Background/ broweser fill not showing up in preview

In the website I am currenlt building I tried adding a picture as the browser fill, it shows the result in the workspace but when I press preview or even preview in browser the background does not show up it is just the default grey. Even if I take the picture down and try to simply change it to a color, it wont change in the preview just stays grey. I need to add a new page and paste all I have into it to be able to change backgrounds again, but I can only do colors no images otherwise I run into the same issue. I have no idea what to do, a few images do work but a lot of them dont and I don't know why, I tried .psd .jpeg .png and sizes from 150kb to 5mb, still can't figure out what the problem is.
PS. I have the same issue on both my laptop and desktop (they even run different operating systems, Win7 and Win8) I just don't get it, nor what I can do.
Edit: I just so happen to realize something 7 minutes after posting this while having the problem for 2 days, I have a large HTML element on the page. The issue occurs only when it is on the page, (it is basically a PDF that got converted into HTML). Still not sure how to fix the issue though

They will not re-align if I drag the page smaller.
That's because you are using a combination of AP divs and tables. AP divs are taken out of the flow of the page and they stay constant depending on their co-ordinates.
I've noticed that you use AP divs exclusively and I'm afraid it's not the optimum way to lay out a page... here's why:
http://apptools.com/examples/pagelayout101.php
The pages I've seen can easily be created using plain old styled divs - they don't have to be absolutely positioned at all.
You may want to check out the valildation errors - on this page;
.http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fcosmicthings.com%2F
Fixing those errors may very solve the problem.
Put your other pages through the validator and see what needs fixing:
HTML Validator - http://validator.w3.org
CSS Validator - http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
Fix the validation errors and see where your page is at that point..

Cell background colors are not showing in preview - help? - DW4

Hi,
I created a horizontal table for my menu bar, and gave each cell a different color by creating a separate class for each with background image - image is a block of color created in Photoshop. In design mode they look they way I want, but in preview (Safari) the colors don't show up at all - the whole area is gray, and all I see is the text for each cell. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Alternatively, is there a better way I can set this up to have different colors for each button?
Thank you!

Here is the HTML code, and the CSS code for the menu bar follows:
     ul.MenuBarHorizontal
></style><style type="text/css"><!body {     background-color: #FFF;     font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;}-->
    h1.
     ul.MenuBarVertical

I changed my browser fill and the update does not show in the preview mode

I changed my browser fill and the update does not show in the preview mode. I saved and restarted muse but the problem is still there. Any thing else I can do? Could it be something that changed in the file?

Hello,
What did you put in the "browser fill" area, an image or a color? WIth gradient or with solid color? Also, does it show fine if you "Preview in Browser"?
Screenshots showing the Browser fill section (like this: http://screencast.com/t/RHqdVPP4) and the display in Preview mode would also be helpful.
Cheers

I am trying to uninstall a program that is running in the background but does not show when I force quit. How do I remove it?

How do I uninstall a program that is running in the background but does not show in Force Quit?

Open Activity Monitor and look for the program. Select it and Quit or Force quit it from within Acitiviy Monitor.
Search for the application with Find Any File as it can search areas that Spotlight can't, like invisible folders, system folders and packages. You can drag the app and any associated files from the search result window to the Trash bin in the Dock.

Tax Condition ZSRT not showing in Print Preview and Tax Register

Dear Friends
while we making Purchase Order the Tax condition not showing while print preview. also not showing in Tax Register.
Tax Register we developed.
any hops
Rajesh G

Dear,
ZSRT is a customised condition which you have created. So to bring that condition in print preview you have to talk to your ABAPER , so that he can incorporate this condition type to his customised print preview program. If your tax register is also customised then again you have to communicate to the ABAPER.

Adobe Flash 11.9.900.152: objects not showing in print preview and not printing

When I select print from Adobe Flash 11.9.900.152, objects are not showing in print preview and not printing on the printer. I have tried to print from both MS Internet Explorer and Google Chrome--neither work.
I am using:
Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pak 1
Internet Explorer 10.0.9200.16618
or
Google Chrome 31.0.1650.57 m
How do I resolve this issue?

What is it you're trying to print?

I'm trying to export a file as .dwg for Autocad but it's not showing the dwg preview and it appears to be saving as code (lots of gobbledegook when reopening the file). I'm on OS 10.5.8. Never had a problem with this before. What am I missing? Any idea

First be sure login and password are OK. Sometimes the address starts wit "http://..." and sometime starts with "ftp://...". Try both normal FTP access and Scure FTP access (SFTP). At the end, contact the site's provider.

Video will not show in the preview window

I am using iMovie 08 and have some video that I pulled into iMovie using my iSight. Whenever I am trying to preview my movie it will not show in the preview window. I did a software update for iMovie and the issue is still happening. Any ideas??

Although the same not preview-able iMovie event played perfectly fine when transferred to a different mac running perian and divx, disabling Perian solved the issue on my macbook, too!
Thanks for the tip!
I still wonder why some clips preview and some don't (with perian running)...

I colored the spry menu, but it's not showing up in preview.

I changed the color of my spry menu from beige to black. It shows up on my work page, but when I try to preview it, it's as if I had never changed the color. I also tried going to the page through Firefox, but it's not showing up there either. The code says the background of the menu is #000, One the design panels it says the background color is #000 as well. Can someone tell me what I'm missing that is making the spry menu stay at the default color?

Not a good option unfortunately.
"allow multiple consecutive spaces" is an old option in DW which should be discontinued. It simply inserts multiple non-breaking spaces when you press the spacebar.
It's ugly, and unpredictable since it depends on font sizes, browser text sizing etc.
Better to use CSS

Background pictures do not show up on Singsnap when I open a song to listen to.

When I click on a song to listen to on the site "Singsnap" some of the users have put pretty background pictures on their site but all I see is plain white, the background does not show up....It also does not show up on IE but it shows up beautifully on Google Chrome......Is there some setting I have disabled or what......The HTML is enabled...

See:
* [[Website colors are wrong]]
* [[Websites look wrong]]
* [[Images or animations do not show]]
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Why are line graphics not showing up in Preview Mode when they show in Normal view mode?

I am using CS4, I've used InDesign for 4 years. I can not figure out why this is happening...
From the Tools panel, I am using the line and circle tools. Drawing lines (arrows) and circles on my document, with a stroke weight of 1. The lines are the top item on my page, the last thing I draw. I draw lines that would go over not only other graphics, but over text as well.
Problem is that they only show up in Normal view, not Preview view. Hence, I don't think they will show up on the final document.
I've used these tools often, and the lines not showing is a new problem. Can anyone shed some light on why this might be happening?
Thanks, Louise

I looked and yes "nonprinting" was ticked in the Attributes panel. THANK YOU :-)
I knew there had to be a simple solution and I was so frustrated it was eluding me.
Thanks again.

Images not showing up in preview

I have a web site that I'm working on that has a simple
problem (I'm sure) but it is frustrating. The web site is in it's
own folder on the server named public_html. The thing is, the pages
look fine when I view them in Dreamweaver and when I upload them to
the server but when I try to preview view them locally some of the
images don't show up. Some of the image sources have a forward
slash (/) at the begining. These are the images that don't show up.
Please help! This is driving me nuts!
Thanks again.

Post a link to a page that is not showing the desired images,
please.

Image background in table NOT showing up! ffs

I am not kidding, but I have seriously spent HOURSSSSSSS
trying to figure out why the freakin picture will not show up.
It’s really irritating, and there’s NO reason why it
shouldn’t show up. I made my template in photoshop and slice
it all up. I save it. Then I save the template as a WEB. The thing
saves all the images and creates an editable site.
So I then go into dreamweaver to load up the site.
Everything’s is fine. I have ONE image which is being a pain
to me because everytime I delete it and replace that image as the
background so that I can type in it, the stupid image doesn’t
appear.
The image I’m trying to get to show up is the GOLD
navigation bar image. PLEASE PLEASE Help. It’s for a project
in my webpage design class and I really need help, thanks.

There are several issues here, not the least of which is that
you are trying to create a web page with a program designed to
create and edit images, then trying to make it work in a program
designed to create web pages.
The proper approach is create your web page in Dreamweaver
(or notepad or what ever you like) then augment it with images
processed in Photoshop (or Fireworks, etc) optimized for the web.
Next, there are several things that could be causing your
problem, but what we really need to see here is a url to your site
so we can examine the code and tell you what might be causing you
trouble. Pictures of the problem in this case are NOT worth a
thousand words.
Please post the address to your site and I’m sure
someone will post the solution pretty quickly.

PDF file not showing correctly in Preview or other apps

Hi,
I've trying to find an answer to my question for some time now on the internet, but couldn't find it anywhere. When I open a pdf file from someone who created it using Windows diagrams that are supposed to be Matrices are not showing properly. Most probably the matrices were created using the equation builder in MOffice.
<-- this is supposed to be a matrix
There is also a problem with showing symbols like subscripted or superscripted letters (Arrows represent superscripted or subscripted letters, either up or down):
And for some reason, when I try to quicklook the file, some pages are displayed incorrectly - only showing a quarter of the page:
Any help on this? Is there some sort of an update to solve this problem, or should I download additional fonts??
I am using a Macbook Alu from 2008 with OS X Maverick installed - all latest updates are installed.. (However the same problem appeared when using an iPad)
Thanks a lot i advance!

Hi Carolyn,
I looked at your file and it seems the problem is with the resolution. The design is great but the resolution was too low.
Fortunately your Apple Smart Object was high resolution so I was able to increase the resolution of the file as it is. You will need to replace the Bar Code and possibly the little flower on the back cover with high res versions.
In the future you need to start with the document being sized right and the resolution at 300 ppi. Make sure your graphics are high resolution from the start as well. You can't regain resolution that was left out, although using High Resolution Smart Objects can give you the the latitude you need to size back up.
After I sent the file I looked closely at the font. The one font you used does have zaggies but it's supposed to. Bradley Hand ITC TT is kind of a rough font around the edges by design. If this is what seems to be the problem, you will need to change to another font. Still, the file needed to be higher resolution.
I sent one back to you in high res. All you need to do is replace the bar code and the little flower with high res version. The apple graphic smart object was high enough.

Web App not showing in Portal Preview

We are running two web apps (Wordpress sites zebraWP and zms) under our subscription at Azure. They both show under the old management portal but only one shows in the new portal. Reading through a previous question, I went to resources.azure.com and
the site (zebraWP) that is not showing shows Error: 'Resource not found'
The website otherwise appears to function normally.
I am not sure how to correct this. I have a nice example of what should be there from the other site but am reluctant to try to edit anything myself.

You can work around by using resources.azure.com to create the site with the same name (zebraWP). Make sure you put the matching location and serverFarm with the origin site. For instance, location "West US" and serverFarmName
"DefaultServcerFarm". See if it helps.
