HELP: Firefox OK - but Explorer not displaying images, no style, all links broken. Text only.

[McCambletron]

OSC looks great in Firefox, but everything is broke to hell in Internet Explorer.

 

Unfortunately, I've been working in firefox almost exclusively --so I have no idea when the site broke, and don't have an old enough backup to try and fix it!

 

http://www.ocdepot.com/oscom/

 

It's like this on every page. All links look like "http:///advanced_search.php", and image paths are wrong too.

Nobody has any idea?

I suspect a browser cache issue, reset it, just looked with ie7 & all looks fine

[McCambletron]

Thanks for the reply... I actually JUST fixed it, and was on my way over here to explain how for future users with problems. You must have seen it just after my fix was uploaded.

 

Here was my problem for anyone interested:

 

in /includes/configure.php, the lines

  define('HTTP_SERVER', ' '); // eg, [url="http://localhost"]http://localhost[/url] - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('HTTPS_SERVER', ' '); // eg, [url="https://localhost"]https://localhost[/url] - should not be empty for productive servers

NEEDED TO BE CHANGED TO:

  define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.yoursite.com/catalog/'); // eg, [url="http://localhost"]http://localhost[/url] - should not be empty for productive servers
 define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.yoursite.com/catalog/'); // eg, [url="https://localhost"]https://localhost[/url] - should not be empty for productive servers

 

For some reason having nothing in the http_server section worked just fine in Firefox, but wouldn't work in IE... Also, 'localhost' would NOT work for me in Explorer. Now, all CSS and Images are showing up in both Explorer and Firefox!

IE6 is OK as well.
