Firefox and Inserting an image

Just noticed this one this morning when I tried to put a logo into one of my posts.
Clicking the Insert Image button will bring up the dialog box. But clicking the Browse button will cause Firefox to freeze and become unresposive. The only way out of it is to click the close button until Firefox crashes.

Hi Laura,
I'm using Firefox 3.6.12
I can confirm though that GMail is also displaying the same behavior this morning. Trying to browse for a file attachment hangs the browser. So it sounds like a FF issue.

Spacing of Spry Menu submenu items, and inserting background images

Hiya, need a bit of help, could someone possibly guide me with this?
I've created a Spry Menu in DW CS5 - so far, so good.. However I'm pretty new to CSS Styles so need pointers at what to change to get the result I need. I've created the spry menu, however the submenu dropdown items are not flush to the ones above, theres a 1px horz gap between each item and while it looks okay, its particularly visible in Firefox and Chrome and would prefer no spacing at all..
The live site is at http://www.ebm.co.uk/2011site/indexnavbar2.html
if you take a look at the drop down menu bar you'll see what i mean - what do I need to do to remove the spacing?
I also want to replace the solid colour with images, where do I specify the images for 1) top menu item 2) submenu item and 3) 'hover' item, and do I need to make any areas transparent?
Any advice would be much appreciated.. thanks!

I can insert image, and no problem with inserting
But after that, where content of jtextpane is saved and opened again, image is not able to delete...
If is there any solution?
Sorry for my broken English.

Hi everyone,
Does the image get saved when you serialize the document?
What are you doing to serialize the document by using xml or by serializing it as an object or by using the rtf kit

I used to be able to use the reduce picture ( middle button ) using Firefox and dragging the image to another screen. How do I restore this as the reduce button will not work ?

The top right corner of the screen allows you to reduce the size of your entire image on Firefox . I used to be able to do this so I could drag the image to another screen . Suddenly I cannot do so anymore from my laptop. What can I do ?

Could you clarify where you are doing your search?
''For Firefox's "Search bar",'' which is the box on the right end of the main navigation toolbar with the icon indicating your currently selected search engine, there is a hidden setting for this:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''sear''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''browser.search.openintab''' preference to switch it from false to true.
If you test, does it work?
''For searches from other places,'' could you be more specific about where you are entering your query (e.g., address bar, built-in home page, on a search engine site)?

PHP 5 Code to Upload and Retrieve an Image (aka BLOB) with Oracle

I keep being asked about BLOBs. For posterity, here is my example updated
to use the new PHP 5 OCI8 function names, and using bind variables for the BLOB id.
-- cj
<?php
// Sample form to upload and insert an image into an ORACLE BLOB
// column using PHP 5's OCI8 API.
// Note: Uses the new PHP 5 names for OCI8 functions.
// Before running this script, execute these statements in SQL*Plus:
//   drop table btab;
//   create table btab (blobid number, blobdata blob);
// This example uploads an image file and inserts it into a BLOB
// column. The image is retrieved back from the column and displayed.
// Make sure there is no whitespace before "<?php" else the wrong HTTP
// header will be sent and the image won't display properly.
// Make sure php.ini's value for upload_max_filesize is large enough
// for the largest lob to be uploaded.
// Tested with Zend Core for Oracle 1.3 (i.e. PHP 5.0.5) with Oracle 10.2
// Based on a sample originally found in
//     http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ocinewdescriptor.php
$myblobid = 1; // should really be a unique id e.g. a sequence number
define("ORA_CON_UN", "hr");             // username

I am using oracle 10g [10.2.0.1.0] and PHP 4.3.9 with Apache.
I tried my best to change the old functions names for example(oci_fetch)
to the new (OCIFetch),i works every where, but i could not find the corresponded functions of (oci_fetch_assoc) that's why i can not see my BLOBS at all!
Can some help me please, to know where are corresponded functions of oracle 8 to oracle 10g?
Exactly here is my problem:
$query = 'SELECT BLOBDATA FROM BTAB WHERE BLOBID = :MYBLOBID';
$stmt = ociparse ($conn, $query);
OCIBindByName($stmt, ':MYBLOBID', $myblobid);
ociexecute($stmt, OCIDEFAULT);
$arr = oci_fetch_assoc($stmt);
// OCIFetchAssoc, OCIFetch, OCI_ASSOC ... nothing works-> Fatal error: Call to undefined function:
$result = $arr['BLOBDATA']->load();
What should i do?
Thanky very much.

Outlook 2013 (and up) squashing images when received on certain devices.

When we create an email inside of Outlook 365 and insert a image (in-line) into the mailer we have a lot of layout problems.
The email looks fine when sent to a desktop PC, but when it goes out to a Notebook running a version of Outlook after 2007 the image gets squashed in the direction of alignment
(ie, left aligned imaged gets squashed to the left).
The copy layout is fine , and if it is built inside of a table then the table or table cells do not adjust. Only the images get distorted. We are picking this problem up more
as more people buy new machines and or migrate to a newer versions of Outlook.
We have tried saving images as 96dpi/ppi and tried numerous fixes found online, but most relate to Outlook 2007 and down, and none seem to work. Unfortunately our
clients often require the images to be inserted (inline) rather than being linked to a hosted image. When we send the same email to an Gmail account the images display perfect, it only appears to be an issue when sending to Outlook.
Is there a way to get around this issue or to fix it?
Thanks

Can you post a screenshot of this and the accompanying HTML source?
Without that, it is hard to judge where this could be coming from.

Insert Link and Insert Image broken in Chrome

The Insert Link and Insert Image buttons have been broken in my Chrome for at least the last couple of days (latest version, 32.0.1700.72 m, Windows 7 64).
When you click one of the buttons, the overlay window appears with a title, but it is otherwise black with no contents. (See screenshot below.)
The buttons work fine in Firefox. What hasn't helped: deleting cookies, clearing the browser cache, waiting for several minutes for their content to appear.

Whtat are we supposed to Claudio? All descend on Adobe with clubs and try to beat some sense into someone!
The fact is the customer is no longer the prime concern. Most companies don't give a Rats behind (toned down to prevent censors action) about the customers. It's the almighty dollar. Screw as many customers as they can while they can and line their pockets with all the green backs as they can while they can. Then if the cusomers leave so be they take their money and run.
Customer use to have power, they would speak loud and frequently and get things fixed. And what with people from other countries now owning US companies, That were brought up with different moral compasses. They have no concept of this thing of loyalty to customers. The customer can jump off a cliff and they will simply cheer them on while the do so.
We have lost, the fight can't be won. It no use. So Pat and others are right.
I've been trying for 15 years for adobe to fix the issue of having multiple Pdfs created from Office documents because the claim they can't figure out how MS does Page and section breaks. And the issue of Weblinks not being active when converted to PDF's Both on Mac's yet on PC's there is no issue. I quite this year after I received a down right nasty not from Adobe say they didn't have any interest in fixing the bugs and were not about to try. What it amounted was go take a flying leap.
They have the ability. They have beenblaming Its apple because they don't do such and such , or Microsoft because they don't do so and such. On the Links issue Saying MS doesn't provided the necessary hooks in the mac version of Office. They do you can take a Word document created on a Mac and open a PC and create a PDF and the links will be active. You can Open a Word Document in Apple's pages and all links created in Office document will be there. The argument has been proven several different ways to be a an outright bald-faced lie. The defect is squarely with the Mac version of Acrobat.
So Pat and others are right. Just throw in that towel. Adobe support of its customers is now 10 times worse than intuit's which is supposed have the lowest reputation of any software compny that ever existed.

TWO CRITICAL BUGS: 1) File, "Save Page As" and 2) right-click the picture and select "Save Image As", both do not work at all in Firefox 27, 28, and 29!

Note: capitals are used only to highlight important words.
PLEASE, TAKE THESE COMMENTS ON TWO CRITICAL BUGS VERY SERIOUSLY BECAUSE THE BUGS DESCRIBED BELOW ARE SO CRITICAL THAT I CANNOT USE THE LATEST VERSION OF FIREFOX UNLESS THEY DO NOT APPEAR IN THE LATEST VERSION AND THEREFORE I AM FORCED TO REVERT BACK TO FIREFOX 26.
I have Windows 7 64-bit and Firefox 26. I could not install Firefox 27, 28, and 29 due to the persistent presence of the two critical bugs described below. I have 8 GB of RAM and an Intel quad-core processor and a lot of hard disk space available.
I installed Firefox 27 and then Firefox 28 a while back and these two bugs described below were still present and now I have just checked again with Firefox 29 by installing it and yet again, these two bugs described below are present!! UNBELIEVABLE THAT THESE TWO CRITICAL BUGS ARE STILL PRESENT IN FIREFOX 29 WHEN I CLEARLY INFORMED YOU ABOUT THEM IN THE HELP, SUBMIT LINK OF FIREFOX!!
I am forced to revert to Firefox 26!
First, I use Windows 7 64-bit and I always use Firefox with at least 120 tabs opened. BUT I have 8 GB of RAM, an Intel core i7 quad-core processor and more than 1 TB of hard disk space. Consequently, I do not understand why I would have these two critical bugs.
With Firefox 26, I also have at least 120 tabs opened when I start Firefox and I do not have the two critical bugs described below, therefore I do not believe that the number of tabs is the reason of the two critical bugs that are present in Firefox 27, 28, and 29.
---FIRST CRITICAL BUG:
When I open ANY web page and do File, "Save Page As", the window that is supposed to open to locate the folder where I want to save this web page does NOT open at all, even if I wait a long time to see if it opens.
Same problem happened with Firefox 27, 28, and now 29!! When I reverted back to Firefox 26, this problem did NOT happen anymore!
---SECOND CRITICAL BUG:
When I use Google Images, for instance entering model in the search field of Google Images and then pressing enter.
Then I select any picture, open to a new tab this selected picture, then open a new tab by selecting the option View for this picture. Then right-click the picture and select "Save Image As".
Again, the window that is supposed to open to locate the folder where I want to save this picture does NOT open at all, even if I wait a long time to see if it opens.
Same problem happened with Firefox 27, 28, and now 29!! When I reverted back to Firefox 26, this problem did NOT happen anymore!
---THESE TWO CRITICAL BUGS DO NOT APPEAR WHEN I USE INTERNET EXPLORER 11.
I have no idea if you will be able to reproduce these two critical BUGS but I can assure you that they are not present when I use Firefox 26 and they are present when I use Firefox 27, 28, and 29. More, be aware that I have at least 100 tabs opened but I also have this same number of tabs opened in Firefox 26 and yet I do not experience these two critical bugs when I have Firefox 26!
Once again, these two bugs touch at two vital, critical very basic functions of Firefox and therefore I will NOT be able to use any version above 26 if these two bugs are still present, as they are present in Firefox 27, 28, and now 29!!!
Please, make it a priority to solve these two critical bugs. Thanks.
I did read a post related to the same issues “Firefox stops responding when trying to "save page" or "save image" | Firefox Support Forum | Mozilla Support” at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/991630?esab=a&as=aaq
I am still reading it again to try to figure out exactly what the person did to make his problems be solved, as the post is not clear at all on what solved the problems!
In any case, all the suggestions proposed in this post do not work and I surely cannot do a system restore when it is obvious that the two bugs do not appear in Internet Explorer.

First, I sent an email to the author of PhotoME to inform him of the serious issues his addon caused with Firefox latest versions.
Now, for those of you who do not have the PhotoME addon and yet experience the same problem that I had and that I described above, I suggest the following strategy.
As PhotoME did cause these problems with Firefox latest versions, I am pretty covinved other addons probably might cause these problems too. Therefore, adopt the following method.
Test one addon at a time to see if this particular addon is behind your Firefox issues like the ones I had.
So, disable one addon only at a time. Then close your Firefox and restart it from scratch and see if you still have your Firefox problems. You must restart the Firefox browser from scratch. If you still have these Firefox problems, re-enable the disabled addon, restart your Firefox (again!) and repeat the same method for every single addon that you have.
Try to be selective by choosing first addons that are more likely to cause your Firefox problems such as not very well-known or not very popular addons (like it was the case for the PhotoME addon).
If this method works or if it does not work, report it on this web page so that others can be helped with your comments.
I hope this method will help you because I was really upset that I had these Firefox problems and I first thought it was the fault of Firefox, only to discover later that this PhotoME addon was the culprit and had caused me such upset.

Inserting an image to Jframe and save it , in SQL database

Hai guys,
I just wanna know about the inserting image in to a Jframe (in netBeans) it will be a grate help if you tell me the way to call a image to Jframe through a Button click and save the image in MySQl database.
Is anyone has a idea about this task, please tell me
Thanks,

Image class should work to get the data, then add it to a Canvas object, then you can save the bytes from the Image into an SQL statement through JDBC.
The implementation details will vary based on which approch and database you select.

I try to insert some images on a website but the images are not in the right color mode. I do not know what to do? and also I have 1200 images to insert so I can not change one after one. So I need to set up an action, but I donot know how to do it... Tha

What is the problem specifiaclly?
If the images are intended for web use I would recommend converting them to sRGB which could be done with Edit > Convert to Profile or with File > Save for Web, but as including a Save step in Actions and applying them as Batch can sometimes cause problems I would go with regular converting.
You could also try Image Processor Pro.

Image cache not working with Firefox and apex

Hi,
I'd like to cache all my images to save page rendering time and bandwidth because my images are all static and never change.
I use the John Scott's caching technique Link: [http://jes.blogs.shellprompt.net/2007/05/18/apex-delivering-pages-in-3-seconds-or-less/], in a few words this technique consists of adding a header line "Expires: date in the future" in the http response.
It works very well in IE, the images are cached and the same image can be accessed several times (within the same session or in different sessions) without issuing an http request to the server each time.
with Firefox it does not work, the same image is asked again and again to the server (i'm using FF 3.5 and APEX 3.2).
- Is it a date format problem? no, because when i type about:cache in FF, i can find my image in the cache with an expire date in the future.
The weird thing here is that the counter is incremented each time u request the image, so FF knows it is in the cache and even if the expire date is in the future, FF asks it again to the server.
- Is it a FF bug? If u read the http specs or if u google a little, u can come to the conclusion that FF does not follow the standards,
but... images.google.com for example manages to get its images cached with FF.
They use an http response header "cache-control: public, max-age=604800".
I tried the same and all kinds of combinations but without success.
When i compare my image with the one from google in the FF cache, they both have the same attributes.
- It's not an apex issue neither because it works with IE, most probably an incompatibility between apex and FF?
Maybe the use of cookie? or the http request (not the response) containing "cache-control: max-age=0"?
I've found so far 2 half solutions:
1) use ETag and modified date, see the Tyler Muth's note Link: [http://tylermuth.wordpress.com/2008/02/04/image-caching-in-plsql-applications/].
with this technique FF continues to send request each time but the answer is shorter because it's just a "304 not modified" instead of "200 OK" (200 response is bigger as it contains the image).
it's better than nothing but you still have 1 request + 1 response for nothing.
Another problem is that you need SYS access to implement this, which is not possible on an hosted server. (note that for images from the file system it is already foreseen by apex 3.1, Tyler's note is for images from the db)
2) if you preload the image (using myimage=new Image();myimage.src='...';), then there is max 1 request per browser session.
There are 2 minor issues here:
- no caching across sessions
- if u don't want to preload all the images (example a page with lots of thumbnails, when user clicks it show a bigger image, in that case the thumbnails can be preloaded but overkill for the big images), then you need to load the image, wait until the image has loaded before displaying it, it does not slow down the execution, but requires some extra JS.
I'm not asking anyone to investigate it, i can live with the 2 workarounds,
but just in case someone encountered the same problem and already fixed it.
Let me know if u managed to use the John Scott's technique with Firefox. (U can use Firebug to see the http traffic)
Thx
Tim

I have just downloaded Mac OS X 10.9 and Pages 5. When I open any pre-existing document in the new Pages the format is zoomed to 125%, the headers are out of position, the margins are changes, and inserted images are also relocated. What can I do?
