IE7 problem displaying page background correctly

Has anyone noticed that when one uses a "Tinted Image Fill" for a page background, Internet Explorer 7 will move the left margin of the page background to the left such that the page does not display properly (this was not a problem in IE6). Other images on the page however do display properly, and if one of these other images was right up against the left margin of the page, it actually looks like it extends off the page. Here's an example (notice how the top image with the logo and name seem to extend beyond the left margin):
http://web.mac.com/rkuhnhenn/iWeb/Images/ie7clip1.jpg
The link below is how the page should properly display; it is also in IE7 after I found a "fix" by deleting this 2nd line of code in the html:

http://web.mac.com/rkuhnhenn/iWeb/Images/ie7clip2.jpg
My question is does anyone know if there is a problem with deleting that line of code? I've not noticed any problems with other web browsers either with or without that line of code. I'll let MicroSoft know about this too, as if they'll care!
Thanks,

I've seen this reported, not sure if it was here or not, but that's some strange behavior! I'd think a happier solution would be to render the tinted image fill as a plain old .jpg. That way you won't have to remove any lines from your code.
If you have a regular image, does it also exhibit this behavior?

Problems displaying a pdf correctly (both with preview and adobe reader)

Hey guys,
I've been having problems with displaying lecture notes (pdf files) correctly. It doesn't matter if I use preview or adobe reader.
Can anyone please help me out?
thanks a lot in advance,
Simon

Hi there,
I have a very similar problem: a number of pdf files that I can see perfectly well in Safari/GoogleChrome do NOT show correctly in Preview or ANY iPad app I have (Notability, Adobe, PDF Expertm iAnnotate, Dropbox etc.).
The problem is that punctuation -- with the expection of periods or bolded text -- does not show properly. For example, commas and quotation marks to not show, and some numbers to not show.
Moreover, once I have annotated/viewed the problematic file on the IPad and resync to dropbox to view on Mac vis Adobe (which I do with most pdf files with no problems), I get an error message upon reopening the pdf file saying "Cannot extract the embedded font 'FAFWQV+--unknown-2--'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." (the 'quoted' text changes each time). When opening in Preview, no error message appears, though the fole is still lacking punctuation etc.
Here is a link to one problematic pdf: http://niis.cass.cn/upload/2012/12/d20121201200145301.pdf
NB: the file is in Mandarin, however I can successfully open/edit/annotate/sync other pdfs using Mandarin font so I'm not sure if the language is related to the problem.
I would be extremely grateful for some help with this please!
Thanks!

Firefox does not display page information correctly

On the form on http://ppbm5.com/submission.html select a raid level of Raid 0 for the OS disk and select the Number of OS disk next. The only choices you see are 3, 4, 5 and 6. The same applies to the project disk question and the output disk question.
Using Chrome or Internet Explorer the number of disks shown to choose from are 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Firefox hides or forgets the option for 2 disks.
The form used shows up correctly in the Form Maker site, it shows up correctly in Dreamweaver, it shows up correctly in both Chrome and Internet Explorer.
My only conclusion is that this is a Firefox issue. What can be done to resolve this?
As it currently is, one can only tell visitors to only use the form with Chrome or IE.
PS. I tried with FF 4.0 beta 10 and the problem persists.
BUT, the strange thing is on two other machines, with FF 3.6.13 the problem does not occur, so something must have messed up my regular system to prevent the correct display of the page.
I tried disabling add-ons, extensions and plug-ins, but that did not help.

Did you use the same [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] for the test with 3.6.x and 4.0 ?
Looks like a problem with JavaScript (Ajax).
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
If you the Firefox 4 beta version with the same profile then you should create a new profile exclusively for the 4.0 beta version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch that profile.

Webi Page View Not Displaying Page Size Correctly.

Hi Everone,
I have an issue with one report where the page size sttings do not translate when viewed in HTML Page View.
Figure one is the report as seen in the editor - as you can see the page is displayed correctly - A4 Portrait:
And, when the report is viewed in PDF mode - again, no issues:
But when viewed in HTML page view - it blows out the width of the page:
Now this report, as far as I can tell, is set up no differently than 6 others that are designed to be printed as PDF, all of which do not display this behaviour.
We design them to be printed as PDF but present them to the user in HTML Page view in order to allow injected JavaScript’s in the report to be run. This does not happen when you jump directly into PDF mode.
I have checked in design view and I don't have any wayward report elements pushing out the width and the PDF renders correctly which would not happen if there were hidden elements causing issues, it would render a bunch of blank pages.
So, I am at a loss. The page view is correct in edit mode and in PDV view mode but not in HTML page view. Has anyone else had this issue? I can’t work out why this happens only in one report when all the others work properly.
HELP!!!

Hi,
I think it may be <div class="html5gallery-viral-0"> (contains the social media buttons) // screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/AP/2013-08-01_1033.png
It's the only element that isn't in sync with the other elements on page, when compared to home.html for example.
Kind Regards,

Page Background Lost on Regions above Content Area for Some Pages

Hi - I am a iWeb novice, but not a total rookie on this kind of software...
I have a simple iWeb project that applies a gradient fill to the page background, and applies one of the gradient colors to the Browser background on every web page. I am using the "White" theme, and I have trouble with the "Photos" page template drawing Page backgrounds correctly. I have my content area set wider than the default to 1008 pixels to fill a 1024-wide display. I set my display area to 877 pixels high to coincide with the largest media dimension that I see with the inspector.
I looked here for previous discussions on this and failed to find anything. Maybe I missed a post...
Initially, most web pages load and display correctly the first time. One Photos web page, however, displays the Browser background - not the Page background above the centerline of the page name.
On several pages with a "Photos" template (but not all), the initial page is displayed correctly. But, when I click on a photo thumbnail and the page is revised to display the larger photo image in the content area, the Browser background is displayed in error above the content area, and the Page background displays correctly below the top of the content area.
I have looked for some consistent issue or characteristic that might let me predict when this problem occurs, but it ll looks rather random. It is repeatable, though - clearing caches and reloading the same page exposes the problem the same way a second time for the same page, in other words...
Is this a bug, or something subtle in placement or overlap of areas on the page that I haven't noticed? Anything to be careful with to avoid this problem?
Thanks anyone for any advice!
Brian

Hi Cyclosaurus and Apnewbie -
Thank you for your interest and replies. Here is a simple page that illustrates the problem I am having with a Page Background Gradient Fill on top of a Browser Background Solid Fill
http://web.mac.com/bccrowe/Troubleshooting/KyliesArt2.html
Here, I intend the page from the very top to the bottom of the defined content area to transition from pink to white as the eye moves left to right. The browser background is also pink to add some depth to the image - that's what you will see when the page loads.
Click on the child's drawing to present the image, and you should see the gradient disappear above the centerline of the second text box (above the comment area) when the page finished loading with the large drawing.
The Content area coincides precisely with the bottom of that second text box. I have tried to move the content area further below the text boxes so that they are not imtimate - no difference. I haven't tried to separate the text boxes, yet.
The two text boxes immediately above the content area are 45px x 630 px (18 pt text) and 30 px x 630 px (14 pt text) - they overlap by about 10 pix.
The content area that displays the thumbnail is 1008 px x 445 px (I thought that I set that at 877px...). I can try to set the content area to 877 px... Maybe this is the problem - maybe the Page Background shifts down to coincide with the bottom of the next page#2... Hmmm...
When you click on the thumbnail, the page#2 content area is 1008 px x 877 px.
In iWeb, this all looks the way I want it to.
Please diddle with the page, and ask me any new questions! I appreciate your insight and help. In reality, Kylie won't notice the background change, but my next objective is a corporate site - this child's site is my "training" site. iWeb is really pretty flexible and easy to use. If I there's a work-around or something to avoid, I can live with iWeb just fine.
Thanks again -
Brian

Firefox 3.6 does not display pages correctly

I recently upgraded to 3.5 beta 4 and it worked ok. 2 weeks ago it stopped displaying pages correctly. Uninsalling and reinstalling did not cure problem. I unistalled and installed v3.6. Same problem.
I could provide a screenshot of Mozilla home page. Backgrounds, table borders and some inages to not display. I have disabled all plugins and "load images automatically" is checked.
The images and background of this page do not display. I checked with K-meleon and IE.

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a (too) high value can cause issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Changing+fonts+and+colors
It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with overlapping text.
*Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
On other platforms instead of Tools > Options use:
*Mac: Firefox > Preferences
*Linux: Edit > Preferences
*Windows: Firefox > Options
<i>Press F10 if the menu bar is hidden on Windows and Linux or use "Firefox > Options/Preferences"</i>

Using WEB Output HTML Gallery and uploading using ftp upload the HTML page views correctly but images only display the alt tag?

Using WEB Output HTML Gallery and uploading using ftp upload the HTML page views correctly but images only display the alt tag in the browser window?

After a little investigation, I discovered that PNGs also do not render correctly in IE7 in similar circumstances.
I ended up using Levels in Photoshop to bring the output blacks up to "5", saved the images as PNGs, modified the HTML from .jpg to .png, and that seems to have covered up the problem well enough.
By the way, I did confirm that IE8 beta 2 renders the images correctly.

Acrobat 9 Pro: Message "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display page correctly.

Hi everyone,
I posted this in September: "Over the past week, I have received pdfs from 2 different graphic design contractors that do not open correctly in Acrobat 9 Pro. There is an error in the document and when I scroll to the page where the error is, I get: "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person hwo created the PDF document to correct the problem." I did this, and the contractor remade the pdf 3 times, and I still couldn't open it. This contractor is already using CS5. For the problem today, I haven't asked for it to be remade yet--decided to see if I could find out if anyone else is having the same problem. The second contractor is using CS4. The only thing that I have done differently at my end over the past week is upgrade CS4 to CS5. I already had Acrobat Pro 9 so I didn't update it when I updated my CS5 products. Should I have upgraded Acrobat 9 anyway? Somehow, it doesn't feel right that this is the problem. Any info on this would be appreciated."
I got one response from that posting, suggesting that the pdf was corrupted over email. That wasn't the problem.
What I didn't say above is that whenever I got an error message upon opening the pdf and clicked OK, I got another message: "Insufficient data for an image." I found that one or all of the images in the pdf were missing. Upon further investigation, the contractor and I found that sometimes the error message pointed to a specific font used--that being a Helvetica Bold font. Once we substituted it with a Helvetica Neue LT Std Adobe Opentype font, we no longer had an issue.
However, the problem rose it's ugly head today--what, 6 months later! I'm talking about 2 different pdfs this time.
For PDF#1, I got this error message about the font: "Cannot extract the embedded font 'JNAGNS+HelveticaNeueLTStd-Bd'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." When I click OK, I get another: "Insufficient data for an image." The images don't show up in the pdf. What I don't understand about this pdf is that this is one of those that was fixed in September. The only changes made in the document was to paragraph text--none to the text in the images. When I opened the revised pdf today, I am getting the same message again. This makes no sense.
I returned to my September blog to see if any further advice had been posted, but nada--not even anything from Adobe about it. I goggled until I found where someone suggested running a "Report PDF syntax issues" analysis in Preflight. I did that and even though the analysis showed the pdf passed, I checked the fonts in the list and saw that the one pointed to in the error message showed that a long list of glyphs were missing on both pages of the pdf. I have asked my contractor to replace her font with a new one, in case it has gotten corrupted. Haven't a new pdf to open yet.
Then when I opened PDF#2, I got the message: "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person hwo created the PDF document to correct the problem." When I ran the "Report PDF syntax issues" analysis in Preflight, I found got this warning: "Invalid operand(s) for operator (1 match on 1 page)". I clicked through and under "Page Description Errors/Invalid operand(s) for operator", it identifies Operator Name, Stream State, Operators Read, and Traversal Path. Under "Trigger Values" is says "Invalid operand(s) for operator: is true". None of this means a thing to me so I can't figure out what the problem is.
Let me say this: Both the contractor and I are using CS5 and Acrobat Pro 9, on Lion. If it helps, the contractor also sent one of the problem pdfs back in September to my boss who is running Acrobat Pro 9 on Windows 7 and she got the same messages.
Does anyone out there have a suggestion for us? PLEASE HELP!!!!

Thanks to all for posting suggestions. As it turned out, the contractor who was having a problem reinstalled Acrobat 9. She works from home and is emailing the pdfs to me. Things were running smoothly until this past week, when the problem started again. Whenever I get a pdf that won't open properly or print, I asked her to zip it and it is no longer a problem. Last week, I had the same problem start with a contractor in Florida and she also zips the pdf when there is a problem. Now I am thinking the problem might be at my end. I wonder if something is happening to them when they come through our firewall at work. I asked IT about it before but they didn't have a clue what the problem might be. Right now, zipping is the answer...who knows how long that will continue to work.

Ibooks author, how do I get the standard book pages background into my document. I have published one book so far which does not display with a book pages background or options for font size.

ibooks author, how do I get the standard book pages background into my document. I have published one book so far which does not display with a book pages background or options for font size.

No on the book title, no problem there.
The issue is: my book pages appear as on white paper, no background that resembles a open book and also no option to change fonts. The book was created in iBooks author, there was a problem going with the "Publish" menu route so I was instructed my Apple to "export" the file and submit that. I think that's the problem after reading that iBooks author is a hybrid epub file.
Thanks for getting back to me.

Tell us what the problems are.

PHP needs to be configured with a web server, such as Apache
or IIS.
ColdFusion is also a webserver, but as far as I know, it
cannot be
configured to serve PHP pages.
> date is:
<?php echo Hello ?>
The only thing that would display is an error message. Hello
needs to be
enclosed in quotes:
<?php echo 'Hello'; ?>

've recently upgraded to FireFox v22.0. Originally, a legacy XBAP I use always opened correctly in FireFox and had no problems displaying or running. As of v22.

I've recently upgraded to FireFox 22. Originally, a legacy XBAP I use always opened correctly in FireFox and had no problems displaying or running. As of 22, it won't even attempt to download the application, let alone try and display it.
I have the windows Presentation Foundation 3.5.30729.1 installed, which is the same version I have been using in older versions.
Can anyone shed some light on any changes that would have effected this?

Hi, I have a similar problem. I did attempt the *.rdf fix on a test system, but it didn't work (em:maxVersion was already 22).
We got about inflow of phone calls from our clients experiencing the problem mentioned above from the 2nd of July onwards... and more are phoning in.
All the complaints come from clients (+- 10 so far and rising in number) using Firefox v22 (we have checked), and all of them have said that it was working previously.
We downgraded one of the clients to an older version of Firefox, and it worked again. So far we are telling our clients to downgrade until a fix comes out, or use Internet Explorer (*blush*)

Display Problems - Web Pages

Hi
Forgive me - I am a 'PC' girl and am just learning about Macs - please bear with me!
I have just bought an iMac G4 256MB 800MHz with a 15 inch flat screen - running OS X 10.2.8 though I have Tiger to load onto it. Its just used in my business for Word Processing and internet access.
I am using Safari and am having trouble with some web sites page displays which work fine on my PC through IE. Images cover tabs I need to use etc. almost as if the page is too small for the content on it.
Can anyone advise me? Do I need to alter settings or something?
Many thanks in advance.
Nicky

That may be exactly what's happening. Safari (and everything in OS X) has "issues"
with font sizes. When you run into a 'problem' web page, try reducing the font size,
either with "COMMAND -" (minus sign) or with *View > Make Text Smaller*.
I don't know which Safari version you're running, but there may also be a preference
setting for "+Never use font sizes smaller than <size>+" if <size> is set too large,
you'll encounter 'problem pages' more frequently.

Hello Anubha,
I am having a similar problem on my machine. I was using Word 2008 and I created a PDF inside Word.
I am opening the file on the system itself and I am running Windows 8.1. I am using Version 11 of Reader.
When the PDF I created (my resume) attempts to open, it says: cannot find or create the file Times, Bold. Some characters may not display or print correctly.
However, the entire Reader keeps freezing and will not allow me to open or test print the document. Also, it is not displaying any of the Bold Times New Roman Print. Can you please help? Thanks.

Problems displaying and editing long documents on small pages sizes

Problems displaying and editing long documents on small page sizes
I read this problem have called with the helpdesk they didn't know the solution but how can I find the solution:
In Pages 09, I can't scroll down andand click on text to edit it!! All the mouse will do is draw gray transparentboxes and not place the cursor in the text. Again, like the display problem, itdoesn't happen at the beginning of the doc, but starts showing up around 50 to60 pages in ... I can't select text at the bottom of pages ... at 50 pages, thecursor can be clicked into anyplace on a page. Further and further down, the unselectablearea on any particular page creeps up from the bottom line by line: at 175pages in the unselectable area is 12 lines high; at 360 pages in theunselectable area is 25 lines high. and finally at around 440 pages down, Icannot place the cursor anywhere on any page all the way to the end of thedocument.
I have Page versie 4.1

What you get was described here several times.
As we are end users like you, we can't change the app behavior.
Under 10.6.8 you have the buttons allowing you to scroll one line up or one line down.
Under Lion they are no longer available.
