Why is my published site not operational when using Firefox or IE?

The original problem I experienced had to do with the fact that my published site's navigation bar was totally missing on each page and replaced with a "period" as described by the following thread... http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9899999&#9899999
The weird thing is that this problem only exists when using IE or Firefox on a PC (at work). Site is 100% operational using Safari on a Mac (at home).
Thinking my iWeb files were corrupt, I uninstalled and reinstalled iWeb '08. After doing so, I republished my site. The good news: the nav bar is now present on each page and operational. The bad news: my photo pages and blog page have zero content other than the header banner and nav bar. Again, this problem only exists when accessing the published site using IE or Firefox on a PC. The site is fully operational and all photos/blog entries present when accessing the site using Safari on my Mac.
What gives? Did a recent iWeb update (intended for iWeb 09 users or intel-based macs) corrupt my iWeb '08 on my PowerBook G4?

Please note that Java and Javascript are not related. iWeb uses a lot
of Javascript, not Java. There may be some issues with the Javascript
generated by iWeb -- I don't know. If it seems to work for someone
and not for someone else then it is an issue at the browser end, not
the website end. Each browser may not be handling the Javascript in
exactly the same way. (You gotta love standards.)

  • U/tube videos open when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox.

    u/tube videos open fine when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox. With Firefox I get the unhighlighted Quicktime symbol with a question mark in the center. WHY?? Any help appreciated --- Toroya

    Hmmmm, strange you view YouTube in Safari & not FF. Which version of FF are you using?
    Try the following:
    Repair permissions & restart.
    Make sure you have the latest versions of Adobe Flash Player Software
    QuickTime Preferences > Advanced > MIME Stettings > Miscellaneous.
    Deactivate the "Flash Media" option.

  • Unable to open https sites. can open when using firefox in safe mode.

    Mozilla Firefox has been an exceptional browser, however in the last update I have experienced problems when trying to open https sites. They will not open and then time out. I do not have this problem when using Internet explorer. I have contacted customer service at the problem sites, and they have said other customers have also experienced this problem. I have gone into options and have changed various settings to see if this would solve the problem. It didn't, your response would be appreciated.. Please note if I use firefox in safe mode I can access these sites? My E-mail as follows: [email protected]

    Did you perhaps install an extension to open sites with https
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press "Enter"
    # Use Find ("Ctrl+F") to look for '''https'''
    One such extension is "HTTPS-Everywhere"
    As you probably know Firefox Safe Mode disables extensions and some preferences.

  • Spry Horizontal Menu causing site not to load using Firefox and Maverick OSX 10.9.2

    Why does Spry Horizontal Menu cause site not to load using Firefox and Maverick OSX 10.9.2?

    Your code is terribly malformed.
    There are multiple body tags & erroneous tags that overlap your <head> and other content tags. Get those fixed first.
    And you also have more than 1 doctype definition in the wrong place.
    If my assumption is correct, I think each include file you're using has its own doctype, body, html & head definitions causing final PHP to render all these on your output page.
    Run your site through W3 validator like Jon suggested earlier: [Invalid] Markup Validation of http://www.ambppct.org/ - W3C Markup Validator
    Fix those and you should be good.

  • I have loaded the new Flash version into Firfox several times, but none of my sites recognize it when using Firefox. It works fine on all other browsers, but I would prefer to use Firfox if this problem can be solved.

    I use Firefox 4.0.1 on a Mac running Os X10.5.8. When I try to run Facebook or other sites that are heavy users of Flash I get a message that the new version of Flash must be loaded. I have loaded the latest version several times, but still get the message and these sites will not run on Firefox. The sites run fine with Safari or Chrome but I prefer to use Firefox if it can be made to run these sites. Thank you for any suggestions you have to help fix this problem.

    Apparently it's related to the Firefox plug in.
    This isn't exactly a solution but more of a way to avoid opening PDFs with Firefox's plug in.
    1. Highlight "Tools" from the Menu Bar in the top left of the screen (or click "Options" if using the Firefox Compact Menu)
    2. Select to "Options
    3. Select "Applications"
    4. Look for "Adobe Acrobat Document" under Content Type and to the right under Action select "Use Adobe Reader (default)" instead of the using Adobe Acrobat in Firefox
    5. Open a test PDF. It should open in it's own window now.
    Again, not a complete solution but something that'll at least let you scroll with PDFs open.

  • My Hotmail login details only save in IE, but do not retain when using Firefox as broswer. There seems to be something in FAQ's, but can't resolve

    When using IE, my Hotmail details, always save for next login (using the "keep me logged in" tick box).
    Using Firefox to open Hotmail, my details are never retained and (using the "keep me logged in" tick box also), I have to put full details in each time, rather annoying....does Microsoft do this on purpose to retain IE users?
    As mentioned above, there does seem to be something in the FAQ's, but even following this, i can't seem to get this to stop happening, so whilst wishing to use Firefox more often, for Hotmail access this is a bit of a pain!!!

    I'm not sure whether such Hotmail features work with Firefox.

  • Flash will not install when using firefox 34.0.5

    I have installed Firefox 34.0.5. I've tried everything to install flash but it still do not work. It says it installed fine, but when I check, it has not been installed. It's not even in the add-on list. Please tell me how this works. Thanks.

    I am sorry to hear that you are having this problem with Adobe Flash in Firefox. I would be happy to help you get this problem taken care of. First in Firefox go to the [http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer Adobe Flash Player website] . Then instal it, after that close out Firefox just to make sure that it will apply. Then check to see that it is listed in the add-on list.
    This should take care of any problems that you have been having. If not let me know and we will work from there. If it does fix the problem please mark this answer as the solution to the problem.

  • Flash Video not smooth when using Firefox tabs

    I'm not sure whether this is a Flash Player problem or a
    Firefox problem, but something in the integration leads to this
    unpleasant experience.
    I like to start a video and listen to it while I browse other
    content. But when other tabs are loading, the sound from the video
    gets some interruptions.
    What is the root of this problem/bug? Is there any way to fix
    it?
    Thanks,

  • The menu button on my tablet does not appear when using firefox Aurora

    I have a tablet Android v4.0.3 and I installed Firefox 15c - Aurora via the downloaded apk file
    1. There is no entry in my list of application
    2. Firefox does not invoke the menu "soft button" on my tablet. I see the backup, HomePage and ActiveApplications, but not the menu button
    I am using an 8" tablet, ARM v7 variation, ARM cortex A10 the Momo
    I downloaded the full-screen add-on, but I do not have a nenu button
    I see all ther required toolbar icons in Aurora, so I do not have an issue there.

    The version of Aurora is 15.0b2 and not 15c as stated above. I downloaded Aurora on 2012-07-10, the day that I opened this problem qustion

  • Why does my iMac screen flicker only when using Safari? It doesn't happen with Firefox.

    Yesterday, I had an issue with OS X, causing my screen to go black upon waking up my pc. Come to find out through the Apple Forum, that when the OS X was originally installed, it was not a complete install. Once I received the fix solution, completing the OS X install, (10.9.3) everything was back to normal, so it seemed.
    Now, when using Safari, the whole page flickers and so forth, including the address bar. I never had problems with the screen prior to this. Also, it doe not occur when using Firefox.
    Is there a fix for this? or an adjustment that can be made. This never happened prior to the OS X install, which was about 2 months ago.

    Troubleshoot Safari extensions ..
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • I've just started using the App Tabs. I think this feature could be handy but why are the sites not updated when I start Firefox. Now I have to manually update the site which is somewhat of a downer. Does any of you know where I'm going wrong?

    To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
    Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

  • Why does SMS tell me "not allowed" when I try to add an existing contact to one of my SMS Groups?

    Why does SMS tell me "not allowed" when I try to add an existing contact? 

    If you are running Tiger, you don't have time machine. 
    You need to get something like SuperDuper! or Carbon Copy Cloner (sorry, I don't have a handy link for CCC but you can Google it to get their site) to make a clone of your drive on the external and then do incremental backups.  The free versions do a lot and you can upgrade to the full-service versions for small change if you need more.  The one time I used SuperDuper! for cloning a volume it worked just fine. 
    (My backup application is the last PPC capable version of Retrospect, which does a credible job, or has over the past ten-twelve years.)
