Need help with Rollover Image cross browser problem

Hello,
I am having a cross browser problem with my websites rollover nav links. The trouble is, while they work perfectly fine in IE8 and IE9, I’ve also attempted to use them through Opera, and they simply don’t work. They don’t link nor do they do their rollover effect. And I was trying to figure out what I have done wrong. Currently the site is not completed, but the first two pages are, the “news” and “about me” pages are currently (as of right now) working. The address to the site is below.
http://maxmetal.xsustudios.com/index.html
I hope that someone can help me with this, if needs be I can put the code for the CSS and HTML into this part if it will save some time for everyone. Sorry too about the PNG images, I have to change those over to semi-transparent GIF’s yet so the site does take a while to load…
Hope someone can help me with this!

When I disable CSS in my browser, the rollover buttons work just fine. This tells me your CSS is messed up and you've layered something over your menus which is making them inaccessible to users.
I noticed you've applied relative positioning to just about everything on your page. Why?   Default CSS positioning (unspecified or static) is all you need for 98% of layouts.

My advice would be to start over using a pre-built CSS Template with all the divisions and columns you're likely to need for this project. Below are some good links to get you on the right track.

Flex and php file uploader cross browser problems

Hi, I have a problem in flex and php file uploader. It was
working fine in Internet Explorer, but nothing would work in
Firefox and in other browsers. Firefox and other browsers was not
sending the session with the file upload and was producing a login
error. On IE the session cookie is picked up and the upload request
uses the authenticated session, no login error. I'm newbie in flex.
Please help me. Thanks in advance!
Here's my code:
bgupload.mxml

Hello, I am Gamaliel Arredondo, i have solved this problem, the error is in the code, you have a mistake in your code, check it out.
The way to run the flex applications, in my case, i installed xampp, in the htdoc directory i put the folder with the files of the application and all is working very well, only when the apache is running because if it is stoped the application show error, please review your code and if you have problems you can contact me by e-mail ([email protected]) i also fought with that problem but i could find the solution, i hope to help you.

GREAT cross browser javascript xml libriary

Hello !
This cross browser javascript xml libriary, will make work with XML much easier.
I am working on client side javascript at my job, and had to handle some data in big xml files using advanced xpath and this is not problem when dealing with IE but when it comes to Firefox and Opera it become nightmare to finish this job.
Then I decided to write module in javascript that can handle xml query using xpath:
http://www.softxml.com/softxmllib/softxmllib.htm
It supports all known browsers on windows.
It's functions named same as Microsoft.XMLDOM
loadXML,load,selectNodes but supported by all browsers
If any one of you tired too writing javascript/xml for all browsers, then go and download this module!!!!
Thanks

But since the only way (or at least so I think) to pass a
javascript variable to CF is via a javascript
document.location.href redirect (and passing the variables via URL
variables), I have the javascript in the first page redirect and
send the variables to the coldfusion template that then digests the
xml and does a database insert.
You should just do a server-side redirect and avoid
Javascript altogether. As a rule of thumb, one should use
Javascript to manipulate data or presentation at the client end.

Firefox 4 has made Yahoo as my browser instead of Google

Hi,
Firefox 4 has made Yahoo as my browser instead of Google (which I prefer). Also all the plugins/functionality (? sorry I don't know the correct term!)) I had, such as Seo Quake and others seem to have disappeared. The page also looks very odd with nothing on it.
The page that loads when I open Firefox has on the the following items: The Firefox icon, a search box, a box stating "Be a web hero....." and a box that reads "Restore Previous Session".
Every now and again I get an error message that reads: "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Script: chrome://ytoolbar/content/ytoolbarOverlay.js:3
I would really appreciate your help in sorting this problem out.
Many thanks,
Sally

I have the same problem, and I also wondered if Google toolbar has anything to do with it. There GMAIL was set as the default mail application at first. I have removed that setting, but Firefox 4.0.1 continues to use GMAIL instead of Outlook which is my selection for mailto handling.

Cross browser differences

The jsp pages in our project work fine in IE browser. But in Netscape browsers, the alignment is all messed up. We are at the end of the project and we dont have time to change all the jsp pages. I was told that there is some kind of javascript to handle situations like this. Including that javascript in the jsp pages essentially solves this problem. I was wondering if this is true? Please share your knowledge on this topic. I really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Ravi.

Hi,
it depends on how you have structured your code. If you have done a css for the layout, you can know what browser is in use and switch to a specific external css. Something like:
if (document.layers)
document.write("<LINK HREF='netscape.css' REL='stylesheet' TYPE='text/css'>")
else if (document.all)
document.write("<LINK HREF='stile.css' REL='stylesheet' TYPE='text/css'>")
else if (!document.all && document.getElementById)
document.write("<LINK HREF='mz.css' REL='stylesheet' TYPE='text/css'>")
else
document.write("<LINK HREF='xx.css' REL='stylesheet' TYPE='text/css'>")
and so on...
Sometimes the problem is in using special costruc that works fine only in IE (for example): this is quite more complicated to solve, becouse you have to find a different solution.
There isn't any "general" solution to cross browser compatibility; usually it is a good idea to start developing in order to achieve it and not to demand it in a late stage.

Email/browser problem

Hi
About 2 weeks ago I suddenly discovered I was unable to open any web links attached to my emails.
When I clicked on the address, the browser, at that time, Mozilla Firefox, home page came up and the loading sign appeared in the top left hand corner. After approx 15 seconds a message appears which say the pages cannot be accessed and to kill or wait.
After attempting to fix the problem I uninstalled Firefox and made Google Chrome my default browser. only to find the same problem exists. The only way I can open the internet address is to copy it from the email and then paste it into the address bar of
the browser. Have you any suggestions as to how I can fix this annoying problem?
Many thanks
GMMagic

Hey, you can try to reinstall the browser problems. Probably it will help.
About the problem appeared even after browser is different, it is necessary to set the default browser.
I attached you a link that explains how to do this.

Cross Browser? Opinions please.

Say a developer develops a basic .html site that is viewable
cross-browser. Now, taking advantage of features available in one
browser, he or she develops content that uses those features.
Not wanting to negatively impact the experience of other
browser users, whose browser cannot use those features and indeed
causes problems in their browser, the developer codes the site to
detect the browser and not display the additional content to them.
So the browser users who can see the new content get it and
those with other browsers see only the original site. No harm, no
foul? Or is the definition of Cross-Browser that EVERYONE MUST see
the same content - develop for the lowest common denominator?
The reason I ask, is that I have heard people throw around
terms like "unprofessional" if someone develops for only one
browser. I was just wondering what the definition of Cross-Browser
is.

"unprofessional" might be too much of a word. Bottom line is
what is that your
client needs and agree too.
For years people were developing stuff that was only
supported in IE, no one *****
about it because it was kind of given, we all knew it simply
did not work anywhere else.
From basic css to dhtml and others...
If my clients does not mind that I develop with FireFox in
mind and not IE, why would
I care if someone call me unprofessional. I want my content
to work right to the client
liking.
I read some threads day or two days back, pretty similar
issue. Tho I could not agree
with some of the points but than again, if my client has a
say in it and he is ok, that
is fine with me. Lots if not all of my clients feel strongly
about IE and security problems.
These are normal mortals, not computer savvy people and they
hate the idea that
regular surfing get them pack up with spyware and all this
stuff, people who not suppose
to know about cleaners, protections and 20 other applications
required just to run browser safely.
Because of that, they strongly encourage support of FireFox
and content specifically built
for it.
I herd many of times, "don't worry about IE, we don't want it
anyway"...

Cross browser testing:Click action on UITestcontrol got using ExcuteScript API is not working.

Hi,
For one of the web control,I am using ExecuteScript API to get the UITestControl as explained in this link (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2013/01/18/introducing-jscript-execution-on-internetexplorer-and-crossbrowser-in-coded-ui-test.aspx
)and trying to perform click action on the control.It is not performing the click action on the control but script status is success.
Problem is seen only with specific Overload of Mouse.Click().Here I am constructing the control using bounding rectangle dynamically.
The API I am using is
Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UITesting.Mouse.Click(UITestControl, MouseButtons.Left, ModifierKey.None, clickablePoint );
Point Caluculation is shown below:
clickablePoint = return new Point(boundingRect.Width / 5, boundingRect.Height / 4);
I tried to debug the code and found that Selenium web driver is throwing null reference exception while using this API for Left button click action.Could you please check the problem and fix it.So that I can
use this API as per my requirement.
Regards,
Nagasree.

Hi Nagasree,
Latest version of Chrome and Firefox supported by cross browser testing are Chrome version 38.0.2125.111 and
Firefox 33. So please make sure the Chrome and Firefox is supported by cross browser testing
Whether this API: Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UITesting.Mouse.Click(UITestControl, MouseButtons.Left, ModifierKey.None, clickablePoint ) worked fine with IE browser when
you run this test?
If the same API worked fine on IE browser but not on Chrome or Firefox browser, “Q AND A” tab in this link:
Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing is a better place for resolving this problem.
It seems that you want to click the control using bounding rectangle, then you don't neet to use MouseButtons.Left and ModifierKey.None, you can use such API:
Click(UITestControl, Point) or
Click(Point) directly.
You also can try to use the following code snippet, maybe it can help you.
Rectangle r = TargetControl.BoundingRectangle.
Mouse.Click(new Point(r.X + r.Width/2, r.Y + r.Height/2));

Hi O_H_I_O,
Have you got an error code ?
Considering it is a brand new machine ,please update the machines .To get a better performance of the machines ,we should always keep it up to date .
There is a possibility that the DVD/CD-ROm drives driver is old or has corrupted .Please open the device manager , update or reinstall the driver to have a check.
Apart from this ,we can run the built-in tool to a diagnostic :

Cross browser testing : Modifier Keys playback actions not working in chrome and Firefox

Hi,
In my work flow I have to select multiple items in list.So I have recorded 'Ctrl+Click' action to select list items.In Chrome and Firefox it is not selecting multiple Items.
Even Ctrl+A,Ctrl+C,Ctrl+V also not working in chrome and Firefox.Complete modifier keys support is not observed in chrome and Firefox.Let me Know how to automate modifier keys actions in cross browser?
Regards,
Nagasree.

Hi Nagasree,
Welcome to MSDN forums.
First,please make sure the Chrome and Firefox is supported by cross browser testing.
Latest version of Chrome and Firefox supported by cross browser testing are Chrome version 38.0.2125.111 and
Firefox 33.
I doubt whether Chrome and Firefox in cross browser testing don’t support automating modifier keys or there is anything wrong on it if you are using supported browser. Since this issue is related to the Extensions tool
Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing, if possible, I suggest you post this
issue here, click “Q AND A”, and then you could post this issue there, you would get dedicated
support there.
Thanks for your understanding.

Backing up QuickTime's advice --
Unless your bank's website is insecure, you're fine. Go up to the Safari "Search" bar and type in Rapport. You'll be amazed. It may "work" on PCs, but definitely not Macs. And it's not needed for Macs.

I created a book on iPhoto. I click on the buy button, and I get a connecting message with a blue striped rectangle. I am connected to the internet and I have made books before without any problems. I have tried for the past two weeks at various times.

Ok, I thought I could do a project in my new Final Cut Pro X. I got everything downloaded on Final Cut and I made my Project. The problem is is has taken so long to render that I don't have time. How do I download the video from Final Cut to Imovie?

Your media is stored in Final Cut Events folder > "name of event" > original media. The Final Cut Events folder is in your movies folder or at the root level of an external drive if you are using one to store your media. Simply open iMovie and under file menu select import movies. Navigate to the original media folder and import your clips to Imovie event library.

A few cross browser questions

Hello, I have been searching for results for sometime and
decided to come here to ask my question.
Now, I know these questions have been asked alot of times but
I have no good results.
My question:
Why does every website I make look Good in IE and bad in
firefox?
or vise versa. I can make it look good in firefox but looks
bad in I.E.
I mean I layout the design perfectly in Dreamweaver 8 and it
looks sweet in I.E. preview in Firefox and it makes me not want to
make layouts any more..
What do I do? And how do I fix this?
Currently I am making a "Liquid" Layout, using "%" for my Div
and Tables, and they seem to be ok in I.E. like I stated, but still
when I view in firefox, everything is to the left or off centerd or
just plain nasty.
Anytips? I got the whole Screen Resolution trick down, now I
just need professinal tips on cross browser design.
I don't have my site hosted yet so I cannot give you a
preview. I am sure you know what I am talking about as well.
I searched google and many forums (including this one) and
came up empty handed.
What am I doing wrong? Do I just manage the site as it is
even though that the website is 5px off to the right/left in
firefox and looks great in internet explorer.
I want to provide a clean site for both browsers with out
having them redirecting.
Which I can redirect one "If I.E." to a page, and redirect FF
to a diffrent. But that's a hassel in my view.
Seriously, what do I do?
Thank you for your time and any response.

As Jo mentioned, it would be too hard to give you advice on
your page
without seeing the code (or even better a live version).
The better approach is to design for Firefox and then fix the
errors that
are produced in IE.
Are you using a full doc type? That is important, because if
not, then IE
will go into quirks mode, thinking it is rendering your page
correctly, but
FFox will show it out of wack.....
are you using divs of 'layers' (absolutely positioned divs)?
As you can see there are many things that may be wrong with
your site- so
without seeing it, it's too difficult to offer specific
advice.
Have you been through the css tutorials at the Adobe site
(link in my
sig)..... they are very helpful - starting with beginner
tutorials and
moving on from there.
