    replied to Dropdown menu not working in IE
    hi there, you have an illegal character (») in your onmouseout javascript function in the <head> section of your page - this is preventing the dropdown from changing when you move away from it...see below

    Code:
    node.onmouseout=function() {
    64 this.className=this.className.replace»
    this should be
    Code:
    node.onmouseout=function() {
    64 this.className=this.className.replace

  • IE6 navbar position changing when form submitted..

    This is a long shot, but I have no idea why my navbar is being temperamental in IE6. Everything looks ok on page load, but when you fill out the online form and click Submit, the navbar either disappears or goes about 100px where it should be, then when you hover over each menu item, the navbar goes back to where it should be!

    I'm using an AJAX form which dynamically inserts a loading bar and success/failure mesage without reloading...

    IE6 page height problem

    Hi, I've just developed a website which renders fine on Firefox, IE7 and Safari, but as usual has needed some surgery for IE6. I'm now left with a problem which I can't seem to fix. I have a footer which should should just attach to the bottom of my main container background image (as can be seen in IE7 and FF), but in IE6 the container div element seems to be adding space between the content div and the footer (and occasionally after the footer...

    Making AJAX loaded content accessible

    Hi, apologies in advance is this may be a nonsensical ramble, but I'm hoping someone can give me some advice on how to solve the following problem:

    I'm developing a site where the main content is loaded dynamically (and using a fade effect) into a placeholder div using AJAX. This is all working fine, however the tricky part for me is making the site accessible by using unobtrusive javascript.

    Adding onload event to AJAX loaded div

    Hi, I'm trying to integrate a photo gallery into a site where the content section of the page is loaded using AJAX. I'm using Lightbox for the gallery and although the gallery works fine as a separate page, I now need to add the following events to the <div> containing the gallery:
    Code:
    onload="focus_first_input(); initLightbox();"
    Does anyone know how I can add these to the <div> whenever it is loaded?

    Flash Menu with AJAX driven page content

    Hi, i'm completely new to AJAX - but i'd like to get started with it. I'm starting development work on a small website which will have a flash menu. I'd like to emulate a frame-based layout by keeping the menu fixed and only changing content in one section of the page (enclosed in a <div>), according to the page the user is on. Is this straightforward to integrate using Flash and AJAX? I'm a little unsure if i can add javascript function calls...

    IE text wrap problem - FF working fine

    Hi, i'm having a problem wrapping text around an image in IE. Firefox works perfectly, with the image floating to the right, then the text displaying alongside the image until it gets beyond the image, where it spreads out to full width. In IE, the text displays alongside the image, however, when it reaches the bottom of the image it continues to stay at a narrow width until that paragraph is finished. This can look pretty poor if it is a long paragraph....

  • Image upload - possible to compress before uploading?

    Hi there,

    I'm brand new to ASP (from PHP background) and i am developing some content management for a web site. I'm having a problem with the fact that I want to allow image files to be uploaded to a remote web server, as the hosting package the web site is on is IIS6 and has a default file upload size limit of 200kb. As it's a shared hosting package, the default limit cannot be changed for me, therefore I'm stuck with the problem...

    Problem styling a scrollbar inside a frame

    Hi, before you say it i know frames are bad practice - but i'm developing dynamic content on a site which has already been designed, so alas there's no option but to use them. Anyway, I just want to add simple styling to the scrollbar of the left hand frame of the page, but the styling i've applied isn't working for some reason.

    The site is at http://www.maguiresonline.co.uk/new_website/index.html

    replied to IE 6 Positioning Disaster
    thks for the reply - i had validated earlier today and couldn't see what could be causing my problem, realise i still should have corrected the errors though before posting - apologies. i've now corrected all of the errors apart from those relating to the properties of my flash menu as i'm not keen on messing around with them.

    grateful for any help if you can see where the problem might lie

    IE 6 Positioning Disaster

    Hi there, I've uncovered a problem which I only have with IE6, surprise surprise. I have a centered layout for the main content of my web page and I am populating the main section with tabulated data pulled from a database. However, in IE6, the main section of the page is pushed to the left, while the background image (a gold box) i've used to contain the table data has been pushed out to the right.

    The strange thing about this is...

  • First time using ASP to connect to remote MySQL database

    Hi, I'm a PHP developer and i've been asked to do some development for a site which is on a web server which only supports ASP. I had planned to have a bash at writing an ASP program (first time) on this server which will interact with a MySQL database on another web server (my company's web space). Would this be possible?

  • Problem with navbar background image - hyperlinking whitespace

    Hi, I've created a nav bar using a background image for rollover effects. Everything works as I had hoped, however, for some reason it seems that an area of whitespace (the same size of the background image) is hyperlinked underneath the nav bar. I can't see any errors in the coding below. Any ideas what may be causing this?

    thanks for the reply, it did seem to be a problem only on one computer running IE6. i do use firefox and safari primarily but the site would definitely also have to work properly on IE6 due to the number of people still using it.

    Different versions of IE6?

    Hi, I've had to use a hack to position a navbar correctly in IE6. The only thing is, on one of the computers in our office it is displaying perfectly in IE6, while on another one, the nav bar is missing. Both pcs are using XP and IE6 so i've no idea why this would be happening. Any ideas why this could be happening? I've not been able to find anything so far on the web.

    Here is the link to the page

    i'm using XHTML 1.0 Transitional - could this be the problem? i usually use XHTML Strict, however, i'm helping out a friend with this problem and he has created his site using Dreamweaver. I had to strip out deprecated tags and styling within the HTML.

    Another IE6 navbar position problem....

    Hi, i've been searching for a solution to this problem but haven't had any joy yet. I have a navbar which positions perfectly in Safari, FF and IE7 - but in IE6, it is pushed out to the right of the page. I'm pretty new to CSS and don't know how to resolve this. If anyone could help, that would be great!

    i'll just post the navbar html and css for now as i'm pretty sure that's where the problem lies
