IE7 issue with website

I developed my own website in Dreamweaver CS4 checking browser compatibility and validated all pages for both IE and Firefox. I uploaded my files to my Yahoo hosting account and now that it is live I can not view my home page (index.html) and one other page with IE7 - but all pages are viewable with Firefox. I verified that all my pages have the same header information and can't figure out why only these 2 pages are having an issue. When they load in IE I get a blank white screen with 'done' listed on the bottom left of the browser and not showing any errors.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

As a Yahoo-hosted site, it will never completely validate due to the code Yahoo inserts after the </html> tag on every page. The validator will help find errors on the rest of the pages, though.
But this particular problem will not be caught by the validator. You have an opening HTML comment in one of your style elements that does not have a matching closing HTML comment. Since using HTML comments inside embedded stylesheets hasn't been need since - oh, what NS 4?, just delete it.
Change this:

  • IE7 issue with Thumbnails div & Overflow

    this has to do with layout of the the gallery page and an IE7
    CSS issue.
    I was playing with the Photo gallery demo and decided to
    resize the thumbnails div to get different shape and found an issue
    with IE7 and the overflow. if the tumbnail div height is set to say
    100px, and set overflow:auto; it makes sense that the thumbnails in
    the bottom 3 rows would not be visible unless you scrolled the div.
    well it works fine in Firefox but IE draws thumbnails right
    over the height boundry and on into the next div below. I thought
    IE7 was supposed to fix the CSS hacks needed.
    what is the hack to fix this?

    It could be a function of how the script is written and
    changes being
    made at the object-level. Rather than set position to
    relative, you
    might try using the proprietary Microsoft zoom property to
    give the
    naughty container layout.
    your-container {zoom: 1;}
    If that doesn't work, then you can resort to position:
    relative.

  • Safari or IPhone issue with Website ..

    Hey guys, .. question..
    I have a Win 2003 Server and setup IIS. I've designed a website. Firast I had many *.png and a wallpaper with a size of 500K. I had issues with getting the page loaded, which mean that 2 images were loaded and the rest not. now i reduced each pictures size down to 5K. So the web site will load really quick now.
    When I go to my work computer i can access my site without any issues. but the IPhone try to load but then after 5-10 minutes it don't show anything. I connected to EDGE first and then to another WIFI spot to see if it's the connection speed.
    So my question, SAFARI on the IPhone do show lots of websites like ESPN or CNN which have a bigger data size but it can't show a simply site that i've made.
    what could be the issue? I testd it just now from y work system and it pops up without issues, i also did a cold bootup (IPhone)

    flavor4real,
    To help narrow it down some, does the page load with Safari beta for Windows on your computer?
    Does the page get any errors with tools for validating the HTML of the page? Such as:
    http://validator.w3.org/
    Have you verified your links to the images are not pointing to your local hard drive, instead of using a URL?
    Hope this helps,
    Nathan C.

  • Issue with website Storage Settings panel

    Hi
    I have an issue with the Website Storage Settings panel. I want to increase the storage settings but the bar always resets when I reload the page.
    I only seemed to have this issue after I updated to the latest software. Any help?

    You don't specify your operating system.  On Windows, try deleting the 'Flash Player' folders in %APPDATA%\Adobe and %APDATA%\Macromedia
    No browser window must be active when you do that.

  • Weird issue with website(/s?)

    I guess this relates to networking?
    Anyway, for some arcane reason DeviantART stopped working, cleared cache, disabled all extensions, flushed history, flushed cookies, did everything, still nothing.
    installed midori and firefox, still not working.
    so I decided to contact their help desk, which just proved to be an utter waste of time (as expected)
    here's a video demonstrating the issue, it's about 5 minutes long and shows extensive testing with all three mentioned browsers (two at stock settings, mind you) and it shows me re-disabling all extensions and clearing everything but saved passwords and form autofill data in chrome.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eKQRWSL3pc
    I'm at loss, it's been over a week now and I've tried everything and can't find even a hint as to what causes it.
    at the time of recording the video I was running kernel 3.15.5-1-ARCH, not I'm running 3.15.5-2-ARCH (if that matters), DE is Mate 1.8.1, chrome version 35.0.1916.153 (Official Build 274914), Firefox version 32 and midori whatever version is current.
    from what I can tell every other website works fine, no idea if other sites break since I don't visit too many websites.

    as for what stopped working means, the video explains it quite well.
    the dropdown menus don't work, the deviantWatch is broken and the menu items are unclickable (whenever I'm hovering over a menu I click after a while, then when nothing happens I click frantically to demonstrate it's not working).
    at first I assumed (and still do) that the issue was on their end as it only affects me but they more or less said (heavily paraphrased) "no, fuck you. we can't replicate it on ubuntu therefore it must be on your end"

  • Having issues with websites and videos

    At some point last week, my computer began having problems loading certain websites (I noticed it on about 3 different sites.)  The sites would load but not until after several minutes of loading.  My main issue is that I can't watch videos on other sites except YouTube.  YouTube videos work fine but when I try to watch videos from other sites, it's just a blank box. I'm not sure if these two are related but they both started around the same time. Here are the things I've tried:
    -Updated Flash
    -Updated Silverlight
    -Reset my browser
    -Tried other browsers
    -Tried logging on as a guest
    -Unplugged my router and modem (didn't have much hope for this but, it fixed a problem I was having with YouTube before)
    -Downloaded older version of Flash
    I tried searching around for solutions but, I haven't been able to find someone with this same problem.  Does anyone know what's going on? Thank you in advance.

    This issue is normally caused by the person that made the Video, it depends on what they used to create the video.
    Some users have had to download different players to eliminate this problem.
    Quicktime, Adobe's Flash Player,  and on and on.
    To eliminate this problem I suggest you download VLC Player and it will Play just about everything out there.

    I am almost poitive this will fix your problem and be sure you get the onefor Mac And make it your Default Player

  • Firefox issue with website and feed updating

    ''Problems:''
    I have been having this problem for a while. I provided links to pictures below.

    should be like this: http://i52.tinypic.com/2s8fddi.jpg

    Very strange.
    I had already cleared the recent history according to the instructions from Firefox. But they didn't specify/recommend to delete site preferences as well.
    So I only did cache/cookies. Now I just deleted the site preferences and it worked.
    thanks a lot for the help.

  • Explorer Issues with Website Adding White Background

    I am working on making simple cosmetic changes to a website I did not build. More complex job than I thought mostly because of trying to figure out the past designer's coding. I have a basic knowledge and was able to make the needed changes. Except that in Explorer there are white boxes behind my header links. The background used to be white with blue text, I have switched them. Works fine in Chrome, Firefox and Safari.
    The website is: iflygillette.com
    Anyone have an idea on how to fix this? You can see the screen shoot below. Our slideshow of banner ads also stops after one loop on Explorer. I've been reading through code until I'm cross-eyed. Not sure. Thank you!

    Your banner is a Flash animation which cannot be viewed by iPhones, iPads, iTouch, Androids or any other browser/device that does not have Flash player. 
    You may want to change that to a jQuery rotating banner.  For examples, look at jQuery Cycle2 or Wow Slider.
    In your SpryMenu.css file towards the bottom, there are hacks for older IE browsers.  Currently, your background color is set to white.  Change that value.  Save and upload the style sheet to your server.
    /* HACK FOR IE: to stabilize appearance of menu items; the slash in float is to keep IE 5.0 from parsing */

  • HT4972 Issues with Website viewing in Safari

    I am currently a college student and the online learning site we use will not fully load in Safari, so I downloaded Google Chrome and it still says that it is using Safari to open it instead of Chrome. What do I need to do to change this?

    - What type of site is it?
    - Could be that the site is looking for a desktop browser. There are some browsers for the iPad where you can select the browser to identify itself as a desktop browser. Chrome or Safari are one of those and I do not remember which ones allow that.
    - When you go to the site on a desktops does the site say anything about requirements?

  • Issue with site load time when exported as HTML. Addressed?

    Has the issue with website load time been addressed?
    I believe the site attempts to load the entire image content at the initial visit - meaning any galleries with numerous pictures are all included when first getting to the site. This is causing a HUGE increase in load time. I was told when I last brought it up that it was an apparent issue that needed to be addressed.
    Any type of resolution coming?
    Site for reference: www.dkrecollection.com

    Major updates of Muse are targeted to release roughly every quarter. The 1.0 release was in mid-May. The 2.0 release was in mid-August. A fundamental change to image loading would only appear as part of a major update due to the engineering and testing efforts required.
    As provided in your previous thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/4659347#4659347 the only workaround until then is to reduce the number of images in the slideshow.

    Hello, Im new to this website. Im having issues with my Macbook. I have the old 2009 model Macbook and it is our schools macbook. The school just upgraded these MacBooks to OSX Mavericks and when i try to open Minecraft it won't let me. It says no jdk installed. I also try to install Java SE runtime but half way through the Software Update it says cant download software because of network problem but I'm connected to the internet and i can browse stuff just fine. Can any one help with my problems. P.S. I don't know the administrator password or stuff like that. And yes we are allowed to play games and stuff on these laptops but only at home not at school so don't tell me i need to focus on school and not games. 

    Since you updated the operating system, it is probably Minecraft is missing certain files that ware remove or are not longer comparable with the new version of the OSX. what I recommend, is to check is there is an update for Minecraft and install that. If there is not update available, probably the best thing will be reinstalling Minecraft. Hope this will help you.

    I have an older version of Firefox 3.6.6 I believe I am having an issue with one of the websites I sign into. Is there any way to update to the newest version. Without losing all my bookmarks and saved pass words?

    Hello johngervais, the latest firefox version is 26.0 (today 4 Jan 2014).
    note that [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-no-longer-works-some-versions-windows-xp Firefox no longer works with some versions of Windows XP], if you have '''xp with sp2 and above''' you can update to latest version, see : [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/26.0/system-requirements/ Firefox 26 System Requirements]
    if you are able to update to latest version then see : [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/common-questions-after-upgrading-firefox-36 Common questions after upgrading from Firefox 3.6]

  • Oracle JInitiator issue with Firefox 3 and IE7 - not working!

    Hi,
    I'm accessing the oracle apps server through VPN using a Windows Vista system running Firefox 3 and IE 7. I'm able to log on and access the self service pages correctly. But I'm unable to access the form based pages. If I use the JInitiator 1.3.1.21, both browsers crash (though Firefox says missing plugin and mentions this version only). On installing higher versions of the plugin (28, 30), IE 7 keeps giving the message "installing components...oajinit.exe" and there is no more progress.
    Could anyone please let me know what could be the issue and how to resolve it.
    Thanks in advance!

    As I don't have access to metalink yet, can you tell me for my configuration what is certified and what browser I should use? I already mentioned that my OS is Vista and I have IE7. I realise that IE6 cannot run on Vista and now Firefox 3 cannot be used. So what JInitiator should I use for IE 7?The currently supported desktops for Release 11i include:
    - Win2K / WinXP + IE6 / Firefox 2.x
    - WinXP + IE7 / Firefox 2.x
    - Mac OS X v10.3.9 + Safari 1.3 and higher
    - Mac OS X v10.4.7 + Safari 2.0 and higher
    - Vista desktop clients running the native JRE plug-in on IE 7 ***
    *** Oracle JInitiator Not Certified for Vista Desktops: Oracle JInitiator 1.3 will not be certified for Vista desktops. Jinitiator 1.3 is based on JDK 1.3. JDK 1.3 is not compatible with Vista. No new updates to JInitiator are planned for Vista.

  • Photo stream "public website" in Internet Explorer - photo thumbnail's are gray, individual photo view is fine. Tested from various computers. No issue with Firefox, Safari or Chrome.

    Dear All,
    Recently I have started to use Photo Stream available from iCloud on iPhone device. I have made “test” photo stream with several photos in and set to “public website” in order to share photos with my relatives.
    The issue is with Internet Explorer where list of photos (thumbnails) are shown in gray color. I can view photo one by one and slideshow also works fine.
    On other computers IE behaves the same way.

    No issue with photo list in thumbnails using Safari, Chrome or Firefox.
    Can someone help on this issue?
    It is very convenient to share photos via photo stream, but most of viewers by default has IE and many of them don’t have iCould account or apple device.
    Kind regards,

    Dear safari rss
    Indeed, you are right, I have updated IE to version 10 and no issue with page view.
    Solution woud be to update IE to version 10 (I have not tested IE9).
    However users using Windows XP can have highest IE version 8. IE9 or IE10 is not suported in XP.
    Unfortunatelly there are still many windows XP at my friends circle.
