Popup windows work great in IE but not in FireFox

I'm sorry if some of you helpful folks are tired of seeing my questions, but...
I have a page with thumbnails (which float correctly thanks to Altruistic Grandpa) and clicking on each thumbnail opens a new window with a larger version of the photo and some text. It works great in IE - the window opens and closes like it should - but in FireFox it creates a second browser window that has to be manually closed in order to return to the index page.
Any suggestions?

Thank you, Nancy.
Not only did that solve the FireFox problem, it also fixed a minor glitch when previewing in IE.
Every day I learn something new. I just wish I had more days.

Cannot expand viewer for ESPN3. The task bar at the bottom is not visable. It works with Internet Explorer, but not with FireFox

There is a task bar that should be visible so you can expand the viewer to the full size of your computer screen. I can open up internet explorer and it works, but not in FireFox. This is when using ESPN3, or ESPNWATCH.

AirPort Express works great with PC but not with MAC

I have a PC and a MAC both able to connect to my AirPort Express in another room and play music. My MAC is a newer MacBook. When I'm running my iTunes library off my PC everything works fine and doesn't cut out. When I connect to my library on my MAC it plays fine for a while than most always cuts in and out and than completely won't work unless I reset the AirPort Express. My PC is running WIRED to my router and my MAC is running WIRELESS.
Why is this happening? Is it because I use a bluetooth keyboard and mouse on my MAC? Maybe that my MAC is running wireless? You'd think Apple products would work best with Apple products

Anyone at all? Any settings or anything to be set? Nothing?

Why does my Web Handler work with Internet Explorer, but not with Firefox

I am trying to develop a web page that uses the Simile Timeline (http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/wiki/Timeline) with data from SQL Server.
In initial testing of my timeline I tested it with Example.xml, a static XML file in the correct format to be event data. I wrote the following in the appropriate place within mytimeline's Javascript: -
var WebHandler = "Example.xml"
tl.loadXML(WebHandler, function (xml, url) { eventSourceFamily.loadXML(xml, url) });
This worked fine with both Firefox and Internet Explorer. I then changed the assignment to
var WebHandler = "GDBTimeline.ashx?Type=Family&Userid=" + getControlValue("input", "hdnUser");
so that invoked a web handler that could look up the SQL database and return the XML that I wanted, and wrote this web handler.
This works perfectly with Internet Explorer, but with FireFox the timeline band is blank. Yet when I examine the http traffic with Fiddler2 (http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2/) I see that with either browser there is a response from URL
/GDB_pages/GDBTimeline.ashx?Type=Family&Userid=robertb
that returns the XML that it is supposed to.
I have previously used web handlers with Firefox before, with no problems. The Fiddler results conclusively show that the web handler is invoked, and returns the appropriate XML, and this XML is identical to the XML from the static test with Example.xml.
Where do I start looking for answers? I don't even know if this is a Simile problem, a Firefox problem, or an ASP.NET problem.
Thank you, Robert.

Problem solved. The issue: Content Type was not correct.
Visual Studio creates the web handler with dummy code like this: -
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
context.Response.Write("Hello World")
End Sub
I wrote a database query that set a string variable to the XML I wanted: -
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
Dim Outstring as string
' my logic to fill Outstring with XML
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
context.Response.Write(Outstring)
End Sub
This works with Internet Explorer. However it's not strictly correct: to make it work with other browsers as well,
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
should be
context.Response.ContentType = "text/xml"
It now works with IE, FF, and Chrome, and presumably all others.

Why does the Java script work on my RSS feed work for Internet explorer but not for Firefox?

I have finished building the website for my Girlfriend and the only thing left is the RSS feed. It works just fine in IE 8 but in Fire Fox 9 when the widget is clicked a bookmark box pops up and asks if I want to save it as a bookmark. I am not a Java script programer so I am hoping for some help here!! Here is the script:
<li id="rss"><a href="http://www.susangabrielle.com/1/feed" title="RSS" alt="rss"><img src="/files/theme/rss.png"></a></li>
The sight is http://www.susangabrielle.com

Presumably you fixed it, the RSS seems to work for me

Problem solved. What happened is that my image was not big enough to be seen in a small window so it appears as if the image was not loaded at all.

PHP Script works in Chrome, IE9 but not in Firefox 15

This page is a PHP script for creating hyperlinks to all files in a directory:
http://www.checktheevidence.co.uk/audio/index.php?dir=&sort=date&order=desc
It works fine in IE9 and Chrome, but Firefox "give up" about 3/4 way down the listing the hyperlinks for the files are no longer shown. Weird stuff.
This issue has been present for a long time

It's not pretty, is it. The problem is that your page opens <strong> tags without closing them. For example:
<div>
<a href="Victoria Derbyshire Cuts off Police Constable talking about The Club in the Police - Radio 5 Live - 13 Sep 2012.mp3" class="w"><b><strong></b>Victoria Derbyshire Cuts off Police Constable talking about The Club in the Police - Radio 5 Live - 13 Sep 2012.mp3 </a>
(1.5 MB) (Modified: Sep 17 2012 11:06:37 PM)
</div>
This causes Firefox to "nest" tags in the page past a maximum depth. After that point, it just dumps text to the page. Similar/related past threads:
* [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/846246 Part way through a particular web page, HTML stops being rendered]
* [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/929969 text is missing from webpage]
So just a small fix to your PHP and you should be good to go.

Same page with tables works well on IE but not on Firefox or Safari

This qs may have been asked already but I am new to the forum.
I have created a page in DW using tables and everything fits beautifully in it. It works really well when tested on IE but all the alignments are way off on Mozilla Firefox and Safari(mac). I cant figure out why this is happening. I would like to site to work well on all 3 browsers.
here is the page: http://3beespaperie.com/casablanca.htm
as you can see, the top of the main photo should line up wiht the top of 'details'. same with http://3beespaperie.com/rajkumar.htm where the top of the photo is in the same table and row as that of the orange text on the right.
please help,
Thanks

Maybe something is preventing javascripts working. Do you have javascript enabled? (Options > Content)
Are you running any blocking add-ons like NoScript?

When i burn videos to a dvd-r disc it works on my macbook but not on a windows/pc or my dvd player. How can i make it work on all the above and not just a mac product?

Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.

Windows 8.1 64bit. Webcam works with "Camera" app but not with Skype.

I've spent a few hours googling and trying out various things - all listed below. I give up - any ideas??? OS: Windows 8.1 64bitMemory: 32GBWebCam: Microsoft VX-7000. As per subject - the webcam works with the "Camera" app but not with Skype for desktop or for Modern UI (or the Microsoft Lifecam software for that matter). Already attempted: 1) Uninstall webcam drivers - download latest from microsoft (Windows 7) and install in Windows 7 compatibility mode.2) Close (from taskmgr) anything that looks like it might use Webcam. 3) Run Skype for Desktop in Windows 7 and 8 compatibility modes None of the above work. In Skype for Modern UI the webcam doesn't appear in the drop down in Settings - so I can't even select it. In Skype for desktops (version 6.11.32.102) the webcam is found but instead of image I get "Can't start video. Try closing other programs that might be using your webcam". I see from a bit of googling that various people seem to have the same issue (i.e. Webcam works with Camera app but not Skype) - so I'm hopeful someone has found a workaround / fix to this issue and I've just not had the googling skills to find it Thanks, - Matt Symes

OK - I appear to have resolved the issue. I restricted my google terms to [vx-7000 site:microsoft.com "windows 8.1"] Which uncovered this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933311 I noticed there were a couple of Windows 7 x64 specific registry settings that were mentioned so I checked these and they weren't as per the article. In fact - one of the Registry Keys was already used by other software "AI Charger+" which is some ValueAdd software that came with my motherboard. I uninstalled AI Charger+, uninstalled LifeCam driver. Reinstalled LifeCam driver in Windows 7 compatibility mode. Still not working. I returned to the registry and noticed the settings still differed from the above article. I corrected them (which involved not just amending Data but having to add new Values). I then disabled and reenabled the LifeCam from dvcmgmt.msc I was then able to get video from the webcam in the Skype for Desktop preview screen.

Button hyperlinks work in project preview but not in published .swf

Captivate 6, button hyperlinks work in project preview but not in published .swf, the cursor changes the “the hand” but the hyperlink does not redirect.
Any ideas?
Like I said my buttons work great in preview mode after publishing, one click and the PDF opens in a new browser window. Open the project through the published .swf files and the links will not work.
Using Captivate 6 on WIndows 7

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
Once your project published, add the .swf file in Flash Global Setting :
1) Right Click on the content (Published .swf file) and click on Global Settings
2) Go to Advanced Tab and Click on Trusted Location Settings (Scrool down to see this button)
3) Click on "Add" button and then "Add file", browse for the Captivate 6 published file and click on OK
4) Launch the .htm file again (Location where Captivate publish your project)
Hope this helps !!
Thanks,
Vikram
