Fixing overflow problem in IE, works with Firefox

Hello, first of all, thanks for looking and helping. I have a
div id="text" that uses an image for a background and I have text
written on top of it. I have the overflow set to auto for that div.
In firefox, scrolling down works fine, the image doesn't
move, just the scrolling text.
In IE, when you scroll down, the image stops at the bottom of
the page and there is a 50 pixel gap where you can see the page
background and some text on top of it, and then the top of the
background image shows up again with the text continuing onto it. I
tried all of the "repeat" options for the image and nothing worked.
Thanks again.

Show us your page, please.

  • Flash Player 11.3.300.262 Not working with Firefox. I think I found the problem.

    *Flash Player 11.3.300.262 is not working with Firefox. I think I found the problem.*
    Millions of people got off work & turned on there computers recently to discover that Firefox is not playing any videos or flash content. Just like me, millions of people are randomly searching the internet in a futile & frustrating attempt at answers. Unfortunately, many of those people will simply stop using firefox & deem it a glitchy, unreliable browser.
    This happened to me a couple days ago. I started up my computer & got a pop-up from Adobe saying that I need to update my flash player to 11.3.300.262. I've always thought of adobe as being a reliable software company, so I clicked on it with confidence that things will be working even smoother. To my horror, I relalized that right after the update, my main browser, firefox was destroyed. Then I went on the frustrating process of uninstalling, re-installing, running virus scan, researching the internet like a lost child. I said to myself, "that's why I hate updating stuff, because updates always seem to change stuff you don't want it to change & there always seems to be a problem with the updates." I usualy update software months after it releases, because microsoft & all the other software companies always seem not to test there stuff properly before releasing them. Then we have to look at a glitchy computer until the next update fixes it. Well, that is my rant. Now let me discuss the problem I found.
    Problem:
    What I did was, go into my firefox extentions menu & I disabled the 11.3.300.262 & I re-enabled the previous flash player. After that, everything worked perfect again. Then a today (a week later), I turned on my computer & my firefox wasn't playing any videos or flash content again. I went into my firefox extenions menu again, & I discovered that my old flash player had been deleted, & this new glitchy 11.3.300.262 had been enabled. Why did adobe feel the need to into my computer & automaticly delete & update my flash player. Now it doesn't work. THIS IS REALY FRUSTRATING!
    The Issue I discovered:
    "RealPlayer" is the most popular video program & it is installed on millions of computers. For some strange reason Firefox does not want its users to use Real Player. Specifically the RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin 15.0.2. I also discovered that my Browser Record Plugin 15.0.2 was automatically disabled when the Adobe 11.3.300.262 was automatically updated also.
    - Maybe this could be because of some copyright conspiracy to keep people from downloading videos from the web.
    - Maybe firefox wants people to use there download add-on instead of RealPlayers downloader.
    I don't know what ther reason is. But what I do know is Nobody is going to delete there RealPlayer from there computer just to use FireFox. We can simply use Chrome or Internet explorer. I took the advise from Adobe & disabled the FireFox RealPlayer Extention. I also went into my RealPlayer preferences options, But there was no option to disable download recording from FireFox. BECAUSE I ALREADY DISABLED THE ADD-ON in FireFoxes menu.
    Solution:
    Step 1: Adobe needs to update all the computers with the previous flash player. That way we can choose to enable the previous flash player in our FireFox. or wait until a new update fixes the problem with firefox.
    Step 2: Adobe & FireFox need to get together & go back to the drawing board. They need to create a update that actually works on computers that have Real Player installed on them. I don't care which company does the update. All I care about is if it works. Thank You.
    Oh yea, Im running FireFox 13.0.1, Windows 7, HP computer, Real Player is up to date.

    Hey Chris,
    I was able to duplicate this issue on my Windows 7 laptop as follows:
         1)  Completely uninstall FlashPlayer (using your tool) as well as Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Maintenance Service (used Windows 7 - uninstall from Control Panel).  Please note that I checked the box that said "Remove my Firefox personal data and customizations" to ensure that Firefox was completely gone from my laptop.
         2)  I then went out to the Firefox website and downloaded the "Firefox Setup 13.0.1.exe" app to my laptop.  I ran this app to install Firefox.
         3)  I then went to the following website http://www.ishmael.org.uk/karaoke02.php as I know that this URL uses Flash Player (obviously you can go to any URL that uses Flash Player - I'm just letting you know which one I used).  I then clicked on the icon on this page to install Flash Player.
    Once the install was completed, the URL stops responding and appears to be locked up (although it will occassionally hiccup and display portions of the page and then lock up again).  You will eventually get a pop-up notice from Firefox that has the header "Warning:  Unresponsive script" and says the following: 
         A script on this page may be busy or it may have stopped responding.  You can stop the script now, or you can continue to to see of the script will complete.  Script:  chrome://browser/content/browser.js:6551 
    Selecting "Stop script" will get Firefox working until you hit another page that uses Flash Player.
    To ensure that the above URL is not the culprit, I used one from your website http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html and had the same results.
    Hope this info helps!
    Jeff
    NOTE:  As a reminder, I do not have RealPlayer installed on my laptop (and never have had it installed)

  • A few of my pages don't work with Firefox nor Chrome. How do I fix this?

    I created my website from scratch (enjoyaquatics.com) but unfortunately a few of my pages don't work with Firefox nor Chrome. How do I fix this?
    Everything looks and works GREAT on Safari but not Firefox, Chrome, nor Internet Explorer.

    The pages look fine in FF and Chrome on my Mac. Didn't check with Win XP.
    If you use MSIE on a Mac, know that it became obsolete in 2003.

  • My iPhone 5 pairs with my automobile except it does not allow me to "pickup" calls using the car facility.  I've contacted Acura RDX 2013 about this problem.  It referred me Apple for a fix. My iPhone 4 worked with the car technology.

    My iPhone 5 pairs with my automobile except it does not allow me to "pickup" calls using the car facility.  I've contacted Acura RDX 2013 about this problem.  It referred me Apple for a fix. My iPhone 4 worked with the car technology.  Is there a fix for the iPhone 5 to allow call pickup via the Acura?
    Thanks

    HI Friend,
    Probably the problem it is because your iPhone 4 and your car have the same Bluetooth technology ( 2.1 ), but iPhone 5 has new Bluetooth technology ( 4.0 ).

  • Facebook and Slacker no longer working with Firefox. Still work with Explorer. Until a week ago problem did not exist.

    I am for about one week not able to input information on Facebook. Also the Facebook page appears in a huge font. Regarding Slacker I do not see any available online radio stations.

  • Java 7 Update 11 Not Working with Firefox

    For me, the problems described in the thread "Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox? " Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox?
    are continuing with Java 7 Update 11.
    Windows 7 64 bit
    Firefox 18
    The problem is that "Java(TM) Platform" is missing from the plug-in list.
    I've uninstalled Java 7 Update 11 and reinstalled Java Update 9 which correctly installs the plugin and restores Java functionality which was broken immediately upon installing both Java 10 & 11.

    So why not using Ju11 ? You can workaround the issue. It would sucks but still be safer than using Ju9.
    Also ask Mozilla forums if Firefox has options where to search for plugins.
    Or try 64-bit Firefox.As I explained in both threads ...
    Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox?
    Java 7 Update 11 Not Working with Firefox
    ... neither jre7u10 nor jre7u11 are working ... and they are BOTH broken with the same problem ... "Java(TM) Platform" pliugin is missing from the plug-in list. It cannot be enabled, because it simply is NOT there. A suggestion was made the jre7u12 will be the "fix" for this issue ... so I installed the Update 12 Preview and it sis ALSO broken, no "Java(TM) Platform" in the plug-in list.
    The ONLY Java version that actually works for me is jre7u9.
    As far as installing Firefox 64bit ... I see no future in installing a browser that has been discontinued.

    Even though Mozilla relented due to backlash, I continued development will be a somewhat low priority.

  • Laptop Mouse touchpad doesn't work with Firefox 4

    Previously in Firefox 3, I could use the touchpad on my laptop to middle click, and scroll. Now it won't work with Firefox 4. When I try to use the scroll feature it registers the mouse as scrolling, but the page doesn't move at all in Firefox. When I try to open a link in a new tab using middle click it shows the auto scroll but even then the orientation is wrong as well. When trying to close a tab using the middle click it shows the same left to right auto scroll instead. It works fine with a normal mouse, but with a touchpad it doesn't work at all. I have also tried using drivers to fix the problem, but that was not the issue.

    well, if you stick to firefox 4, then i'd say, well, babylon in my memories, it offers a online prompt method of translation, supporting tens of languages, similar to google translate webpages, the url is http://translation.babylon.com/ you can keep firefox 3.x and 4.0 in the same time in your windows. firefox 3.x to 4.0 update is not compulsory, so use the one you feel good with.

  • Does McAfee siteadvisor work with Firefox - if not, why not?

    does McAfee siteadvisor work with Firefox - if not, why not? Is there a way to make it work?

    No, it is blocklisted by Mozilla due to that Site Advisor extension being the #2 cause of crashing the Firefox 5.0 betas. McAfee was notified of the problem long before that extension was added to the blocklist. Now it is up to them to fix it. <br /> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/
    I have read that McAfee is working on a re-written version that is projected to be available in the 3rd week of July.

  • Flash player stop to work with Firefox

    Ok it’s just killing me!! Flash player stop to work
    with Firefox
    All my web site users including me have this problem and I
    guess all the millions of mozilla users
    When you press play it’s not working or it’s no
    sound
    What solve the problem is to download oldest Flash-Player
    Please fix it as fast as you can.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the assistance Chris.  I tried the 11.7 option without success.  I downloaded the 11.7 file, I closed all browsers, used the flashplayer uninstaller, restarted the CPU, installed the 11.7 (with auto updates disabled).  Restarted Firefox, tested a Flickr video, same "no-play" results. 
    However, after doing the same thing and downloading the Archive version http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.3.183.75_archive.z ip I was able to play the Flickr videos!  WooHoo. 
    I completed the update process to the latest version, and now the videos play properly with the latest version!
    Not sure what the bad actor was, the 11.7 version did not fix it, but the older 10.3 version did!
    Thanks to all for the assistance with this pain in the arse issue.

  • I am an online professor using Blackboard 9.1. Bb only works with Firefox 3.6 so I need to prevent Firefox from automatically updating. How do I stop the harassing update popups?

    I used to regularly update but I started experiencing problems with my online classes. Blackboard tech support said that your updates are not working so I had to uninstall and reinstall 3.6 and now everything works okay but I need to stop all the popups about updating.
    I already have it set so it asks first but I do not want to be asked.
    Thank you.
    Thank you. Patrizia

    You can install the portable Firefox 3.6.x version to access websites that do not work with Firefox 5+.

  • My Epson printer stopped working with Firefox today. It does test pages, will work on Notebook, and will work with IE. Up until today it worked with Firefox. Why can't I print anything from the internet with Firefox?

    Up until today, I did everything with Firefox. Then I was on Paypal and went to print a shipping label and the printer would not work. I went to troubleshoot page and it printed a test page. I uninstalled my printer and then re-installed it. Still would not work from an internet page. I did a system restore. Still didn't work. Called Epson. They say it's a Firefox problem because it works on Notebook and test pages. I installed IE and the printer works. What happened and how can I get it back working with Firefox?

    I have the same problem, I cannot print PayPal shipping label off of Firefox. I did the about.config entry and have seen that the print.print_printer does not exist at all in the list of entries. I use Vista 32. I use an Epson 545 wirelessly.

  • The "new" hotmail no longer works with safari, but works with firefox. Hmm.

    The "new" hotmail no longer works with safari, but works with firefox. Hmm. i find this very convenient being a microsoft product. anybody else wonder why this new version happens to not be safari compatible? does anybody know if it works on the PC version of safari? if not, i find this to be a blatant move on microsofts part to bias the safari browser (especially since its basicly new on the window platform). forcing safari/hotmail users to "have" to use another browser to access their hotmail accounts.

    I have been successfully using Hotmail and Gmail with Safari for a long time. For roughly the past month, that relationship is rocky at best. At times, one of the following actions suddenly opens Hotmail, but it is a short-lived solution:
    (a) Hotmail directly
    (b) Hotmail Home>Hotmail
    (c) Sign up to Windows Hotmail
    (d) Deletion of prescribed cookies, resetting, etc. - made no difference
    Both Firefox and Opera work fine with Hotmail - especially Opera is very fast.
    In addition, Safari and Gmail does not work with Attachments, but otherwise Gmail is OK.
    I suspect I have to wait for a Safari fix because in my case I do not wish to abandon Hotmail, and Safari is a given. I would think that Safari would want to stay competitive with the two biggies, Hotmail and Gmail, which must have large numbers of users.
    I certainly would appreciate any other suggested fixes.
