CSS delay when page is opened

I have set up a site with an external style sheet, my client
is complaining about the split second when the page is viewed
before the style sheet kicks in, (an un-styled webpage) . Does
anyone know a way around this? They are demanding it to be amended,
I really don't know what else to say to them!!! Please help!
Anyone!

Doesn't matter. Say that this is a quite usual thing in the
WWW and that
the users don't really care about it, so why bother?
There are many things that you simply can't control, for
example the
order in which requested external resources like images and
stylesheets
finally arrive in the browser. If the CSS comes somewhat
delayed, the
browser might already render the naked HTML in order to show
something
to the user, which is a good thing. The same happens with
images. You
can't expect a browser and the users to wait until the entire
page with
all included resources has been completely downloaded before
it is
rendered.
So instead of trying to fix non-existing problems, focus on
the really
important stuff like usable, accessible content and
appropriate markup,
because these are the things that _do_ matter.

  • I started setting up a web page with iWeb. Auto play box is checked, but music will not play when page is opened.

    I started setting up a web page with IWeb.
    Several proplems so far:
    1) Auto Play box checked for music, but music does not start when page is opened.
    2) Can't get Quicktime "start/stop" slide to start and finish a section within a long piece of music (classical for example).  How does one work the slide bar to do this?

    Yes the audio file plays on the iWeb page when I click the play button.  I even made sure it played both without the “little boxes” that surround the icon (don’t know the technical name for those), and when I click the music icon without the little boxes.
    I did note that the iTunes window that appears when I open the Inspector is not highlighted until I click the music icon and those little boxes appear.  Then the Start/Stop, Auto Play,  Loop, and Show Movie Controller are highlighted —  and work properly.
    One other thing.  I see that the iWeb icon I am working from says “Domain copy.sites2.”  Does that have a bearing on anything?

  • Have numerous labels with designed borders as background to add name/ subject etc. "New" Pages only loads the names and seems to destroy all the designs when page is opened. Not happy!

    Have numerous (Avery A4 page format) pages of labels with designed borders as background  to add name/ subject (English - Mathematics etc)
    "New" Pages only loads the names and seems to destroy all background border designs when page is opened.
    The borders of each label show in thumbprint but when opened the border has gone. When the page is closed the borders no longer show in the thumbpint.
    When earlier version of Pages is selected to open the labels it says latest version of Pages is needed!
    What a mess up, it seems to be all too clever!!
    Not happy!

    That is what the App Store reviews and ratings are for.
    Let other potential "upgraders" know.
    Meanwhile use Pages '09 which should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.

  • 10g: reset sortcriteria on table when page is opened

    I have a master page and a detail page, and in the detail page the user is allowed to sort the table. When in the master page a new master is chosen the data for the detail page is changed, and sometimes the column that was sorted by is not even shown anymore (because the values will be empty for this particular master), but the table is still sorted according to the user's choice, and the sorting now looks random.
    I want to remove the sorting criteria, and sort according to the order by clause that was specified in the view object, and I want to do this when the page is opened.
    How?
    Wendy

    I was able to control sorting criteria in one of my apps by adding the following to the beforePhase() method override in a PhaseListener that I added to the app via the faces-config.xml file:
                if (arg0.getPhaseId() == PhaseId.INVOKE_APPLICATION) {
                    //  set default sort to priority column on af:table.
                    String lCurrentPage = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().getViewId();
                    if ("/app/mypage.jsp".equals(lCurrentPage)) {
                        CoreTable myTable = (CoreTable)EL.get("#{MyBackingBean.MyTable}");
                        List<SortCriterion> lDefaultSortList = new ArrayList<SortCriterion>();
                        lDefaultSortList.add(new SortCriterion("MyVOAttrName", true));
                        myTable .setSortCriteria(lDefaultSortList);
                }It's not EXACTLY what you are looking for, but studying it might get you closer to where you want to be.

  • Transaction details is not showing when page is opened from alert mail

    Dear all,
    Hope you are well enough.
    I am facing a problem that i have a search page and after searching i am opening the details page.
    There are many region for different type of data and all are showing accurately.
    But the problem is that i am also opening this DetailsPG.xml from workflow mail where a link is give of that particular transaction.
    When the page is opened then all sections are showing the data correctly except one region.
    But i have done the following task in ProcessRequest() method
    1.Get the transaction id.
    2.Execute the view for that particular transaction.
    3.Correctly mapped the attributes.
    Is there any checking needed that from which responsibility the page is opening?

    You need to have a JFrame to add your components to.
    For example, make your class extend JFrame and set your main panel the ContentPane (assuming that all your components have been added to this panel).
    public class SimpleSender extends JFRame {
    this.setContentPane(JPanel1);
    this.setVisible(true);
    }

  • Download link results in empty worksheet when page is opened

    Hi,
    Sometimes when a report page is opened, the download (.csv) link results in an empty excel worksheet. Users have to submit the page and then the data is downloaded. Why does it happen?
    Thanks.

  • Content does not display when page first opened

    Hi All;
    I have a contenta are/region which I have divided into multiple tabbed areas. I have two main tabs that divide the content into two major topics. Within each of these main areas I have added 4 to five tabs. One set for example holds a calendar, another tab a news release area and a third a content area for holding multiple folders of a department's documentation. The problem I am encountering is that when I first bring up the page all I see are the tabs and no matter what tab area is exposed the content within it is not displayed. For example, I start with the Calendar tab active (the calendar does not display). I then click on to say the document area, which displays all of its content's correctly. When I return to the calendar tab the calendar is displayed. My question... how can I ensure that the calendar (or any other tabbed area's content is displayed when the user first brings up the page?
    PS. This is a hot topic since I will be demoing my pages to my managers next week in an effort to convince them that Oracle Portal is the way to go.

    When I email the page to our server, the href links are missing.
    You email the page to the server?  What does that mean?

    All of the other pages on the website look correct. Thank you.
    Look at the source on that page.  There is virtually no styling on it....

    There is nothing telling the page which fonts to use, or which colors to use.  Are you sure you have uploaded the correct page?

  • A" to view warnings click or open a document "box cant be moved when pages are open

    This box has suddenly appeared and I cannot move it will get rid of it when I open Pages,
    It just comes with a warning;- to view mornings click or open a document?
    Any ideas thank you

    The same started happening with me today. It happens on opening Pages, so not a dialog box anywhere else as nothing is opening. I can go on to open a blank document, but the diaglog box is still on the top of the document, new message is "There are no warnings for this document", but I still can't get rid of the box

  • I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
    You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
    You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
    Menu > Format > Import Styles
    The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.

  • I have been sent a 'word document' in which are a series of boxes about thirty lines long to insure written text. When Pages opens the document it extends these to a whole A4 page how do I get it to retain the original layout

    You can't change the way Pages import .doc files.
    It was never written that it reproduce exactly the original one.
    From my point of view, as I refuse to give a cent to M...soft, the best way to deal with documents issued by their Office suite is to use the free libreOffice.

  • When trying to open a link in the page I am on and open it in a new Tab the browser stops responding.

    I open the browser and the Hime Page opens as expected. When I open a link to an item or article on the page in a new Tab Firefox stops responding and thye top line on the screen shows that to be the case. The only way to resolve the issue is to exit or close Firefox and start again. This has just started yesterday (Oct 12) as before that the process worked fine.
    When I open a new Tab and then type in a new web site it will open and allow access with no problem, provided I have not open a link as outlined in the first paragraph. I can open several tabs in this manner and Firefox works as expected. But if I try to link from any page and open in a new Tab i get the "not responding" situation again.
    After closing Firefox so I can restart it, the browser will open but the first screen will be a blank tab rather than my home page. I can open web sites and Firefox proceeds as expected as long as I do not try to open a link from within the page in a new Tab. I get the same "Not responding" situation.
    If I immediately close Firefox after it opens without my homepage and then restart it then my home page will open as expected.
    I have not made any changes to programs or setups in Firefox or on my computer in the immediate time before the problem started.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • I am having a silly problem with Keynote and Pages. When ever i open a file, it opens the same file twice ?

    When ever i open a file using key note or pages. The files opens up two times. I the ave to close one version of the file and only then can begin work.
    Could you please help me how to get rid of this ?

    try routine software maintenance:
    1 - shut down the Mac
    start up the Mac again with the shift key pressed, release when Mac logo appears, let the Mac boot up it will take longer as it will be repairing the software
    2 - Applications > utilities > disc utility > select the system drive > disc first aid > repair permissions
    reboot normally and see if that helped

  • I'm trying to open a PDF from Safari with iBooks, but when I choose "Open with ..." in Safari, only Pages and Dropbox show as options.  I'm running iOS 7.1.2 and iBooks 3.2.  Thanks for any ideas!

    On my iPad, I'm trying to open a PDF from Safari with iBooks, but when I choose "Open with ..." in Safari, only Pages and Dropbox show as options.  I'm running iOS 7.1.2 and iBooks 3.2.  I have rebooted the iPad and that did not help, and reinstalled iBooks, which also changed nothing.  Thanks for any ideas!

    Yup, it was uploaded to our school Wiki as a PDF, and Pages did open it.  I was then able to move it to iBooks, but I'd rather avoid the extra steps.

  • When I try to open a recent document I get the following message "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document."  I have downloaded version Pages version 5.2.2 and the app store confirms this, but my Pages About reports that I am using 4.3

    Here is the solution that I received from the chat line.
    When you update applications like Pages it usually keeps both versions on the computer. So what most likely happened is it didn’t put the new version on your dock. So to fix this, open a finder window. And go into applications which should be listed on the left. Scroll down and you will see Pages listed in here. And the icon should look different. You can drag that icon down onto your dock.Open that and you then can access your documents
