I'm trying to diagnose a problem with an older site than I'm supporting. The problem is that in IE8, a SELECT tag is being hidden. Turns out it is due to an older version of a calendar.js which is applying visibility:hidden style to not only SELECT Tags, but also applets and iframes. I'm rusty on my javascript and details of older brow...
In my site I have some gzipped copies of the most used and largest files (because my hosting doesn't allow using the gzip compression module). I have inserted rewrite rules in the htaccess file to send the gzipped copies when available, like this: <FilesMatch "\.html\.gz$"> ForceType text/html Header set Content-Encoding: gzip </Fi...
We have an online movie that displays full-screen. Instead of the now-standard flash-based fullscreen, which was not available when the movie was originally written, an ActiveX control is used to launch iexplore.exe in kiosk mode. A rewrite of the movie to fix this glaring problem is scheduled for Q1 next year. In the mean time, I nee...
Hello I've been Googling this one, on and off, for a few days now. When generating non-commercial Web sites, what's the best strategy when it comes to cross-browser testing? I use Windows 7 and Textpad to develop my HTML/CSS/JavaScript/PHP - i.e.: no dreamweaver, kompozer, Etc. I currently test using Firefox 3.6 and IE8. The last ti...

My website current is in C# .NET 3.5. So the main structure of the website is like so: A Master Page has a menu bar using jquery up top and below that, a ContentPlaceHolder encapsulated with an Update Panel so the content in the ContentPlaceHolder can update without the whole page flashing. Depending on the page you go to and the 'mode...
Hi, I want to select a radio button from javascript. I am using this simple html file to test the issue. The code below works correctly on firefox and chrome, however it does not work in IE (no version works). I would like to know why the supplied code does not work on IE, and how to select a radio button in IE? <html> <head> <scri...
I've been building a form all day and doing most of my dev in webkit browsers because of the good developer tools. I went to test in IE and I'm having some really strange results with regards to having 3 columns of divs in a row. I can't seem to find a fix. Has anybody seen this issue before (see link below)? http://65.61.167.68/form/ ...
I need to download a BMP with JavaScript and render it to the screen, in Internet Explorer. First off, yes, I know this is insane, I'm not going to get into why, let's just accept for a moment that img src is not working because of security constraints, but an ajax request with the proper authentication in the post will pull back the im...
Hi I'm not sure if this is the best approach so hoping for some advice. I have a pager that updates the page using ajax. I'd like the user to be able to select the size of the page they require I'm doing this with a form and some jquery which calls an action method that sets the Session["PageSize"] value which is used to determine how ...
A friend of mine had "a friend make a website" for her, but this person is no longer contactable, so she asked me "why it looks different in Firefox and the links don't work". Looking at the source, it seems to have been made with "Frontpage 5.0" but also has a "Microsoft Office" XML namespace. What I find interesting is that it appare...
I hope you can help me on this one. Here's a simplified version of my row object. Nothing special: a button, a title, and a content that slides down when the button is pressed. var row = function(title) { this.clear = $('<div/>').css({clear: 'both'}); this.$icon = $('<div/>').addClass('ui-icon ui-icon-carat-1-s'); this.$but...
Hi. The Flash player in this content slider gets artifacts on IE7, 8, and 9 Beta when the slider changes slides: http://bit.ly/9hhDY5 The text next to the video ends up going on top of the video in a jumbled way but clears up when you click the Play button. The slider looks fine on Firefox and Opera. I'm using Win7 64-bit Enterprise on ...
Hi I am using the following script (that requires the cookies plugin for jquery) to allow javascript enabled users to change the font size on a medical charity website: var sitefunctions = { textresize: function () { var $cookie_name = "TextSize"; var originalFontSize = $("html").css("font-size"); //...
I've tried numerous ways to get IE8 to reload a page but failed. IE just keeps using it's internal cache without asking the webserver for it. I'm sending the following headers from my webserver: Response.Add(new StringHeader("Expires", DateTime.UtcNow.AddYears(-1).ToString("r"))); Response.Add(new StringHeader("Cache-Control", "no-stor...
I have encountered an annoying bug with internet explorer on a javascript animation I made. I have a greyscale image of a city skyline which fades its opacity to 0, revealing a full-color skyline. It looks great in all other browsers, but IE reveals artifacts. (around the taxis, and the barr+barr text). A friend told me this is because...
I would like to be able to use vml objects on a page rendering in standards mode rather than quirks mode. I've found fragments of answers scattered around but can't figure it out. Raphael pulls it off somehow but I can't reverse it to figure out what's happening. Any basic working example would be great. ...
This is going to be a vague and obscure question, which is probably due to the fact that even using IE Web Developer, I have no idea what is going on. I have a utility which I am working on. It's mostly JavaScript, and it has a small floating DIV user interface that shows up on a page. So far, standard stuff. The problem is the backg...

As part of a project I'm working on, I need to load an AdMeld ad (a major ad network) inside of an <iframe>. I can't call the add directly due to complicated cross-browser limitations. Here is a very simple page that loads one of our ad slot, with rotating ad creatives: http://troy.onespot.com/static/stack_overflow/4949/iframe.html I ...
