes by the address bar but it still wont load it was working but stopped three days ago

I upgraded my Firefox and now when I open, either from a shortcut on my desk top or the Firefox icon all I get is a blank page with no address but about:blank. I can then open a page such as my mail or home page from a bookmark, nothing from the desktop will open in any thing other than the blank page. Also my right click options only work once and a while. Things like saving a photo or going back just don't work. All sorts of little glitches, I find them very frustrating and am considering going back to IE even though I don't like it much. All my saved pass words are gone too.

Rob,
Many thanks for your reply. It is appreciated greatly. I have added text against each of the points that you raise.
troubleshooting Addons is somewhat complex.....as from this side we do not know which addon may be causing the problem, so the
only recourse is to disable the types of addons that commonly cause problems in IE (for security and usablility reasons some older addons that you may have used previously with IE8/XP are no longer compatible with newer versions of IE that you are now using)....
The following instructions will stop your Toolbar and Browser Helper addons from loading in IE.
Start>Control Panel>Internet Options>Advanced tab,
uncheck "enable third-party browser extensions".
close any open IE windows and restart IE for the changes to take effect.
[GotaQ: Yes, did this but the problem then is that IE won’t open for me. There is no icon in the start menu or task bar
and routes such as using a command prompt or ‘run’ instruction don’t work. When I try this I get a window on screen that flickers for a bit and then disappears.]
Alternatively, your problem with keyboard input is most likely being caused by a form filling addon or a finger print reader
addon? Note: some addons like the Google toolbar have multiple features like form filling, you can disable the GTB's form filling features from its settings dialog (click the 'spanner' icon on the toolbar)
Use Tools>Manage Addons>Show all addons to locate any such addons and use the Addons Manager to disable them. (close and
reopen any open IE windows for the full changes to take effect).
[GotaQ: I tried disabling all of the add-ons in Google Chrome and the key-stroke mapping problem persisted, unfortunately!]

Page not displaying in Internet Explorer

Hello all, having trouble getting one page on my site to load via internet explorer. Sometimes it displays only the background image, and sometimes it will not display at all.
Hoping someone can take a look at it and maybe see what's off? Here is the 1 page - www.birchmountainearthworks.com/landscapes/landscapes.html
Thanks if anyone can help!

That's a nice page. Too bad it's built with such antique methods.
Anyhow, I'd make the following changes:
1. Move "</head>" so that it's below the embedded styles and just above "<body>" where it should be.
2. Move the Google Analytics code so that it's below "</body>".
That should get you going in IE.
And by the way, you would definitely want to add an appropriate doctype to the page.

Lessons: Extend step 5 of 7 not working on Internet Explorer 11

Hello I using Edge Animation CC Trial, I starting to learn directly from application. Everything is good until I found out Lesson: Extend step 5 of 7 not working on Internet Explorer 11 (Lasted version on Windows 8.1). The Playback/Stop trigger not work for Stage. But when I try use Chrome, it working well.

Oh and just to show how things look like with the problem, it's like this:
And this is what it's supposed to look like:
So yeah, the whole space just turns empty - I can still click on blank spaces and it leads me to the appropriate links (though I have no clue what links I am actually clicking on in IE9, it only shows up for google chrome
I'm looking forward to constructive replies~ Hopefully someone would see this soon

AOL Broadband, will connect to laptop, but not connect to internet explorer. WRT54GS v.6

I can connect to my wireless network via my laptop, but not to internet explorer. We have changed every setting imaginable and re-set the modem, router many times. We Ip configed, did ping tests, installed and re-installed the card in the laptop. Done all this 4 times with the tech support from Linksys. Finally, I realized it must the wireless router and/or modem configuration. (The laptop works on every other network in town except ours, and has not security settings enabled).
I have been on customer service calls for 2 weeks, with AOL and linksys and nothing seems to be helping me. I have 2 wireless routers (thought the first was bad, so bought another brand new), and just had a brand new modem installed. Basically, I have brand new equipment.
The laptop has no security settings and connect to any wireless network in town. It finds the connection to my WRT54GS v.6, but will not connect via internet explorer.
I want to uninstall and re-install the router. How do I uninstall the router? (I have instruction for re-installation). Also AOL rep told me, to make sure I configure the router to a certain port range. Any ideas as to how to do this?
Anyone have problems with AOL high speed and linksys router? Has the high speed cable cord coming out of the wall, not ethernet or DSL.
We have changed the settings in http://192.168.1.1 till I am blue in the face. None of the channels worked, security didn't work, adding the ip address manually to the laptop didn't work. I am getting no error messages. Am trying to get this wireless modem working because I need it. Should have come to this forum first!

hi..if you want to uninstall the router...the only thing you need to do is hold the reset button down for 30 seconds...
i m a bit confused here as to why the ISP techs asked you to forward ports on the router...port forwarding is needed for a specific application or a device that is behind the router....
the mentioned ports are for AOL messenger ( AIM )....and has nothing to do with the modem...anyways , let us work out together on this issue...carry out the steps i mention and you can revert back with the results and your success rate...
1) connect the computer to the modem and check what ip address you have on the computer ??
2) go to start -> control panel -> network connections ->
let me know what other icons you have besides Local Area Connection and Wireless Network Connection..
3)connect the computer to the router and the router to the modem...
access the router using http://192.168.1.1 .. let the internet connection type be on DHCP....check the ip address on the status page of the router ui...
4) if it is 0.0.0.0 , go to setup tab and go to mac address clone subtab , enable it and hit clone..save the settings and do a power cycle...
5) check whether you have the ip address...if you have the same ip as coming off of the modem..u should be online and if still 0.0.0.0 , then select PPPoE for the internet connection type and enter the username and password...check whether the ip address comes up....if still negative, ensure that the modem is in bridge mode...
6)if the ip address comes up as 192.168.1.x , change the local ip add of the router to 192.168.2.1 and do a power cycle..
let me know for any help !!!

IWeb Page Navigational Links not working with Internet Explorer 7

I'm hoping someone can help me out here? My wife created her 1st website using iWeb. I am testing the sites functionality before we publish it. All the pages and links work fine on Firefox and Safari for windows. However, the page navigational links are not working on Internet Explorer 7. All I see is a dot to the left side of where the page links should be. When I start the site in IE7 I get an Active X script warning and I am asked if I want to allow the script to run; to which I reply yes. After I allow the Active X script the dot to the left side of where the page links should be disappears, but the links do not appear.
Is there anyway to resolve this? Most of the members of her club have Windows based PCs and are using IE7.

Yes, Javascript is running on IE7 and other java script applets appear to be working with the exception of the Navbar script.
It would be great if my wife's friends used a "real" browser, unfortunately 70% of the people on the web use IE7, so this is a real concern if we can't get this to work. I'v seen other iWeb site on IE7 that seem to function fine, so I'm not sure what the issue is here.
