    Hi,
    I have published a few pages with iweb on mac, which seems to work with Safari, but not firefox. I had a problem with the code <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>, and i took it off but still not displaying the pictures. please remove spaces.

    Check out the path of your pictures is it correct or not. That seem to be the only problem to me. You doing it on local system or on web server ??

    I'm seeing the same thing in IE 7 as I see in Firefox 3.x -- did you fix it? Or, maybe you have images set to not load in Firefox? I'm not seeing any issues...

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    Do not use this. It is the necessary beginning of an XML document, which your page isn't if anything works at all in IE. W3C was still recommending this last I saw, but IE6 goes into quirks mode with anything before the doctype, including this. Ie7 has been trained to ignore it, but again, it's really for XML documents, and XHTML pages served as text/html are still HTML, not XML or XHTML. So it's redundant.

    (and if by some chance it really were an xhtml document sent as application xhtml+xml then leaving it off would simply mean, default to version 1 (cause there ain't no other version yet) and default to UTF-8 (which you're stating anyway), so, leave it off)

    I don't really know, but I see a couple of errors popping up. Maybe these mean something to you:

    
    Error: widgetDiv.getElementsByClassName("paginated_only").invoke is not a function
    Source File: http://www.riveroakslimo.com/MHUMC/Scripts/Widgets/HeaderControls/HeaderControls.js
    Line: 100
    
    Code (markup):
    Which corresponds to this:

    
    var template=new Template(controls);var myControls=template.evaluate({WIDGET_ID:this.instanceID});this.getElementById("pagination_controls").update(myControls);widgetDiv.getElementsByClassName("paginated_only").invoke(this.p_isPaginated()?'show':'hide');widgetDiv.getElementsByClassName("non_paginated_only").invoke(this.p_isPaginated()?'hide':'show');if(this.runningInApp)
    
    Code (markup):
    Actually, the other was a CSS width, but I'll post it here:

    
    Warning: Error in parsing value for 'width'.  Declaration dropped.
    Source File: http://www.riveroakslimo.com/MHUMC/Retreat_09/Retreat_09_files/Retreat_09.css
    Line: 292
    
    Code (markup):
    Maybe this'll help? These were generated by Firefox's error console when I loaded the page.

    Yeah the width thing is only affecting a list item and needs units.

    But it would make sense that Firefox isn't showing anything because it's Javascript. I would think a template writer would know to write cross-browser javascript, but it is certainly possible to write Javascript that only works in IE (or that works in all browsers except IE).

    As a note, it's generally better not to have Javascript state a bunch of styles. Instead, make it refer to a real stylesheet.

    Hi, thanks for the replay,
    I did add a value to Retreat_09.css, but still not working. I used iWeb for this with no much knowledge in HTML. Will applecite any feedback, btw it works fine in Safari which make some sense since it is a mac browser.

    Hey everyone. First time web developer and first to this forum. I have an issue with Firefox not displaying my images correctly in my header. I have six images that fit into my header and display correctly on every web browser but one. On Firefox, the last image displays under the header and not next to the other images....

    techtricker: now check that page out in Opera or IE. There's supposed to be an image in the big white area. I see it in Chrome, Opera, IE, Saffy, but not FF 3.0 (didn't check 3.5).

    It certainly would show up if it were just HTML and CSS. The CSS issue brought up isn't causing the problem, that was just an unrelated error (just good that you fixed it). The problem's gotta be the JS as rogan said.

    Firefox doesn't like capitals in any URLs, so "Cats.jpg" is different to "cats.jpg" in FF but not in Dreamweaver or IE. Perhaps that is the problem?

    It's supposed to work that way and how Firefox handles it is also correct.

    Looking at the html, there is no content being served and that's the reason FF isn't showing anything. This is most likely a server setting but, without looking, could be the javascript. Look elsewhere for the solution to this problem and not Firefox.

    It seems to be your javascript code, javascript can be very funny, you need to always check with the code provider that whether it has been tested and is compatible with all browsers. I donno much about iweb but look into their support and find out whether they support other browsers for their code.
