Why does my site load slower in firefox

My websites, http://thedailymeditation.com and http://lifeandself.com take longer to load in firefox. Why?

In what way do they take longer?
You can try to open a New Private Window to see if that has effect.
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (MAC)
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

Why does the new version 5 of firefox show up all the graphics on web sites with a huge wide black border?

Why does the new version 5 of firefox show up all the graphics on my web sites with a huge wide black border? They should be narrow and yellow!! I use iWeb for my web sites on an AppleMac iMac 22" wide screen.

That is unfortunately a bug only in Firefox 5 and will be fixed in Firefox 6 (Aug).

Why does it take so long for Firefox to load?

Why does it take so long for Firefox to launch at initial start up? It usually takes 3 or 4 minutes. IE loads within a few seconds.

Reset the homepage to something else, or do not use a home page at all.

How does my site load?

As the title asks, how does my site load? Here's a link: http://www.mkstudios.comxa.com/MK_Studios/Home.html. Some people have said that each time a tab is selected, the images are what slows it down. It's pretty fast on my connection, but I know other people not have the same speed as me. Like when I'm at work for example, it's not as fast here. What are your takes on it?

Bonjour,
The two images are PNG ([170 ko|http://www.mkstudios.comxa.com/MKStudios/Home_files/shapeimage1.png] and [90 ko|http://www.mkstudios.comxa.com/MKStudios/Home_files/shapeimage2.png]) because they are masked images (shapeimage).
A trick :
Drag and drop these two PNG ([170 ko|http://www.mkstudios.comxa.com/MKStudios/Home_files/shapeimage1.png] and [90 ko|http://www.mkstudios.comxa.com/MKStudios/Home_files/shapeimage2.png]) into your iWeb page
Remove the originals
Don't use mask or unmask the PNG images (important!)
!http://i32.servimg.com/u/f32/09/02/44/99/unmask10.jpg!
Publish
Visit your site, refresh the page : now the 2 images are JPG (about _37 ko_ and 15ko ).

Dealing With The Resume Feature of Lion
Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature.
If you shutdown your computer you should get a dialog asking if you want applications to resume on the next startup. Simply uncheck the box to prevent that from occurring. Open General preferences and uncheck the option to Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps. You can also install a third-party utility to control resume features on individual applications: RestoreMeNot or Application State Cleaner.
It is possible to completely stop the Resume feature although I'm unconvinced that it is that annoying. Nevertheless see the following:
If you have not yet done so you must first make your /Home/Library/ folder visible. Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following command line:
chflags nohidden ~/Library
Press RETURN. Quit the Terminal application.
In the Finder navigate to the /Home/Library/Saved Application State/ folder. Delete the contents of the folder. Back up to the /Home/Library/ folder. Select the Saved Application State folder. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Sharing and Permissions panel at the bottom click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window.
Quit all open programs except the Finder (this is very important.) Next, navigate to the /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ folder. Look for a .plist file with "com.apple.loginwindow." in the file name followed by some numbers in hexadecimal. Select the file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and in the Sharing and Permissions panel click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window. If you also find a file with the same filename but with a last extension of ".lockfile," then you should delete it.
The above should eliminate the Resume feature system-wide. Note that any future system updates or upgrades will likely undo these changes. You will then need to repeat this procedure assuming there are no major changes in OS X related to it.

Why does every site, even Mozilla's, detect my Firefox as an old version when I have the up to date version?

My Firefox is updated, I have the 7.0.1. version, when I open Tools and click about Firefox it shows me just that, the 7.0.1. version. But every time I navigate to a website that offers download for it, I get the message I need to update. Even here, at Firefox help, the site warns me: '''''Warning: Firefox 3.6 will only be maintained with security and stability updates for a short period of time. Please update to the latest version of Firefox.'''''
Also if I want to install an add-on, I can't because 'it's not available for 3.6'
I uninstalled it and installed it again, no use. What could be the problem?

Your UserAgent string in Firefox is messed up by another program that you installed.
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent]
type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter 
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.'' 
Filter = '''general.useragent.extra.firefox''' 
Right-click that preference and select '''Reset''' 
Then restart Firefox

Why does this site hang up?

Can someone tell me why the following site gets hung up and
doesn't finish loading? I know it has something to do with the CSS
files but I'm not sure why it does it. What am I doing wrong?

It finishes loading just fine for me in Firefox, but not
everything loaded.
In IE, it keeps loading. If I disable javascript, it stops.
So, it appears
to be related to a javscript you have running on the page.
-Darrel
That's really odd because if you look at the page below I
have that same script and IE loads and stops just fine. However,
the one below doesn't use CSS like the first example I gave.

Why is my site loading slowly?

I'm curious. I have high speed, and my site loads quickly for me, although, it does take a few seconds as things appear, like the background, headings, etc. Is this normal? Some others are saying that it's VERY slow for them, so it's gotta be bad for non high speed internet users.
What causes this, and how can I help it? I changed my background, which was something I "painted" in Painter IX, and tweaked in Photoshop, then I optimized it for the web, which made it a GIF. I figured that would help a lot, but it seems to have made it a tad slower, actually. Weird. Even my images are all downsized in the "downsize" program. Can't figure out what would be causing it to be so slow!

Hi Tami
Here are some of the backgrounds and images you are using on your pages, and their sizes:
http://www.heartdogstudios.com/heartdogstudios/Homefiles/backgroundimage1.png 850K
http://www.heartdogstudios.com/heartdogstudios/About%20Me_files/Biophoto-filtere d.png 446K
http://www.heartdogstudios.com/heartdogstudios/Images/background.gif 319K
http://www.heartdogstudios.com/heartdogstudios/Photographyfiles/backgroundimage1.png 479K
It's these that are causing the problem.
If you've already optimised the images, then once you drag them into iWeb, don't apply any effects within iWeb itself, otherwise you will turn it into a png again upon publish.

Does this homepage load slow on your system?

My homepage seems to be loading slow. I don't know if it's due to one item, or multiple items on the page. I have two flash swf files on there (photos and navigation) along with a google calendar and a google search bar. Is one or the combination of all of these causing the web page to load slow? I tried it in both firefox and ie9.
My goal also is to add a non-flash page option that auto loads for ipad/mobile. I just need to look for the code for that. Thanks!

Good looking site.
Clean up your code so it validates

I would also re-think that Flash navbar. It's novel but 1) how do those without Flash navigate the site? 2) maintaining it will soon become a chore.
CSS driven navbars set up as Server Side Includes may be a better choice.

Why does my safari run slow with DSL?

I recently had to change to DSL internet, and my macbook safari does not do well with it.
I cannot seem to open more than one internet tab at a time, videos do not load, slow loading time for searching.
Is there a way to fix this to where my safari is not so slow?
Is it a macbook fix, or should I increase my DSL usage limit?
My macbook is up to date.

You will have to call the Internet Service Provider and let them test the line.
Best.

After latest FP update, why does my website only work in Firefox.

I spent ages the other night trying to fix my website, as it suddenly stopped working in IE9. Tried all sorts of FP installs with no avail. Eventually went back to IE8, think 9 was the problem, and still my site won't work. Out of 4 browsers, IE8 (or 9), Opera, Safari and FF, only FF displays my site. If I understand correctly, FF doesn't use the same plugin as the rest. My question is, why does it only work in one browser, and not the others.
If I use my HTC Desire, the site works fine too.
Just to be clear though, this isn't just on one PC, it is on three. I have one running Win7 64-Bit, one running XP Pro, and one running Vista Business. None of them will display the site with IE8. Oh, and my WIn7 machine dual boots with XP Home, and that doesn't work either.
Even my Vista Business machine, which actually hosts the site, won't display it properly.
The site was created using SWF files built in Flash CS3, if that's relevant. One AS2 file, and 2 AS3 files on a page (usually)
You can check the site here www[DOT]digital[DASH]essence[DOT]co[DOT]uk
Sorry for the unfriendly address, I don't trust forums and website addresses.

It's the forums that make the image tiny, if you do a right-click > copy shortcut, you can then paste it into a new tab, which will let you see the full size image. It's a 3360x1050 image, maybe a bit big for the forums.
Basically though, the left image is IE, and that shows an error box. The centre image is Opera, and that shows an empty screen. The right image is FF, and that is how it should look.
If it's a machine specific error, then I can't work out why it is on several machines in my house... very odd.
