Issue with viewing website in internet explorer

Hello. I created a website in dreamweaver using rollover images for the links. When I load the webpage in the firefox, google, or opera browsers it loads fine, however when I load it in internet explorer I get an "allow activex" message. When I tried to view it on my tablet in google it loaded fine, but when I tried to load it in my tablet using internet explorer it didn't show any links at all and than it crashed the browser. What can cause this and how can I fix it? is there a better way to create rollover images that I'm not aware of? I tried to use CSS code in the stylesheet to make rollover images, but couldn't figure out how to do that.
Thanks,
Mike Irvan

Any server you have access to would work fine, you just upload to a temporary folder, like TEST, then delete it after the problem is found.
However, if you're not online yet, and having issue with IE, it's very likely you just need to drop IE's security settings to allow it to display local file attachments correctly (yeah, don't ask, it's a Microsoft thing).
Go into IE and choose Tools > Internet Options > Security and drop the scrubber bar down a notch or two, restart and try again.
When the site is uploaded to an actual server, that error won't come up because all files are coming from the same remote source (Microsoft, it doesn't have to make sense®)
You can do a search online to get more info on customizing the settings manually, somehting like this page will come up if you search allow blocked local files: IE 10 is blocking javascript on local html files - Microsoft Community

/* ~~ These are the columns for the layout. ~~
1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the divs. The elements within these divs have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the div itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the div and place a second div within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design.
2) No margin has been given to the columns since they are all floated. If you must add margin, avoid placing it on the side you're floating toward (for example: a right margin on a div set to float right). Many times, padding can be used instead. For divs where this rule must be broken, you should add a "display:inline" declaration to the div's rule to tame a bug where some versions of Internet Explorer double the margin.
3) Since classes can be used multiple times in a document (and an element can also have multiple classes applied), the columns have been assigned class names instead of IDs. For example, two sidebar divs could be stacked if necessary. These can very easily be changed to IDs if that's your preference, as long as you'll only be using them once per document.
4) If you prefer your nav on the right instead of the left, simply float these columns the opposite direction (all right instead of all left) and they'll render in reverse order. There's no need to move the divs around in the HTML source.

A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer (IE9) to close and reopen the tab

I have IE9 (using 32-bit version) installed on a relatively new laptop with Windows 7 64-bit. Up until last weekend IE9 worked fine and Flash Player worked fine too.
At the weekend a webpage asked for Flash Player to be updated - which I did. Ever since then whenever I go to a webpage needing Flash Player I get the message "A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen the tab". This happens twice and then an IE9 error page.
I have read the discussions in here about the problems with Flash Player 10.3 and have tried the various solutions. I have updated to 10.3.181.16 having tried 15 and 14 previously. Same problem.
I have reset IE9. Same problem.
I have disabled all add-ons which stops the problem. If I enable just the Flash Player add-on then the problem recurs. Since there are so many webpages that use Flash I do not want to run my browser without this add-on running.
If I enable the add-on and run IE9 using software rendering instead of GPU rendering then I don't get the problem. However, this isn't exactly making the best use of the resources on my laptop.
This may well all be related to the 10.3 problems but no one seems to have mentioned having a problem with tabs closing and reopening so I thought I would post on here to check.
Any suggestions for how to solve this (other than using software rendering)?

Thanks again for your reply. I appreciate the time you have taken to respond.
I think, however, you misunderstand the problem. IE9 does not reopen the tabs on just one website - it is doing this on every website that needs Flash Player. Therefore, running in Compatibility mode is not an option. In fact, because IE9 reopens the tabs so quickly and then ends up with an error page, I cannot even click the Compatibility button anyway.
I could use ActiveX filtering - true. All that this means is that Flash does not play on any of the websites. When I want to re-enable ActiveX for a particular website where I need to see the Flash Player item, this just triggers the error.
This problem also happened on .14, .15 and well as the current .16 version. It did not happen with the previous version of Flash Player that I had on the system (version 10.2 I think).
The fact is that either Flash Player or IE9 or both is/are broken. The two choices I am still left with are:
1. Use software rendering (which contradicts the latest advertisements for IE9 about unleashing the power of IE)
2. Use another browser - I have no problems with either Firefox or Chrome

Did Adobe Acrobat/reader stop providing browser integrated PDF viewing(addin) for Internet Explorer?

Did Adobe acrobat and reader stop providing browser integrated PDF viewing capability for Internet Explorer?
Hi, I have been trying to view PDF's directly on my browser (Internet Explorer 9). We used to be able to have this available. To be honest last configuration that did work was Internet Explorer 8 with Adobe Acrobat 7. But I recently tried with Intenet Explorer 9 with Adobe Acrobat X and did not work as expected (I tried to activate the add in for Adobe but the adobe addin for PDF did not show up) I have the following questions:
1) Do you still provide PDF's viewing capabilties on Internet Explorer?
2) If yes: Is there a propper Add-in we (users) are able to install for Internet Explorer?
3) if yes: Do we require to have Adobe Acrobat to have this capability? (this was my experience with IE8 and Adobe Acrobat 7)
Additional Info:
There seems to be an addin for Chrome wich works as expected (opens PDF in browser) to this current date. This does not happen on IE.
Thanks in advance.

Are you using the 64-bit edition of Internet Explorer?
The Adobe Reader/Acrobat plugin is 32-bit, and will not work on a 64-bit browser.

Major Issues with views in A3

I am having some major issues with views in A3.
If you look at my screenshot I am in the Browser;GRID view, however many of my images are out of view to the right (should be 26). There is no way to see them or select them. Also note that there is no SIZE control on the bottom right!
If i view it in LIST mode, all my images show up. If I go to FULL SCREEN everything works like it is suppose to. It just happens in

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

If I go into split view, I do not get any scroll bars so there is no way of viewing all my images.

Captivate 8 - How to change to producing "project.json" file instead of a "project.txt" file? Having issues with viewing published projects due to this.

Captivate 8 - How to change to producing "project.json" file instead of a "project.txt" file? Having issues with viewing published projects due to this. Would be thankful fo rany/all advice.

I'm having the same issue. I've been able to work around it by opening the txt file and copying the contents. Then I open a new file in Sublime Text 2, paste the contents and save the new file as "project.json". It seems to work, but it'd been nice if I didn't have to do this everytime I publish a new project.

I've downloaded quicktime but every time I try to play a video on the apple website using internet explorer it asks me to download quicktime. If I use safari it works fine. Any suggestions

I've downloaded quicktime but every time I try to play a video on the apple website using internet explorer it asks me to download quicktime again yet if I'm safari it plays fine. Any suggestions?

That sounds like IE wants you to install the QuickTime ActiveX control.
Go back to the page you're getting the message on. At the bottom of the screen, can you see a long rectangular box asking you to allow/install something? (Sorry, it's been a while since I've seen the box in question, so I can't recall the precise wording.)
If so, allow/OK in that box. After the ActiveX control has gone in, can you see the videos in IE?

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.
https://www.icloud.com/photostream/#A2532ODWsAl87
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,
M

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.
Thank you,
Best regards

Firefox w/ not open forms from websites. Internet Explorer had no problem. Re-installed FF with no resolution.

Firefox will not open forms (i.e. registration forms, class schedule, flyer, etc.) on certain websites. Updated Adobe Reader and Re-installed and updated FF. Still will not open the forms. Tried Internet Explorer with no problem at all. Tried FF on a different computer w/ no problem. Help please?

I also have this problem. I cannot open links from a discussion board I frequent nor can I open links from my email. Also after opening my email, I cannot go to any other sites except my home page. I can then go no where else.
When I close Firefox and try to reopen it, it does nothing! I have to bring up the Task Manager and end the Firefox process before I can get back in.
To the best of my knowledge, this problem started with the new update to Ver. 3.6.9. I am running Windows XP Media Center 2005

Problem with af:showPrintablePageBehavior and Internet Explorer

Hi, I am using JDeveloper 11.1.2.1.0.
I have a table with the iterators Range size = -1 and the tables AutoHeightRows and FetchSize set to estimatedRowCount.
I have added a commandButton with af:showPrintablePageBehavior to the page.
The table I am printing generates 4 pages in Firefox, Chrome and Safari. In Internet Explorer 8 and 9 I only get 1 page. (The metadata on the page also say page 1 of 1. )
Unfortunately we have some customers that use Internet Explorer, so how do I make this work for them?
All data is viewed at the printable page in IE, but when printed there is only 1 page.
Regards,
Thomas H.

Hi,
not sure this is an issue with the showPrintablePageBehavior if IE shows all data in the browser after using this behavior. The print functionality is owned by the browser and obviously it doesn't get to all of the page content (which I think is out of the ADF Faces scope). You may try and file a Service Request with customer support for them to have a look. However, if the showPrintablePageBehavior properly displays the data, then I am not sure what we can do to make the browser native print functionality working

Issue with Siteground "Website Wizard" estore & PayPal Screen

We currently run a non-proft musical group (community orchestra) website on Siteground. We use the "Website Wizard" function, which lets you create and edit a website easily with canned pages using any web browser. No need to use Joomla, etc. As an option, you can use an ecommerce service such a PayPal with the "estore" page within the Wizard.
For some reason, the PayPal screen which ties to our PayPal account does not come up when our audience members use Safari to try to buy concert tickets, but the other mainstream browsers work OK (Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome for instance) with a PC or Android device.
Using my iPad, I downloaded many other browsers such as Firefox and Chrome (and others), but even they won't work on it. It is as if Safari still does certain web browser functions. The upshot is that none of our audience can use iPads, iPhones, or Macs to buy concert tickets. I am guessing that a Mac would work with another browser, but I haven't been able to test that.
Siteground tech support recently told me that the Website Wizard function will not be updated to fix the issue, so I am wondering if Safari itself can be tweaked to allow the PayPal page to come up when it is supposed to? Since the Wizard does everything for us it is all "backend" with no coding on our part. We simply select PayPal as an option for the estore and put in the PayPal account name and it does the rest - most of the time.
I am willing to work with the Safari developers to resolve the issue. We'd like to be able to keep the current Siteground account and Website Wizard setup for ease of editing our site (anyone can do it), and we'd also like our audience to be able to use their slick Apple devices to easily order concert tickets. Thanks in advance.

I can have a look at doing a direct link, but the Siteground "Website Wizard" estore function can be used to gather delivery information such as "Will Call" or sending the purchased tickets via US Mail. The estore function also sends a nice confirmation email to the audience member. Maybe PayPal would have a similar option for users with a simple direct link, so I need to look into that I guess.

Trouble opening website via Internet Explorer on PC

Hi there, I have recently published two websites with iWeb, both of which open and run superbly in Safari on the Mac but when you try and open them on Internet Explorer on a PC only the top of the page will download and the rest of the site is invisible. Does anyone know why this is? I am using iWeb version 1.1.2 and have created both sites on my iMac which is running OS X 10.4.9 if this helps?
I hope someone out there can help? I can give you the website addresses if you need further info?

Due to my customer's most common setup I had to address these IE6 issues as well. Some background may illustrate the problems. Not only has IE6 difficulties with .png, but as well for example with lists (in case you use them, they are an undocumented feature of iWeb and somehat buggy), and more. To solve some of the .png issues iWeb spends some code utilizing "Active Script". That drives IE6 to render the page almost completely, and then the script will fix some of the ugly behavior. You can check that by your elements to navigate on top of your pages (these unfortunatley become .png) within IE6, or with the buttons to start a slideshow.
What I found on your first page: Move the cursor over it, it turns to be a senstive area to start the user's mail program to send a mail to info@... - try to remove that first.
Even more, there are a lot of setups of IE6 where "Active Script" is forbidden (in banks, insurances companies etc.). Ever tried to force a large organizition to migrate to IE7? Or to allow Active Script, let's say for 30.000 users? You'll get the impact...
So here is what I did to obtain some compatibility with IE6:
Installed IE6 on Paralles.
Switched "Active Script" to "Never".
Now you can check what is going on
In my pages:
Reengineered every element to navigate manually - no iWeb automatism, switched them all to off with iWeb's inspector
Reconstructed every picture to the size they should be /outside/ of iWeb, using Graphics Converter
Removed every frame from all text elements in iWeb
Switched to web and windows compatible fonts (e.g. Courier to Courier New)
Checked every page to contain plain text instead of graphic - click into the rendered page and try to drag: Does the the whole block move? Then you are on the wrong way
Removed every formatting attribute from the text: Alignment, Highth etc.
The only element I couldn't cover is the button for the slideshow - but I've read somewhere else that you can define an object and associate that with a link directly to the script on your server which iWeb puts there. But of course that does not help in case where your favorite visitors are cut off from using Active Script completely.
Good Luck!
