Images displayed strangely in Firefox

So, I have this bizarre issue with firefox. Some images (but not all) get displayed with very strange colours.
For example:
And how this image should look:
This only occurs in firefox. I have tried removing the ~/.mozilla directory, to no effect. Does anyone know what might be causing this? I'm totally clueless.

LOL!
That's just about the weirdest solution I've heard in a while - and I mean weird in a funny sense :-)

Images displayed differently in Firefox

I have a Dreamweaver page that displays normally in IE. But when I open it in firefox, one of the elements is displayed differently. Specifically, I have some social media icons that are supposed to be displayed horizontally, and they are in IE. But when I open the same page in Firefox, it displays those same icons vertically. How can I correct that? Thanks.

HELP- Images displayed correctly in Firefox but not IE

I cannot figure out (I'm a newbie) how to set the code so
that the picture on my entry page looks the same in terms of
placement in IE and Firefox In Firefox, it's perfect but there is
empty space below the image in Internet Explorer. This is driving
me crazy!

Can we see the page so that we can see where the image is in
the code?
Sounds like a padding/margin problem.

W520 with Pantone X-Rite, Images display strangely

I have a W520 with the Pantone Color X-Rite calibrator. Ive run the calibration for all the different settings but whenever I view and image it has a tourquoise back ground but only in Windows Photo Viewer. I realize the work around is just use a different image viewer but I fear this is just a symptom of a bigger problem and want to make sure I resolve it.
Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks,
Matt

hey ThePriceIsWrong,
if it happens only with the Windows Photo Viewer, i would suggest getting in contact with microsoft about this.

Images are displayed wrong in firefox

Hello!
I am a photographer, uploading images in png to my gallery at deviantart.com. I noticed that the images are displayed wrongly in firefox - but in IE9 and Opera they are shown correctly. I have tried with different color management settings in about:config but none of that has solved the problem. I would like to know why it is that firefox can't show the colours correctly, like opera and IE?
If it's impossible to fix I will just simply have to stop using firefox which would be a shame when I have been using the browser for many years. The problem has not existed earlier.
Best regards

That image for instance. And I save them using Adobe RGB since thtat's the colour space I work in, but this has never been a problem before.

PS CS5 Image Display Differs From Used ICC Profile In Win 7

Hi,
on my Windows 7 Ultimate x64 machine, I just calibrated my Dell SP2309W monitor using an i1DisplayPro and basICColor 5, creating a ICC v2 profile (I am aware of the problems under Windows with ICC v4 profiles).
It created the ICC profile and applied it to be used by Windows. I double checked under COLOR MANAGEMENT that the new ICC profile is being used. Although I can see that the new ICC is being used (desktop appearance changes), there are a few issues I am experiencing:
(1.) Windows Photo Viewer
The thumbnails in Windpows Explorer look fine (they DO use the new ICC profile), when I double click a jpeg and open the image it DOES NOT use the new ICC profile. When I click the PLAY SLIDESHOW button (starting the slideshow) in the opened image in Windows Photo Viewer, the images DO use the new ICC profile.
(2.) Internet Browsers
All current internet browser (Firefox, IE, Safari and Chrome) DO use the new ICC profile and display the image correctly.
(3.) Photoshop CS 5
When I open the same image - that Windows Photo Viewer does not correctly displays (according to the new ICC profile) - in Photoshop CS5, I get the same image display that Windows Photo Viewer gives me (when not thumbnail or not in slideshow mode) - it appears to be the sRGB display.
My color settings in PS CS5 are: North America General Purpose 2 > sRGB IEC 61966-2.1.
When I go to View > Proof Setup > Monitor RGB I get the image display using the new ICC profile.
Why does the image look different in PS than my calibrated monitor should output ?
I was under the impression (please correct me if I am wrong), that the sole purpose for calibrating my monitor was to get a uniform display across (ICC aware) applications. Even when one applies different color spaces to a document in PS, I thought the output on my calibrated screen done by the graphic card should always be according to my calibration and the settings in the ICC profile being used.
What Am I doing wrong or what am I misunderstanding ?
Any help or input is appreciated !
Thanks.

Hello,
A note on monitor calibration: calibrating your monitor will not guarentee that every application will display color correctly, it's more of a step along the pipeline, and for the preview part of a color workflow it's the last step. Here's how color translation follows for an ICC workflow when previewing to a monitor:
Image Color Numbers > Document Tag or Workspace Profile > Monitor Profile
For non-color managed applications, if the original document is or isn't tagged with a color profile it will be translated directly to the monitor profile anyway. This is the equivalent in Photoshop of selecting "Monitor" in soft proofing. Selecting monitor in softproofing will bypass the tagged or workspace profile to translate colors directly through the monitor profile.
For most automatic color managed applications (like Firefox), the image will be translated through the tagged profile and then sent through the monitor profile. If the image is untagged or the profile is unrecognized, the colors get sent directly to the monitor profile.
For Photoshop, a tagged document will have its profile respected and then sent to the monitor. An untagged document will be assigned the workspace profile, which acts like a temporary document profile, and then gets sent to the monitor. This is often why users will notice Photoshop behaves differently from other applications. It's usually a case of the workspace coming into play. By default the workspace profile is set to sRGB. You can change this in Edit > Color Settings.
The purpose of the workspace is originally for printing workflows, as a way of keeping consistant color translations when dealing with both tagged and untagged documents. For web output workflows it can be useful for viewing everything through sRGB, which is typical of the average monitor output (not so with newer wide-gamut monitors, another source of confusion...) combined with the fact that originally most web browsers were not color managed. Hence viewing everything through sRGB is pretty close to what most monitors see and what untagged/unmanaged docs will look like.
Monitor calibration is useful only because it brings your monitor output to a "known state". In traditional workflows the monitor was always a middle-man, a preview device which was useful for getting an idea of what the printed output would look like before you print it. Since print colorspaces are often smaller than display spaces, it's feasible and useful to narrow down the monitor/display space and calibrate it to a known state, so that even if it doesn't totally match the print, you'll get used to its differences/limitations and they'll be consistent so long as the calibration is maintained.
For web output, your final output is often another user's computer monitor, which can have any form of behavior (most standard monitors are pretty close to sRGB, or use sRGB as an operating system workspace (default monitor profile). Wide gamuts behave differently, but I'm not sure if there's a particular ICC space that they closely match, or if different wide-gamuts are even that close to each other in their display color spaces.
Hope this helps!

Can I make an image display instead of flash slideshow on explorer with high security?

I am a total flash beginner. I created a simple flash slideshow that I want to appear on my website. It works fine in firefox., but when viewed in explorer with high security, nothing displays unless the viewer specifically allows it. The slideshow is very prominent, and the site looks very bad when only an x shows up. Is it possible to have a static image display in place of the slideshow, and then have the slideshow start if the viewer allows it? Is there any other way to get around this?
Thank you for any assistance.
EJ

Have you tested it with IE online or only locally? Locally IE will usually prohibit displaying Flash content.

Sudden Display issues in Firefox from Dreamweaver-built pages

Hi, first time posting and a novice at Dreamweaver and web design so please bare with me.
I'm an IT administrator for a small charity company and they decided to ask me to build them a website, I bought Dreamweaver in University and had a small try with it but never really used it since.
Now I'm no web designer but I'm trying the best I can, I managed to make a few preliminary pages for use and found they displayed correctly in most browsers apart from IE and Opera.
But Suddenly today - after no editing or alterations since friday (and it displayed fine yesterday on tuesday), it started experiencing the same issues in Firefox this morning for no apparent reason. I assumed that it would be a problem with Firefox but when trying to sign up to Firefox help I meet an "Access Denied" page after clicking to sign up. Now I know there's no point in searching their forums for that issue because of course, how can someone complain they have the problem when the fact they can't get on the forums to post is what's preventing the post in the first place?
I googled both of those issues and turned up nothing, which led me here.
The "Access Denied" at signup issue is obviously not what I'm seeking for here though, but would like to know if anyone else has experienced the issue with the formatting suddenly displaying incorrectly in browsers when they worked fine before?
Like I said, I'm a complete novice at web design and dreamweaver so feel free to tell me the coding in the website is pants, I know it is but it does (did!) the job in most browsers.
Any help at all would be appreciated.

My advice, although negative, would be to stay clear unless you are confident and capable of using html and css. Dreamweaver won't do the job for you and you will be biting off more than you can chew.
Having said that I've made the necessary changes so that your page will work in all browers. Just copy the whole html code and css below, paste into a new Dreamweaver document and save to your site root folder.
Do not mix measurements i.e., width 43em, padding 15px etc. I would advise staying with px based measurements as measurements are critical to if the site works or not. I don't know what 43em + 15px makes but I do know what 170px + 15px makes. I have changed the width of the containers in your code to px.

Hover menu buttons not displaying correctly in Firefox

Hello,
I have a small problem with firefox. It does not seem to
display the images correctly. In firefox the buttons are pushed
down and you can only see part of the image. In IE6 and IE7 it is
displayed fine.
here is the URL so you can take a look at it:
Page
Does anyone know what the problem might be?

Just drop a zoom:100% style on the link, and IE will get it
right.

Subtitles & other text not displaying properly safari & firefox

Hello
some text in Safari and Firefox is seriously degraded. I changed to Firefox because Safari was displaying wrongly, but Firefox has the same problem. See image:
I cannot use subtitles on BBC streamed movies either, and the timing of the movies on the bottom ribbon do not display either
I am using Lion 10.7.5
Is there a solution for this problem?

Go back to old image display

I just updated to Firefox 11 and the new image display is awful. When I go to an image URL (like this http://www.google.com.br/images/srpr/logo3w.png ) it's displayed with a dark background. It would be better if the background was soft grey... but it's too dark!
Is there a way to use the old image display, with white background or changing the background color?

<strike>I don't think that you can use code in userContent.css to fix this</strike>.<br />
<strike>There is no selector possible to set the background-color for the body if there is only an img (body > img:only-child) on that page.<br />
Only a script would be able to accomplish that AFAIK.</strike>
It looks that I'm wrong about this.

Images display gibberish

Hi support -
I'm having issue with the way my Wordpress site is displaying images in Firefox.
http://dev.thecosmicpath.com/test/
Clicking on the image displays a page full of gibberish. I did some research and I saw your article about properly configuring MIME types but I can't seem to get that to fix. I do have access to the htaccess file and added: AddType text/css .css line in, but that didn't seem to fix. Hoping you can help me out. Thank you!

That image is send as text/plain as you can see in Tools > Page Info > General.
So it is clearly a problem with the server configuration.
It works this way:
<pre><nowiki>data:text/html,<img src='http://dev.thecosmicpath.com/wp-content/uploads/Bs1r788CAAEi-xo1.jpg'>
</nowiki></pre>
Note that the thumbnail fails as well:

You would need AddType image/jpg .jpg

Imaq Image Display Control - Zoom tool - zoom factor changes slowly

Hi at all,
we have a strange behavior with the zoom factor of the Image Display Control in an Labview executable.
Ususally by clicking into the image with the zoom tool activated, the zoom factor changes from 1,2,4,8,16, ... ("x2")
Now we have one PC, where it changes from 1,2,3,4,5,... ("+1")
Has anyone an idea on which windows setting this behavior depends on? The PC runs with Windows XP SP3, the LV-Exe was built
with LabVIEW 8.5.1 and the Vision Development Module 8.5.0. Is there any regsitry setting where I can adjust the "click intensity" or
something like that? Or can I set a property of the image control to force a specific behavior?
Actually I have never seen this behavior before, I only know the half/double mode.
In the software the operator has to search for fiducials on PCBs what means he has to click several times into the image.
Changing in the Mode "+1" instead of "x2" is not acceptable for him.
Thanks for your help!
Stefan

Hello Stefan,
thank you for posting at the National Instruments forum. The "Zoom Behaviour" was changed due to customer requests. I totally agree with you, that it is not the best solution to click 24-times to get the desired region of interest.
I created a small example for LabVIEW 2010, which uses a property node and event structure, to perform the zoom programmatically.
Best regards
MarianO

Chinese characters are not displayed in the Firefox bookmarks

Chinese characters are not displayed in the Firefox bookmarks. The name looks like e.g. "??????? ???? cn.nytimes.com"
Chinese character of the site name is displayed ok in the head of the browser window and there is no problem reading chinese web content. I use Firefox Portable 11 /English from portableapps.com in Windows XP.
I googled and got some tips:
1) Set your browser to recognise Chinese language internet sites.
Windows users: Under "Tools - Options" on your browser's menu-bar add Chinese to the languages list.
- I did this.
2) Set your browser's "Character Set" or "Encoding" to UTF-8 (sometimes also called Universal Alphabet or Unicode).
Encoding settings can be changed under the "View" option in your browser's menu-bar.
- It was already set to UTF-8.
3) Windows users: If Chinese text still does not display correctly, East Asian language support may need to be enabled.
- This has been done when I installed Windows.
I still don't get any Chinese fonts in the bookmark names. I can edit the bookmark name with chinese characters and then save the bookmark, it works fine. But why does not Firefox recognize the characters when saving bookmarks? Help is appreciated.

No I didn't change anything deep beneath the hood. My problem didn't apply to the URL, but to the name of the link or bookmark header or whatever you would like to call it. (When hitting Ctrl + D there is a Name field). I only got ???????? instead of chinese characters in the name. Also for e.g. www.cntv.cn ...but maybe all China is not in the whitelist either. ;-) But anyway, this was not the real problem for me.
Apparently I was wrong as after a reboot of the computer it worked. The solution seemed to be to add Chinese to the language list. I don't know why it was not enough to restart Firefox?
Now I only have problems to show chinese characters in the name field of my external link manager... But I guess it is not an issue for Mozilla.
