Firefox/Explorer Difficulties


Guest

Recommended Posts

Posted

My website looks great on firefox but the pictures are squished on my main page on explorer. I realize my customers will come from different browsers....how do I get my website to at least look decent on explorer?

 

Also, another site of mine here will pull up the image on firefox but just shows a string of code on explorer. I am in the process of putting up an os database but I need the placeholder image to show up on explorer. Am I missing something?

 

Thanks so much. Autumn

Look at the HTML source on the first site.

 

All the squashed images say this there:

 

width=""

 

IE is a stupid browseer and probably interprets that as ZERO.

 

Firefox is a bit smarter. At least it displays something.

 

The second link the source is:

 

<img src="http://www.mandersonline.com/temp.jpg>

 

Try this:

 

<img src="http://www.mandersonline.com/temp.jpg">

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

Well, I went in and changed all the widths to width="50". Sigh. It didn't work.

 

I'm so totally stumped!

The HTML hasn't changed.

You might want to check your site for "strange" files or code.

 

Looking at your page cache in google (dated Jun 25, 2010 12:03:39 GMT) there are "invisible" spam links at the end of the page source.

 

This can only mean that site security was compromised at that time.

 

Your current page doesn't match the cached page (stylewise) so I hope while you've been altering the look you've also removed any "bug-a-boos" (*COUGH* *COUGH*) that might have been lurking...

:blush:

Well then....that's not nice....how do invisible spam links get put on. Is there a certain file I need to look at? There are a million! Well, it seems that way anyways....lol. The only files I have been changing have to do with the looks of the site....headers, footers, index pages. Not sure I even know what a spam link looks like. How did you see them if I may ask? How do I see my page cache?

 

Thanks again for your help! And I swear I did change the file. Saved, uploaded and had to approve it overwriting so I know it did. Is there somewhere ELSE that I need to change the information that goes on the front page? Those imgs are on my index.php file in includes/languages/english/index.php

Ok, I got the pictures fixed on explorer. Now to invisible links.

How to Secure Your Site

 

Read the above thread for suggestions on how to keep this from happening. Your admin isn't renamed or protected by a .htaccess file. My first guess would be that is how they "got in" (described in the first post in the link above).

 

Another security topic is being rehashed here

 

 

Is there a certain file I need to look at?

 

Once site security has been breached every file is guilty until proven innocent by inspection.

 

Not sure I even know what a spam link looks like. How did you see them if I may ask? How do I see my page cache?

 

Your page cache is here

 

Go to that link, <right-click> choose "View source", go to the bottom of the source code.

 

The good news is google crawled the site again on July 8.

 

The bad news is the spam is still there.

:'(

 

You won't find the links in the files on your site as it appears in the cache.

 

The despicable sub-humans who do this obfuscate (hide) their work. I would guess what you need to look for will probably look something like the code described here, although you won't find it at the top of the file. More likely at the bottom. I only posted the link to show you what the code you need to look for might look like in your files.

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.
