CSS not displaying properly in Firefox

My new CSS layout looks beautiful in IE7 (weird), however, it
is not rendering properly in Firefox. I always do research before
posting here, but I'm completely helpless now. I'm very new to CSS,
this is my first page I've layed on using this language. Pretty
much none of the top margins are working, and my faux column image
isn't displaying. I'll attach the HTML and the CSS and see if
someone can point out what is wrong with Firefox.

I'm seeing problems in FF3, Safari 3.1, and IE6. Flash code
and missing alt
tags on images won't hurt you, but some of the other
validation errors could
be effecting your layout.

In addition, you've got problems with those png images and
alpha-transparency. They do not render well in IE6 without
some sort of png
fix JavaScript. Given that many people still use IE6, you
might want to
switch to jpgs for backgrounds.

Animation not displaying properly in Firefox

My animation not displaying properly in Firefox. I have searched this forum and others but am only able to find outdated solutions (such as updating to the latest release of Animate). I am on the most current versions of Animate and Firefox and still having problems. Does anyone know of a solution to this, or can direct me to a discussion that already covers it?
An interesting thing to note is that only the center tree is acting differently, though the commands for each seem to be the same. Also the small mountains are fine, but not Mt Rainier.
Here is my test page:

Thanks!

In case anyone else runs into this issue, I was able to resolve it by rebuilding those portions of the animation.

TDF not displaying properly in Firefox 4

Hi, just an FYI to the TDF team...the web version is not displaying properly in Firefox 4.0.1. The main browser window (for lack of a better description) is slightly off-set maybe 10 - 15 pixels down and to the right. Because of this it covers up some of the TDF navigation tabs.

In case anyone else runs into this issue, I was able to resolve it by rebuilding those portions of the animation.

Upgrade to ver 1.6 pages not displayed properly in Firefox

Hi,
I upgraded HTML DB to Ver. 1.6 today. The installation was okay, did not raise any errors, but when I use Firefox to log on to HTML DB, the pages are not displayed properly. IE is able to resolve the pages correctly.
Do I need to get a plug-in for Firefox? Ver. 1.5 was working perfectly with Firefox.
TIA

My design view won't display properly in Mozilla or IE. The images show. The CSS (core and flow) are found according to the access logs. But it doesn't display nicely at all. This was an upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6. 1.5 looked fine. My old applications from 1.5 display properly.

Why Is Dreamweaver CS4 Tooltips Not Displaying Properly in Firefox?

Hello,
I used tooltips to provide answers to questions on my "Frequently Asked Questions" page (there are 19 questions).
In IE, the pop up displays in the default setting as each question is moused over.
However, in Firefox, the pop up window stays at the top of the screen. So by time you mouse over question 5, the top half of the pop up is at the top of the page and cannot been seen. As you go further down the page, the pop up cannot be seen at all because it stays at the top of the page.
I would really appreciate any advice on how to make the tooltips display properly in Firefox. Thanks, Theresa

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
Do I need to publish the site before these kind of problems can be resolved?
It's usually the quickest way to get an accurate answer.
You're describing page behaviour which doesn't have an obvious cause since it depends on your code syntax and structure. If we can see what's going on, we can probably isolate the issue.
Showing is always better than telling.

Wordpress theme not displaying properly in Firefox, but shows well in Safari and Chrome

Hi!
I have a Wordpress site that i'm using a custom theme with. Starting yesterday, my website's layout is shifted around and very distorted when viewing in Firefox, but it's perfectly fine in Chrome and Safari.
I tried deactivating the plugins, didn't help. I checked the site in multiple computers, same issue on all of them.
When checking on Windows PC, only Chrome displays the site properly, both firefox and IE are giving the "Exploit Black Hole" warning. I checked the site with URLVoid and VirusTotal, it came up clean.
Here's the link: http://selektorstyle.com
At this moment, i have no idea what to do, so any help is much appreciated!
Thank you.

Can you attach a screenshot?
*http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
If you are not on Windows then instead of "Tools > Options" use:
*Linux: "Edit > Preferences"
*Mac: "Firefox > Preferences"
*Windows: "Firefox > Options" or "Tools > Options"
<i>Press F10 if the menu bar is hidden on Windows and Linux</i>
Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer(s).<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.<br /><br />

Facebook Apps do not display properly in Firefox

Certain Facebook apps don't properly display in Firefox.
Some forms or articles (content) are cut off and don't diplay all fields or buttons or text,

These same Facebook pages display properly in Safari 5.1.1

That content is in a not scrollable iframe.<br />
The height of that frame is probably set via JavaScript to the correct height after that iframe has loaded and that didn't seem to have happened in your case and you only get the default height of about 600px.<br />
You can try to right click in that frame: This Frame > Open Frame in New Tab

I suspect the issue is with the CSS itself. The CSS displays correctly in the Design view of the topic in RH10, but does not display correctly if I view the topic using the CTRL+W command from within RoboHelp, and does not display correctly in the compiled project when viewed in Chrome or FireFox. Any ideas? Thanks!

If I have to guess, I would say it has to do with the name of the style.
Your HTML probably uses lower case while your selector in the CSS starts
with a capital letter.
Try the following selector:
p.note,
p.Note {
That should solve it.
Kind regards,

Png files referenced in css not displaying in Chrome & Firefox after after PUT

I'm new to dreamweaver but I've got a techy / software background so feel free to speak geek.
I've been tasked to create a simple splash screen for an existing intrenal website for my company.
I've been able to put page together in DW and sucessfully preview in Chrome, Firefox, & IE. After I PUT files on the webserver (under an existing virtual directory in IIS) I'm bumping into a problem where I'm not able to see a the three png files I've got embedded into the .css sytle sheet fro the header, container, and footer sections. Here's a look at the html & css for the page. Any recommendations on how I could code this better or fix the problem? Your help will be very much appreciated.

CSS for images coded on the Web page itself is pathed relative to that Web page. CSS for images used by the external CSS file is pathed relative to the CSS file location.
If this is the link to the css file from the Web page... go to "CognosSplashScreen" subfolder and get the "oneColFixCtrHdr.css"
<link href="/CognosSplashScreen/oneColFixCtrHdr.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
.... and you don't need the leading "/" by the way.
then relative to that css file, which is already in the "CognosSplashScreen" subfolder, the path to the "HeaderBubbles_02.png" is just
background-image: url(HeaderBubbles_02.png);
not:
background-image: url(/CognosSplashScreen/HeaderBubbles_02.png);
and so forth for other image paths.

Photos do not display properly in Firefox

I am having a problem that my photos are "blowing up" when viewed in Foxfire. If I make the photos small enough to not do that in Foxfire, they are really small when viewed in Chrome and IE. I'm using the Weaver II themes in all of these but discovered that even my personal site isn't doing very well either. I've searched online for a fix but haven't been able to find anything that will work. there are only three photos in each row on the actuall gallery pages. I had to make the "Gallery" page photos small enough to fit across on FireFox, which is okay because they are static. The other pages are three across but even at that, they are too large in Firefox to show all three photos across. IE isn't doing a great job either. Here's a link to one of the gallery pages:
http://gayleweisfield.com/new/?page_id=107
I have another site where there are only two photos across and the photos blow up even larger and end up running vertical down the page which doesn't allow all the photos and the text to show. That site I can deal with since the photos are static although I would like to know what it is about the theme or Firefox that is causing the problem.

I think the problem is that the NextGen Gallery plugin is set to use inflexible table cells for layout, rather than letting the images snug up next to one another.
''Digression:'' To see how the columns are always as wide as the widest image, you could run a small script to add borders. This isn't strictly necessary, but in case you're curious, you can add a new style rule to the page (locally, just until you reload it) as follows.
(1) With your page displayed, open Firefox's Web Console by pressing Ctrl+Shift+k
(2) Next to the caret (">") paste this long line of script code and then press Enter to run it:
var s=document.createElement("style"); s.type="text/css"; s.appendChild(document.createTextNode("td{border:1px dotted yellow !important;}")); document.body.appendChild(s);
Okay, back on point. Does the NextGen Gallery plugin let you choose a different layout that has a better chance of fitting in the available space?
Another option would be to add a horizontal scroll bar, but people generally don't like horizontal scrollbars, so I think that would be a last resort.

SWF not displaying properly in FireFox and IE 7 & 8

I am working on a site that is staging right now. I have a gallery page that displays a Flash .swf file. It loads properly in all browsers, except only about 1/3 of the viewer shows up on the page in FireFox and IE 7 & 8. It displays perfect in Safari and older versions of IE. Is anyone familar with this issue? Can someone offer any suggestions? Thanks in advace.

What version of Flash? What does the html page that holds the .swf look like? Can you share a URL where this file sits?

Please help: my website does not display properly in firefox

(note) everything works fine clientside
I'm totally new here but I really really need help debugging
my website. The problem is I have a flash file the loads an xml
file to display pictures. Basicallly a gallery. It works in IE but
not Firefox and I can't understand why.
here is the offending pages
3dart Page |
Print Page
as you can see they display fine in IE. try in mozilla
firefox and the server just hangs. here is the actionscript from
the .fla:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];
description = [];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image
= xmlNode.childNodes.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
description
= xmlNode.childNodes.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
firstImage();
} else {
content = "file not loaded!";
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("freelance.xml");
listen = new Object();
listen.onKeyDown = function() {
if (Key.getCode() == Key.LEFT) {
prevImage();
} else if (Key.getCode() == Key.RIGHT) {
nextImage();
Key.addListener(listen);
previous_btn.onRelease = function() {
prevImage();
next_btn.onRelease = function() {
nextImage();
p = 0;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
filesize = picture.getBytesTotal();
loaded = picture.getBytesLoaded();
preloader._visible = true;
if (loaded != filesize) {
preloader.preload_bar._xscale = 100*loaded/filesize;
} else {
preloader._visible = false;
if (picture._alpha<100) {
picture._alpha += 10;
function nextImage() {
if (p<(total-1)) {
p++;
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
picture_num();
function prevImage() {
if (p>0) {
p--;
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
picture_num();
function firstImage() {
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[0], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[0];
picture_num();
function picture_num() {
current_pos = p+1;
pos_txt.text = current_pos+" / "+total;
stop();
if anyone would help me debug this I would really appreciate
this, I'm not good with code. I'll give you the source files to
look at if need be, i'm desperate! thanks

Can you attach some [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot screenshots] for comparison to show what you mean?
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).

Google maps is not displaying properly on firefox

I am in the process of building a website for a client and have included a google map on the contact page. The map displays correctly in ie, safari, opera, and chrome, but on firefox the map is way out of position on the page. Firefox seems to be ignoring the existence of the map in the flow of the page and the map is appearing to the left of the rest of the page content. Here is a link to the problem page, http://pennsylvania-hill.com/?page_id=6. The map is supposed to appear in a 980 x 320 space below the navigation bar and above the addresses and contact form. The only solution I can come up with is a firefox hack in the css. I'm hoping for a better solution.
Thanks,
Greg
