Disappearing List BG problem in IE - white block instead of transparent

Hi all,
I have a frustrating Disappearing List Background issue... only in IE, all other browsers fine...
PROBLEM: the drop down item 'Three Lounge' bar under 'Bars' should have a transparent background, but instead appears with a white block with the word 'false' underneath.
I've tried some other code snippets, unsuccessfully, that messed up the whole navigation... I'm not an expert and have exhausted my avenues!
The page: http://www.jrgd.com.au/clients/bar333/bar333-cocktail-lounge.html
The css: http://www.jrgd.com.au/clients/bar333/SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css
Any help greatly appreciated... A million thanks in advance! // Justine

Hi,
I have checked the link in IE6 and IE7.
What is your problem... PNG transparent image will not support In IE6. It shows a gray background. If this is your problerm search for PNG fix and apply in your site.
Or your talking about the dropdown list under bars which is moved to left..?? (See the attachment.)
Thanks

White rectangles instead of transparency

Hello all,
I am a beginnger in InDesign - what a great tool!
I get white rectangles instead of transparency when exported as (any version of) PDF or printed, but fine when exported as JPEG. I am using a 3rd party template
Using InDesign 6.0
Thank you,

Hello Peter, thank you for rapid reply.
I am having white box effect. It is around the imported .ai files (which do not scale properly as well - another problem). See screenshot (ignore the font mismatch):
http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/8122/screenshotfrom201209041.png
I assume it can be fixed as the third party company who provided this template were able to export it smoothly to a PDF (see image above, rightmost screenshot)
I tried remedies from the link you gave, no change/luck:
* Overprint preview (not available in Acrobat Reader 10 anymore)
* Simulate overprint (and print it to PDF via CutePDF Writer) - same white boxes
* Transparency flattener set to all-raster - same white boxes
I have "Coated FOGRA27" CMYK profile, instead of the workspace's default "US Web Coated SWOP v2", I set Id CS6.0 to "Preserve Embedded Profiles" - still white boxes
Hope you can help, before I finally attempt to contact the 3rd party company (they are not overly helpful/available as you are)
Thank you,

Firefox suddenly misinterpreting wmode transparent. Instead, displaying my content against a white background, instead of transparent. HELP.

Please help fix my flash issue!!!!! The menu has always worked perfectly for several years. It suddenly stopped working yesterday.

Paste this code in the Scratchpad and issue Execute Run to see the change.<br />
I don't know which script is responsible, but I see the problem in Firefox 3.6.26 as well.
<pre><nowiki>E=document.getElementsByTagName("embed")[1];
alert(E.getAttribute("src")+"\n"+E.getAttribute("wmode"));
document.getElementsByTagName("embed")[1].setAttribute("style","display:none");
document.getElementsByTagName("embed")[1].setAttribute("wmode","transparent");

Internet browser problems (white block at bottom of screen)

Hi,
Recently I have been unable to properly use the internet on my BlackBerry Curve. Over a quarter of the screen at the bottom when I go on the internet is white so I can't scroll down so it's unusable. I've noticed although it is accessing the internet the little blue loading to the intenet bar when a page is loading is no longer showing at the top of the screen too. If I search for something like a restaurant or something on Google for example, the first restaurant will show in the list but because of the white block and no scroll down bar I can't look at anything else. It's very weird. Can anyone advise me as to what might be happening, I'd really appreciate it.
Many thanks

Printing PDFs results in random white blocks

Hey,
Got a really perplexing problem that only happens when I print pdfs, whether through the reader or online. Theres random blocks of white, where the printer hasn't printed anything. I print it again, same problem, same random white blocks in same places. Does anyone have any ideas as to what may be causing it? I'd greatly appreciate any advice!
Thanks,
ivory_panic

Can you please tell what type of printer you are using and and also the type of pdf you are trying to print?

Spry menu error in EI Disappearing List Background Bug

I wanted to be able to update the menu once so I made the menu as a library item. At first the menu kept dissapearing in EI, somehow I fixed it so it actually does show up properly now but Dreamweaver is still showing the error " Disappearing List Background Bug in EI" all in the opening of the <ul> . And now I have also noticed that there is an issue with the first menu, when rolling over the "company tab" it drops down the sub-menu and let you click on "about" it goes to the page but from there when you roll over the menu's they dont change color and they dont show the sub-menu. This work fine if I go to any other menu on that bar exept for the first one. I dont know what to do, and apreciate any help!

The reason the menu does not work in the about page is because there is no link to SpryMenuBar.js on the page.

My MacBookPro (mid 2012) will not complete the boot process. Yosemite's progress widget gets about 1/3 to 1/2 way across when the logo disappears and the screen goes all white for 10-15 secs or so, then the machine shuts down and restarts.

My MacBookPro (mid 2012) will not complete the boot process. Yosemite's progress widget gets about 1/3 to 1/2 way across when the logo disappears and the screen goes all white for 10-15 secs, then the machine shuts down and restarts. This sequence will repeat seemingly forever unless I shut it down manually.
I upgraded to Yosemite from Mountain Lion a couple months ago, skipping Maverick completely, and I've done any associated updates that Apple told me about. I don't recall which version of Yosemite I have, but I'm sure it is the "latest and greatest".
I've tried re-starting in Safe Mode / Safe Boot and that does the same thing as described above except without the endless restarts. Instead of restarting at some point, SafeBoot proceeds to the white screen and then it hangs until I restart it manually. (I've waited as long os 20-30 minutes with no response).
When I tried the option-command-p-r key combo I never get any chimes or other noises besides the original 1 time boot sound that you would expect to get when starting up a macbook pro.
I was using the mac quite normally (meaning I was doing work I normally do on it and there was no indication of anything wrong) immediately prior to this happening.
The machine is BootCamp(ed) with Windows 8.1 which I use from a VMWare virtual machine instead of natively so that I can have both OSes running at the same time. I also think this is unrelated to my problem. I have been using this setup for more than 2 years.
My upgrade to Yosemite was uneventful and I thought it went well and was very smooth. I don't want to lead attention away from Yosemite, but at this point my problem does not seem related to the upgrade.
Any help is appreciated.

Install or Reinstall OS X from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
      left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
      the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
      the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
           because it is three times faster than wireless.

List of Problems with new Web Mail

List of Problems with NEW Web Mail :
- At first doesn't open full page message list or retain full page as default setting, have to drag down bar
- Only shows 20 message lines after “pulling down” the divider, screen partially empty until I scroll down. It should show at least 26, preferably all available
- After moving bar, bar moves back up after going back to inbox (not delete message) after reading a message, have to move it down again, and again...
- Doesn't go to next message when delete message on screen is selected, no setting option for default to do this.
- There is a drop down to select which folder to move a selected email to. The initial display shows 7 usable choices, with the usual slider and arrow to show more choices. The space on the slider clearly shows more choices are present (actually about 20 or so are there), but any attempt to use the slider or arrow to see more choices causes the drop-down to instantly disappear. I can't move the selected field with arrow keys either. I can select any of the visible 7 choices, and move an email to only one of the 7. NOTE: This one works in both IE and Firefox, but if Verizon Webmail was fully web standard (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_standards) compliant it would also work in my preferred browser, Mozilla Seamonkey, the direct descendant of the original Mozilla browser. Webmail should be FULLY web standard.
- Occasionally a message will move from inbox to trash, without NO indication or command to move them.
- Emails occasionally flash an error message and simply disappear - not to trash or other findable place, just disappear. No time to read the error message either.
- No way to set a whitelist for supposed spam emails, unless the whitelist for “Blocking” is the same. Very unclear.
- How can I switch my service back to the original, basic, email which works ok? I know it’s still there, since some of my other accounts still access it!!!
This seems my only way of getting this info direclty to the programming staff. If it doesn't actually do this, will SOMEONE PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO THEM !?!
Thanks!

Contrarily, it is Verizon's, as well as other companies like Verizon whose customer base uses a wide variety of web browsers, web page designers' responsibility to use only standard W3C-recognized code and not to use non-standard non-W3C-recognized code, e.g., Microsoft's Internet Explorer specific code, when designing their web pages. In my opinion based on my observations, Verizon's web page designers are too often guilty of using IE-specific code.

Line of White blocks in screen (iPhone 5)

Since a few weeks my iPhone 5 is showing a line of White 'blocks' on the top edge of the screen (over status bar). The effect sometimes disappears after the phone has been in standby, only to re-appear after using an App.
I have tried:
- complete switch off/re-boot
- complete erase of the phone to factory settings
In the latter case, the effect returned after synchronizing with iTunes.
Any ideas on how to get rid of this? It seems logical to assume that a specific App might be the cause, but I have no idea which one. I suspected Emoji, but erasing it didn't solve the problem. iTunes does not show the app anymore, so I am assuming that it has been erased properly.

I had the same problem, especially when I was opening the calculator from the control centre. I had a lot of apps grouped based on category. I fixed the problem resetting the main screen, all the apps were ungrouped and since then I’m not having that white block on the screen.
Please let me know If it worked for you!

White blocks appearing on pages. Please HELP!

I'm developing a website but I'm having problems with Safari. So far I've tested the website as follow:
PC:
IE 6, 7, 8
FireFox
Mac:
Safari
FireFox
Where not specified the browser's version is the latest.
The website is at http://www.douglasinscotland.co.uk/
I'm experiencing this problem in Safari for Mac only. The website is within a main frame as this method is forced by the hosting provider. I don't have access to the main (containing) frame of the frameset.
The problem: when browsing quickly between different pages in the website often the page don't seem to load properly. Instead of appearing with a consistent dark background, it appears with some white blocks as if the browser failed to load properly the background colour for certain parts of the page. To experience it you need to click several times on the menu in the top right of the website.
The strange thing is that when the white blocks appear they disappear when clicking deselecting the Safari window by clicking on the desktop or by switching to a different desktop in Spaces and going back to the one containing Safari.
I've tried this from a different Mac in a friend's house and it's happening the same.
I've used CSS and some JavaScripts on the pages.
Could anybody please give me a clue where to look at to solve this annoying problem?
Thanks
paolo

i don't see it today- repeated loads, new sessions, empty cache...just can't re-create it.
I do get a flash of white background before each new page loads - but I think that's just webkit's slightly clunky way, it does that with plenty of dark background sites (not yours unless in a frame), whereas firefox & others seem to handle the changes more subtly.
Anyway - it's kinda hard to test with no problem showing here - Umm, I'd get all the page code cleaned up so it passes the W3C validator, just in case safari's getting flummoxed by a mix of x/html, and maybe test the frameset thing that's forced on you, using local files?... dunno really, sorry. I guess I'd blame Virgin's frameset code, which did seem to be guilty before, and say Oi, get some real hosting for the domain.

What's the deal with large white blocks in exported jpegs

I just exported my first job I ran through Aperture. Out of 736 files, 9 were flawed. When opened, the exported jpeg had a missing section of the photo, that was all white. The white block appeared in random spots but always on the edges. The problem didn't occur the second time around with the same 9 files/ this time processed in a batch of 9.
I need to know how to export files reliably - in my workflow, I don't have time to double check file quality.
Has anyone seen this issue? I've seen it with 1.1.1 and 1.1.2.
I'm shooting with a 1ds mrkII.
MacBookPro Mac OS X (10.4.6)

i've seen this too, in other odd ways. it seems to affect the images that i've spotted (with the patch tool) and have other corrections/adjustment applied. its almost like the GPU gets too overloaded to accurately recreate all of the image mods. the image seems to be segmented into smaller rectangular sections that probably get loaded into the video card's memeory and the adjustments and corrections are applied on smaller, more managable sections. when the image is stitched back together something goes horribly wrong!
the sections tend to be mis-matched with some completely black, some that have black spots where the patch tool was applied, other sections have what looks like a white overlay that's 50% opaque. sometimes even my thumbnails come up with the same results as these malformed exports. i've been able to shake them back to normalcy by toggling one of the corrections (spot/patch, highligh/shadow, etc). after the thumbnail updates properly, the export usually works fine.
this is definitely a bug with aperture and i would report it as such. attach and send the image to the bug report if you can!

ps: for what its worth, i'm usually shooting with my Nikon D200 these days.

Long list of problems I had, culminating in iPhone no longer powering on.

So, let me start off by saying, there is no Apple Store available save by taking a plane to another island.
Anyway, awhile back when I updated my phone to a new version (I don't remember which), a bunch of things started happening.
1. No WiFi, it was grayed out, and inaccessible.
2. Would not ring if someone called me while the phone was on standby, except sometimes if it was plugged in and charging.
3. Calls would sporadically fail, and signal strength would alternate between full bars to none, to showing "No Service", and sometimes would show "No Sim". I could usually (not always) get service or signal strength back by toggling airplane mode on or off, but the only way to get rid of "No Sim" was to power it on and off.
4. Clock would always show the wrong time. It would seemingly stick at say... 3:40.. even though it was 6:00, then suddenly before my eyes jump forward 2 hours to the right time or still a bit behind. This also caused the alarm functions to not work, because it would usually skip over the time it was supposed to go off.
5. Error messages would occasionally flash on the screen, but disappear so quickly as to be nearly unreadable, sometimes saying "Please connect to iTunes" but it hadn't done that one in awhile.
6. A general sluggishness at times, also weird delays on sounds or none at all. I.E. I'd take off standby (wouldn't make swish sound), start to type a text message, only there'd be no sound while typing, but then 30 seconds later it'd make the swish sound it normally makes as you take it off standby, and resume clicking when typing.
Restoring it through iTunes would not help at all.
Anyway, so today, I tried restoring it like 6 times in a row out of pure frustration, and it like got stuck in recovery mode while rebooting, and when iTunes was restarting it, it just turned off.
The iPhone will no longer turn on, even when plugging it in to my computer or to the outlet charger, no matter if I hold power or home button or both.
Update: I just got it to power on again, about an hour after I was last trying fruitlessly. I restored it again, so it's "working" albeit with the long list of problems above still.

If you regularly sync your iPhone, you won't lose ANY info when restoring.
iTunes creates and maintains a backup of your iPhone - which is updated if needed as the very first step during the sync process. The backup stores all your iPhone settings, SMS messages, notes created with the Notes application, recent calls, call favorites, visual voicemail messages, and photos captured by your iPhone - basically all data stored on your iPhone not included with the sync process.
Your iPhone has not died - not yet, but it has developed a problem which requires a Restore.
It isn't required to have an Apple Store near you. This can be handled over the phone by calling AppleCare (800) 694-7466, but I venture to say that AppleCare will try to troubleshoot the problem over the phone before having your iPhone picked up for inspection and testing, which will very likely include a Restore just as the error message provided indicates. You can do it now, which will probably resolve the problem, or wait and do it when calling AppleCare.

Nightly Builds - White Blocks Over Components?

Hello,
Working on a flex 4 project, have been using the latest milestone release (4.0.0.10485) — though need to implement drag drop in List components (which isnt supported in this release) Have just tried using some of the nightly builds and all my components render with big white blocks over them. Anyone seen this behaviour? Ideas on what might be causing it?
Thanks,
Rory

Large White Blocks - not refreshing

Hi All,
Got a simple little problem.
I have an application that pops up a number of windows, once I close them there is an unsightly white block left where they used to be. The worst culprite is the filedialog popup. How do I 'refresh' the underlying frame ?
Along a similar line, I want to display some text just after the filedialog closes, a "Please Wait" message, but although System.out.println displays, the text in my frame does not.
Any thoughts ?

The snippet shows a popup being called, then the suggested code to refresh the frame that lay under the popup.
what actually happens is: the popup appears, is clicked on to answer it, the popup closes, and the underlying frame now has a white block appeared on it, just under where the popup was.
I am developing, and would like to keep an 'old' windows feel, so am trying not to use too much swing.
The code for my frame contents is
public XXXX(String title) {
     /* Display stuff */
          super(title);
          int frame_height = 500;
          int frame_width = 600;

HDR PRO in tool image has a large white block through it and buttons are unresponsive. How do I fix this?

When I open images in HDR Pro I am met with a washed out image with a big white block through the middle about a third of the size of the image.
This disappears when I export the image, which would be fine, but the buttons and sliders are not working in the app.
This means The tool is useless. Any fixes?
Cheers

The symptoms you describe sound like there is an application-modal popup message box covering over the main HDR tool area but for some reason the message box is not fully rendered and you can only see the background, not the message it contains.
This could be a transient condition that would be remedied by rebooting, or it could be a video-driver incompatibility that might be resolved by updating your video drivers from the manufacturer’s website, or perhaps changing the Graphics Processor Settings in the Performance tab of Photoshop Preferences. You can uncheck Use Graphics Processor and restart Photoshop and see if things are different. If so, then turn it back on, but adjust the level of acceleration in the Advance Settings from Advanced to Basic or in between and also turn on and off the other settings in Advanced Settings area to see which ones make a difference.
If none of these grpahics system changes make any different, perhaps change the amount of memory that is being used in the PS / Prefs / Performance area, adjust it both more and less from what it is currently set to.
