Hi,
if you put IE in the searchbox you will find a lot of threads talking about IE issues. Basically it's all about "Internet Explorer does not follow the correct web standards as it should.". So it's an issue in IE and not iWeb. make sure people update their browsers and get a REAL browser like Firefox (or Safari).
Also look at this thread and the threads linked to in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5426291&tstart=0#5426291
There is nothing we can do in iWeb...

This site works in Safari but not in Firefox

This site works fine in Safari but not in the latest version of Firefox on 2 of my computers:
http://ase.tufts.edu/biology/labs/levin/resources/books.htm
I've cleared cache, restarted, etc. - no good. On Safari, I see a bunch of tiled thumbnails for various books on Amazon. On Firefox, I see absolutely no thumbnails, just rows of text and horizontal lines (I can't figure out how to upload attachments here).

Aha! Restarting without add-ons fixed it. I must have something that blocks iframes with links to Amazon books. Thanks!

My iWeb site loads in Safari, but not in Firefox, Opera, Chrome. Why?

I built my homepage with iWeb.
I am hosting over Mobile Me.
My Domain name is registered at Godaddy.
My site was online for the longest time. Now I did some changes and uploaded the site again.
With Safari, I can access my homepage.
Not so with Firefox, Opera, Chrome...
What could be the reason for this?
Thanks in advance!

I am a little bit smarter now:
When I use the full url, it is working in Safari and Chrome too.

My page works in Safari, but not in Internet Explorer

I am working on a new site, www.icu-usapro.com. I am working
on a mac and have the page looking and working fine in safari, but
when i view it in Internet Explorer, the menu at the top moves and
the links do not work. I imported the top from fireworks as HTML
and used javascript to get the buttons to work. Could someone help
me find out why it changes from browser platforms, I really need it
to work in IE.
thanks,
Tom

Just noticed that in IE and FireFox (Mac) your menubar
overwrites part of the graphic in the top left.
I tend to use FireFox (with the JavaScript console open) when
developing stuff and then test in Safari every now and again to
make sure it looks ok there, rather than use Safari during
development and testing occasionally in Firefox (or Camino).

Flash player work with Safari, but not with Internet Explorer

My flash player had a problem so I uninstalled it. I had a problem downloading the player with Internet Explorer, so I successfully download it with Safari. The player works fine with Safari, but I cannot get it to work with Internet Explorer 8.
I used to have the Flash Player 10 Active X (10.1.85.3), which I had uninstalled.
I now have the Flash Player 10 Plugin (10.1.85/3)
The problem I had downloading the player with IE was that the "allow Active X" information bar never appeared and I was unable to see any download at all.
How do I get flash to work with my Internet Explorer 8 (8.0.7600.16385)?

This adobe web site worked easily for me, when I needed to install adobe flash JUST for IE8.
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
All you need to do is choose your OS in the top window, then in the bottom window choose "Adobe Flash Player 10.1 for Windows Internet Explorer", and voila, that is what adobe installs!! Give it a go. I had problems too, before I foud this. Diligent

Slideshow widgets work in Safari but not in Internet Explorer.

I have tried both the Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip and the Spry Image Slideshow - Basic. They work well in Safari but they skip images in Internet Explorer. I am using the default widgets in each instance. In IE only the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th, 13th and 15th slides display and they do so without any real transitions. I haven't tried other browsers yet. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I'm having a similar issue. The Spry Slideshow - Basic widget works great in Firefox, but won't work in IE8.
Here's the test link I set up. http://arts-festival.com/TESTSLIDE.php
The page I set it into originally (isn't officially live, still up for testing purposes) is http://arts-festival.com/index2010.php
Error is:
Invalid Argument.
Line: 389
Char: 3
SpryDOMEffects.js
Code: 0
URI: http://www.arts-festival.com/Spry-UI-1.7/includes/SpryDOMEffects.js
Any suggestions?
Thank you!

Flash Player works in Safari but not Internet Explorer 9

I've installed Flash Player 10.3 and it works in Safari but not Internet Explorer 9. When I look in Manage Add-Ins I see Flash Shockwave but not Flash Player. My operating system is Windows Vista Ultimate (32bit). Safari is 5.0.5 and IE 9 is 9.0.8112.16421. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing Flash Player and uninstalling Norton 360. Nothing has worked so far. Can you help?

Thank you for your reply. Shockwave is loaded and enabled.
The files in flash directory are: a folder called FlashPlayerTrust: file, flash10q.ocx: file, FlashInstall.log; file, FlashUtil10q_ActiveX.dll; file, FlashUtil10q_ActiveX.exe, file, install.log.
There is no file: NPSWF32.dll.
When I test the browsers I get no spinning logo in either Safari or IE9. Safari says: missing plug-in, where I think the logo should be. IE-9 says nothing at the same location.
Thanks.

Forwarded to godaddy domain. works on safari but not explorer or firefox

I finally figured how to use my website so that when you type in the domain it redirects to the mobile me website. However, it is working just great on safari but not on explorer or firefox.

I have always used GoDaddy's forward and masking utilities and its worked great. When Apple updated iWeb to 08 with the ability to auto forward, I had lots of issues and thus went back to setting up my GoDaddy preferences to auto-forward and mask my site. GoDaddy has the very best phone support on the planet which makes up for one of the worst websites on the internet. Call them up and have them walk you through auto-forwarding and masking. Check out my site at: www dot jennifersheehan dot com. Hope that helps

Photo Gallery - works in Safari but not Firefox .. ?

Hi,
I have a photo gallery at http://www.sg-karting.com/Racing/Photos/Photos.html
When I go into the albums, pictures are displayed in Safari but not on Firefox.
When creating this page on iWeb I selected 'Web Gallery' instead of 'Album'. Does this make any difference?
Regards.

I have just visited "http://www.sg-karting.com/Racing/Photos/Pages/KartingEdgeRound-1.html" using both Safari Version 3.0.4 (523.12) and Firefox version 2.0.0.9 on a G4 PB 10.4.11. And both browsers displayed the same information from what I can see. All the pictures revealed themselves.
Have I picked the correct album for your example?
I tried other area's of your web site and all appeared to be the same as the Safari. Maybe you need to clear your cache.

Added a spry menu bar and site works in firefox but not in chrome or IE. Please help

Hello,
I'm a photographer by trade and have only picked up enough web design knowledge in order to build a website that isn't distracting to my photographs and is simple to update and mantain. Please breakdown any answers to my questions in very simple terms.
To start off here is a link to my site for reference. www.cechternach.com
1. My Biggest problem right now is that my site works in firefox but appears as a blank white page in chrome and in IE it only shows my background color.
I'm assuming that this has something to do with the spry menu bar I added. The galleries, banner, and footer were all part of a previous version of this website that didn't use the menu bar. I actually used png's exported from an illustrator as buttons. I've been wrestling with this menu bar for a few days now. I had an issue with the menubar forcing down the gallery below it. that was fixed by changing a position value from relative to absolute in the menubar css. Then I couldn't see the submenu over the galleries. I think I fixed that with a wmode change but I"m not sure if I did that right. I believe i needed to change that in the object and embed part of the code. One spot for certain browsers and the other spot for other browsers. I was a little confused on this because i also read that i needed to change the wmode in the javascript file in dreamweaver cs4 which is what i'm using. Whatever wmode I changed it seemed to work in firefox. The submenu background was showing up transparent but i fixed that in the menubar css.
2. I would like the submenu's to have a semi transparent blurred background effect. Is this possible with a spry menu bar?
3. How do I center my text in the submenu?
4. My menu bar buttons should be the same font as my name in my banner. It looks fine on my computer that has that font loaded but on other computers I was testing the site on the menubar buttons show up as a default font. How can i fix this?
5. Is there any way to get rid of the grey lines that show up around my slideshow pro galleries and menu bar buttons when they are clicked?
The last four questions aren't as important as the first one. I may be upsetting the flow of the forum as well. Please let me know if I'm not following procedure with any of my questions. Feel free to point out any other problems you see with my page. I'm trying to learn this as I go. Thanks in advance.

Spry widgets, which includes the SpryMenuBar, in their original state do not pose any problem in any browser!
Widgets contain two parts
JavaScript which drives the widget
CSS which styles the widget to individual tastes
The most common reason for a widget to misbehave especially in IE is because the inexperienced web developer has upset the delicate balance of the CSS. I say delicate, because in the original, great care has been taken by the Spry team to ensure cross browser compatibility.
There are other reasons why a whole page can misbehave. In these cases, the culprit should be sought outside of the Spry framework.
When trouble shooting, I would first of all comment out all of the Spry Spry parts and test the page in IE. If it does work after that, then yes come back here and we will have a look at the SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css for you.
If it doesn't work after disabling Spry, then have a look at the coding and the CSS for your page and fix that.
I hope this helps.

Created site in IWEB 08, works on Safari but looks different with Firefox?

I created a site with Iweb 08. I used Safari as the viewing browser and was happy with how the site looked. I then used Fetch to FTP the folder to the web server. When viewing the page on the server with Safari it was great, but when viewed with Firefox it was all frigged up. I didn't try it with Internet Destroyer cause personally I don't like it. I then published the page folder to Web.Mac.Com. The site works great on both browsers when accessed through web.mac.com. Is there something missing when accessing the site on my original server? My thought now is to remove the site from the original server and just bite the bullet and fly it on web.mac.com. Appreciate any thoughts

I think part of my problem was trying to move content made with Dream Weaver into IWEB. My site was made with Dream weaver originally. I pasted it into IWEB, thinking it was possible to do. It was to a point. I had to redo all my links and buttons and so on, but the pictures and text content seemed to look fine. After somewhat completing the site I published to a folder and used Fetch FTP to move the site to the server I was using. That is when i got the different looks in different browsers. I then published to the .mac server as I had a 60 day free trial. Low and behold the site looked good on the 2 browsers I have on my new IMAC. I switched over to the Windows side of the IMAC and logged into the site with IE 7. It looked good there too. So I ended up going with the .mac account to host the site
www.unitedpuett.com. I then had to redirect from Network Solutions, my registrar for the site, so when the address was typed in it would direct to the .mac server. This was another chore but was solved easily by
http://networkcreators.ning.com/profiles/blog/show?id=492224%3ABlogPost%3A50148
It all seems to work as it should.
On another note, i read that Microsoft was releasing IE 8 beta. The big change was they were finally standardizing their browser to match all the others when opening pages.

Firefox 3.6.12 does not load nay images from Joomla sites 1.5.21 and above. Works on Safari but Not Firefox. This happened after the firefox upgrade. All Joomla 1.5.20 and below work ok. why is this happening?

I have been developing Joomla sites for more than 4 years now and generally all the Joomla sites work well in Firefox. In this case, however, ever since Joomla upgraded to 1.5.21 and above, all Joomla sites on this level are having problems with Firefox 3.6.12 loading images.
We have tested a number of Joomla template manufactures and all the results are the same.
This problem is with the macbook pro only thus far. All the other apple products, like the towers, etc. are fine.
Not sure why this is happening. Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Leland

Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

Links working in Safari but not Firefox

Hi friends,
I'm hoping someone can help this confused amateur (aka me) get my website to work correctly. The site works fine in Safari -- but in Firefox, the internal links do not work (external links are OK). I suspect it has something to do with defining the pathways within the directory, but beyond that I'm lost.
Does anyone have a suggestion? I'm pretty sure it's a simple fix for someone who know what they're doing
Here's the site: www.thefourglobaltruths.com
The problematic links are under the banner, specifically "about the author," "links," "schedule," and "interviews."
BTW, I'm using a Macbook Pro, 10.6.8, and CS5...if any of that matters.
Many thanks in advance!

Is this website around 10+ years old?
It contains ancient, invalid code long past due for an update. It's a bit of a time machine.
Have you heard of validating code? It's a quick and easy method of checking if your code can be read properly by a browser.
If you put the address of the author page into http://validator.w3.org/
You will get 26 errors
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thefourglobaltruths.com%2Fauthor.html&c harset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

Input type="image" only works in Safari, but not IE or Firefox?

Having accidentally discovered a form on a site I am working on was only working in Safari, I've just spent about five hours retracing my steps, before eventually discovering that the code that was making the form fail was my submit code.
The page I was looking at had quite a bit of validation, CAPTCHA code and some jQuery to style some drop downs, so I figured something there was the issue.
But it turned out just to be the submit button.
I've just tried it on my contact page, and its failing in Firefox (Mac) too (and so I assume IE as well.)
Should this work, or is using input type="image" on a form submit button a big no no?
This code works:
<input type="submit" name="KT_Insert1" id="KT_Insert1" value="Post your query" />
But this code does not work (except, it seems, in Safari):
<input name="KT_Insert1" type="image" id="KT_Insert1" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('KT_Insert1','','../images/buttons/post_enquiry2.jpg',1)" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" value="Post your query" src="../images/buttons/post_enquiry1.jpg" border="0" />
Or am I missing something here?

Thanks for that - might have realised this a lot earlier if it didn't work in Safari!
I assume I just need some CSS like:
.formbutton
background-image: image1.jpg;
.formbutton :hover
background-image: image2.jpg;
And:
<input type="submit" name="KT_Insert1" id="Send" value="Send message" class="formbutton" />
