Dynamic images display issues in FF and Opera

Dreamweaver 8
http://daylily.net/polytepals/results.asp?CultivarName=Carolina%20Octopus
Can someone please help me correct the following problem. The
dynamic image
on this page displays properly in Explorer but it will not
display in Opera
or Firefox. It works correctly in Netscape when Netscape is
set to display
as Explorer.
This is affecting all my dynamic images.
Thank you,
Bobby

  • Dynamic image displays depending on yes / no value

    Dynamic image displays depending on yes / no value    
    I´d like to have a image showing, depending on a specific value (y/n)
    ..sorry need some help.
    I can´t get it workin.....
    <img <?php $status="n";
    if ($status == "y") {
      echo 'src="stecker_on.png" alt="yes"';
    } else {
      echo 'src="stecker_off.png" alt="no"';
    } ?> height="71" width="101" />
    The image ist not showing... ideas ?
    All I get ist some text showing:
      height="71" width="101" />
    MANY THANKS !!!!

    Presumably you mean this -
    http://mediaconsults.de/1test/steckertest.php
    And it's not clear what that is going to show me.  Looking at the code on the page -
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Unbenanntes Dokument</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
    <!--
    function MM_reloadPage(init) {  //reloads the window if Nav4 resized
      if (init==true) with (navigator) {if ((appName=="Netscape")&&(parseInt(appVersion)==4)) {
        document.MM_pgW=innerWidth; document.MM_pgH=innerHeight; onresize=MM_reloadPage; }}
      else if (innerWidth!=document.MM_pgW || innerHeight!=document.MM_pgH) location.reload();
    MM_reloadPage(true);
    //-->
    </script>
    </head>
    <body background="test%20png.png">
    <div id="Layer1" style="position:absolute; left:1290px; top:246px; width:95px; height:112px; z-index:1"><img src="stecker_off.png" alt="no"height="101" width="71" /></div>
    </body>
    </html>
    I would advise you the following:
    1.  Put a valid and complete doctype on that page!
    2.  Get rid of the resize if NN4 javascript - it hasn't been needed for nearly a decade.
    3.  Fix your image code (note the missing space after "no"!
    4.  1290px is way too wide unless you want lots of people scrolling right to see things.

    I suppose it would have helped if you knew what it was supposed to look like!   I'm using Shockwave Flash 11.7.700.169  and the version of Firefox I'm on is 20.0
    When you see it in Firefox  - do the thumbnail populate the grid?  See attached populated and un-populated.

  • Indesign image display is very slow and jerky

    good morning
    I contacted Adobe Customer Service in Italy because I have big problems with the Creative Suite CS 5.5, in particular with Indesign and in general with the display of images of AI and Acrobat.
    As I work with Indesign image display is very slow and jerky. Even with AI and Acrobat work experience is not good, the images are jerky and there are hesitations in the fluidity of view.
    The software is installed on windows 7 64bit Utlimate, the workstation is very powerful: Supermicro motherboard, dual Xeon E5620 2.4ghz, 16gb ram, SSD OCZ vertex4, PNY Nvidia Quadro 4000.
    The customer service has sent me several tips for email, I have followed all the instructions but I did not get results. In conclusion, when I pointed out that reading on the forums I was not the only one who showed this problem and after discussing about my hardware configuration, they told me that the problem is probably due to the fact that I have two Xeon processors!
    In efects had observed that CS 5.5 on my notebook works better, but I never thought about having problems because the PC is powerful. I checked the CPU and GPU when using Indesign and I could see that uses a single CPU, and most "only 1 core"! But of CPUs in the system there are two for a total of 8 cores. Indesign seems to use only 1/8 of the available computing power ... In addition, practically does not use the GPU (only 10-15%).
    From the customer service was suggested to disable or remove a processor from the system. All this seems to me incredible. I use the workstation for applications that can take advantage of the power of the machine, should I remove the processor whenever I have to use CS 5.5? If things are this way I'm thinking of asking if Adobe buy me a PC with a single processor only for use with CS 5.5 ...
    Thank you.

    Interesting idea, I'll investigate in this direction, I should try to make a mirror of the ssd on a traditional hard drive, exchange them and see if the situation changes. It must, however, be a further factor in the eventual bad combination hardware ... on my laptop I have: windows 7 x64, intel core i7 processor, 16gb of ram, nvidia quadro 3000m, and .... a ssd ocz agility 3, but indesign is more responsive.
    But why indesign should be influenced by the hard-drive? With 16gb of ram and working files on NAS because in design interacts with the hard drive?

  • Dynamic Image Displays Blank When Using In Visual Studio Project

    I am trying to simply display a dynamic image in a report. I am using Crystal Reports XI Release 2.
    I have two different environments: Local via Progress where reports are called using Crystal Viewer ActiveX, and over the web where reports are called from Open Laszlo and Visual Studio project.
    The image is set to a blank image as default, and Graphic Location Forumla loads the image from the database (site.logo_location + site.logo_filename) which results in an image http:
    www.vetinfo3.com\a.jpg.
    When I run the reports locally using the ActiveX control, it works just fine and displays the image.
    When I run over the web using OpenLaszlo, it displays a blank.
    Troubleshooting
    We are using Visual Studio 2005, which is bundled with an older version of Crystal that doesn't support dynamic images.
    To address this, I loaded Crystal XI Release 2, which updated the version in Visual Studio and enabled the Graphic Location formula field on the dev machine.
    I verified the Graphic Location field was set correctly.
    This caused a Version error, so we loaded cr_net_2005_mm_mlb_x86.zip on server and specified the Version in web.Config.
    No errors now, but when I build and publish the code, the image still displays as blank.
                From Fiddler
                   GET http://www.vetinfo3.com/mdsol1/CrystalImageHandler.aspx?dynamicimage=cr_tmp_image_c5d6a923-293b-4f1e-8739-4e698f83b087.png
                   Creates C:\Documents and Settings\Curtis\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\PWRUX2XW\CrystalImageHandler[1].png
                   Blank Image
    According to issues within Visual Studio, they say the fix to this is to add the <httpHandler> in web.Config, but it is already there; added when we add the viewer to the project:
    In web.Config I have some questions about this line:
        <httpHandlers>
          <add verb="GET" path="CrystalImageHandler.aspx" type="CrystalDecisions.Web.CrystalImageHandler, CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=11.5.3700.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304"/>
        </httpHandlers>
    There are more service packs for Crystal XI Release 2:
    crXIr2sp2_net_server_install.zip
    crXIr2sp3_net_server_install.zip
    crXIr2sp4_net_server_install.zip
    I have not loaded these yet, but the readme files do not indicate they fix any dynamic image issues.
    I am out of ideas on this; does anyone have any ideas?

    What about if you take OpenLaszlo out of the picture? E.g.; use one of our samples from here;
    https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsfor.NETSDK+Samples
    I'd recommend vbnet_web_simplepreviewreport
    Also, see [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a0437ea8-97d2-2b10-2795-c202a76a5e80] article.

  • Dynamic Image Gallery Issue

    Hello All!
    I am creating a dynamic image gallery, but when my external

    if you google with "dynamic image gallery", you'll find a lot
    of
    tutorials & examples including pre-programmed solutions
    if you prefer to do it yourself, you need to deal with
    dynamic sites. DW
    help chapters Preparing to Build Dynamic Sites, Making Pages
    Dynamic &
    Developing Applications Rapidly can also help to understand
    in fact you don't need a database, the images can be read
    from the
    folder they're stored. that way to update a gallery you only
    need to
    remove/replace/add images. one folder for each gallery
    and the application development forum is best suited for your
    question
    BTW, some nice photos in your page

    When you use @Embed the image is...embedded. That means it is
    compiled into
    the file, when it's not running. The compiler has _no_ idea
    what the value
    of your variable is expected to be at runtime.
    Try
    <mx:Image height="35" width="35"
    source="{r.currentItem.mood}"/>

  • 3.2 image rendering issues when cropping and straightening

    Upgraded to 3.2 - all works well so far but have noticed that the top 1/3rd of image disappears during the cropping and straightening processes in the viewer window, but only with portrait/vertically oriented images.  Anyone else have that issue?

    Still on Snow Leopard here and I just tried this. Sorry to report it worked OK for me. I tried both  straightening then cropping and then the reverse. No problems.
    Does it happen on all portrait images? Could you post a screen shot of the results?
    There wasa report of something similar a while back. Here's the thread:
    After straightening/cropping 1/2 or 3/4 of displayed image is blacked out!  Don;t know how that turned out.

  • Create dynamic image, dump on server someplace and reference in JSP?

    I was thinking about creating dynamic images and referencing them on a JSP
              (creating them is ok). I'm sure this is a pretty standard thing, but I
              don't know how to do it. Any ideas? I tried doing a search on the BEA
              support site (nice changes :>) but nothing very accurate came up.
              Thanks.
              

    Assign an ID (e.g. 1234) to the uploaded file. You should abstract the store
              so that it will work on the file system or in the database.
              The JSP will include an image ref to that ID, e.g.
              http://www.myco.com/myapp/imageservlet?id=1234
              The image servlet will retrieve and stream the image. It has to set content
              type etc. You should also verify that the current user has access to the
              requested image if security/privacy is an issue.

  • HDCP display issue with Yosemite and Macbook air

    Hi - Sorry if the question has been asked before and answered.
    I have an issue where since I have upgraded to Yosemite, I cannot play any of the movies I bought prior to upgrading and I can even play trailer from the iTunes store...
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Too bad this didn't help.
    HDCP errors can also occur when your display settings are incorrect and when you have non-original / non-Apple display software installed. Think a special driver to support a specific type of external display, or a remote viewer application like TeamViewer or AirParrot.
    If you're having the HDCP error with an external display, disconnect it and test with the MacBook Air's own display.
    If the issue persists on the MacBook Air's own display:
    To restore your display settings to factory default: do a PRAM reset:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14222?viewlocale=en_US
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Option, Command (⌘), P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on your Mac.
    Immediately press and hold the Option-Command-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Continue holding the keys down until your Mac restarts, and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    If you have special software installed, it would be best to try to boot the computer to safe mode:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH18760
    Choose Apple menu > Shut Down.
    After your Mac shuts down, wait 10 seconds, then press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold down the Shift key.
    You should press the Shift key as soon as possible after you hear the startup tone, but not before.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple logo and progress indicator.
    If that doesn't solve it, peruse your Applications folder in the Finder and see if you can delete unwanted video / viewing-related applications.

  • Dynamic image display (based on variable attribute) in Web application?

    Hi experts,
    I am using a Web Template (from the Web application designer) based on a BEx Query.
    This web template displays a logo (jpg image) and the report. 
    Is there a way to add another image to my web app and having the right logo displayed depending on a characteristic (sales organization for example) chosen in the variable screen (before the first rendering)?
    Thanks for your help.
    Points will be given to useful answers.
    Cheers,
    Olivier

    Thanks for your helpful answers guys.
    Andrey's tutorial helped me to catch the sales org variable value in a variable named salesorg (Script Item in the web template as well as Data Provider Info Item).
    Now could you explain how/where to use this variable to swith images? Is this still in the same Script_item where i should be able to "hide" / "show" the following XHTML tag?:
    <img   etc .......     img<
    Thanks for your help, I'm a bit confused on this last point (and not so comfortable with Java Script).

  • Pulling dynamic images/JS issue

    Hi All,
    I have a problem I was hoping I could get some help with. I
    am using Zoomify (www.zoomify.com) to zoom in on products. The
    products are loaded up dynamically based on a sting that is passed
    after the URL. Example:
    http://www.grjd.com/zoom/dynamic.html?zoomifyImagePath=back/&zoomifyZoom=25&zoomifyMinZoom =25
    Problem is I am unable to get rid of IE’s ‘click
    to activate this control’ annoyance. Typically I use the
    general JS’s out there to remedy the issue, however the
    javascript that is currently available doesn’t jive with the
    javascript in the HTML (see below) that declares the variables that
    in turn pull in the dynamic images.
    Does anyone have a remedy for this? Any help would VERY MUCH
    be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Greg.

  • SSRS Report Viewer display issues after KB2888505 and now KB2898785

    After patch KB2888505 both IE 9 and IE 10 started displaying cropped images with horizontal scroll bars when viewing SSRS Reports.  These reports functioned and fit the screen without scroll bars prior to this patch and returns
    to normal once the patch is uninstalled.  There is no compatibility mode icon in the address bar and I have tried all browser modes in the F12 Developer Tools Menu with no change.  Rolling back KB2888505 was a temp fix for my
    users until KB2898785 was installed reverting back to the same cropped reports with the scroll bar.  The only versions of IE in my environment are 9 and 10 and upgrading to 11 is not an option at this time.  Others have reported this same issue so
    maybe we can get more visibility on TechNet.    

    Hi,
    These two KB include too many Individual updates. It's hard to figure out which exact update lead to this issue.
    If you make sure the issue is caused by these updates package. The simple and easier way is to uninstall them.

  • Image Displays Differently in PS and Br CS4

    I have a gs tif file that I converted to cmyk. In PS the cmyk version looks virtually identical on screen to the gs version although when you hold the eyedropper over the image, cyan displays as a higher percentage than m or y, with k lowest in both the cmyk conversion and the grayscale original...what do I have set wrong!  In Bridge the cmyk version clearly shows a cyan cast.
    Color settings are synchronized in CS4.
    Can anyone tell me why: 1, the images are displaying differently, and, 2. using Convert To Profile, cymk, Working CMYK US Sheetfed Coated v2, image appears to have a distince cyan cast? And why, for that matter, is the GS image showing uneven cmyk percentages?
    Thanks in advance

    the images are displaying differently
    Have you proofing enabled in both of them? Even if the profiles match otehrwise, that option still has to be toggled.
    image appears to have a distince cyan cast?
    Well, if you print CMYK, you want "rich black", which means that it needs to be underprinted with another color to not look like a dull gray. Only spot black/ text black does not require that. That's not the point here, though. It's really due to the conversion being done wrong. If you really want to retain the blacks as a pure channel, use the method described. Also, if you can, in the future simply start out in CMYK to avoid these issues.

  • IMac display issues: black icons and folders, doubled up files in finder windows, programs won't update

    HELP!
    I'm hoping someone can help with my iMac 27" purchased in 2010.  From a previous discussion I started a year ago, I have had virtually nothing but trouble with it.  After the internal hard drive crashing, I was able to install OS X on an external drive and used it for a good 8 months to drive my iMac and I took it to an expert who has replaced it with a 3tb HDD, but at some point the display has gone crazy.  I am not certain if it is hardware, i.e. graphics card or video but I'll describe the symptoms and add some pics to see if anyone has seen this before and knows what the problem may be.
    1.     90% of the screen was covered with white with just a portion of the desktop showing through.
            (This happened when I tried to reinstall OS X on the old HDD and the new one, but didn't happen when using OS X install disc)
    2.     Files, folders, photos and some icons on the dock go black
    3.     Files and photos double up when in Finder.  When I'm viewing photos, it shows them but all the previous panes and the photos are jumbled behind the
            photos.
    4.     Anything I open in Preview is completely black, but ColourSync Utility opens everything fine.
    5.     Programs won't update.  They will download onto my iMac but won't update.  Some say, because I don't have OS X 10.6.8 others just won't open.
            Including Google Chrome, opens with two tabs open but when I open a third tab the rainbow wheel just turns.  Skype won't open just gives a failure
            report.
    6.     10.6.8 Update Combo downloads but when I restart the screen is covered in white - as in 1. and I have to reinstall OS X 10.6.2 to get the screen to               clear but then all the above problems continue.
    7.     Sometimes videos don't display in Youtube, or the entire page other than the video player is covered in rainbow lines.
    8.     Some buttons are blacked out on selection pages, i.e. system preferences, or saving screens
    9.     Photos opened in FB go upside down and flicker all over the page as my mouse runs over them.
    10.   Photos won't upload into internet editing programs.
    I can't find anyone who has had the same issue in all of the discussions I've looked at, but it sounds like I have a video problem, but I wondered if it might be a software problem with flash or something.  Or I have something malicious on my computer.
    I also have an iphone 5 that faulted with the iTunes and USB icons and won't fix after trying one of those R-Sims, and I wondered if somewhere along the line it may have even had a virus/trojan/malware that has infected my external drive and then my internal drive.  A reason I have thought that is because I have used my daughter's MacPro laptop and plugged in my external drive and I noticed the windows in hers were starting to do the same thing.
    And on top of all that, my fans didn't work for over a year and I had to place an external fan at the back of the computer or it would overheat and shut down, but after resetting the SMU it started working again, but it is very noisy. I have tried to download SMC Fan Control and although it downloads to the HDD, it won't open.
    Sorry its such a long post, I do hope with all of this information someone can help me.
    Thanks so much.

    HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
    *Soon after, I installed Quake Wars, L4D 1, 2, Mass Effect 2, Need For Speed: Undercover, Mozilla Firefox and *Sophos Enterprise AV*. Approximately a week after installation, I began to experience malfunctions varying greatly*
    Macs get grumpy when running anti virus software. Disable or completely uninstall Sophos A/V and see if that makes a difference. A/V software on a Mac will slow the drive down more and more as time goes on.
    Also, check the vendor sites for each 3rd party software you installed to make sure they are compatible with 10.6.x
    The "hard reboots" are a result of the system freezing due to incompatible or outdated software.
