GIF image doesn't show up in IE.

There is a .gif image on my website that will not show up while using internet explorer for some reason. I viewed the properties of the image and it shows the correct dimensions and everything.

Does anyone know of a reason this would be happening?

It looks fine using firefox and other browsers.

 

Can you give the URL?

 

Thanks for sending the URL. It was a perplexing problem! I finally figured it out, the animated GIF was corrupt, apparently it had extra frames that were not valid. Firefox was ignoring the extra frames, but IE wasn't smart enough so it just showed nothing.

I found the problem by loading the GIF into my favorite GIF software 'GIF Movie Gear', it didn't show any problem (couldn't see any extra frames) but when I tried to re-save the file it explained the problem and offered to auto-fix it. I am sending a PM with a fixed copy for you.

 

Thank you so much! I would've never known what the problem was.

 

No problem! Pity you have all that red rep so you can't reward me for my detective work

 

Another reason to swithc to Firefox .
