    Any clever IE people in here - odd problem

    Posted 18 years 9 months ago
    • Hello all..

      I am working on a Joomla site for my school. Joomla is controling most of the stuff on the site, but a few dynamic features are controlled via a link to a wrapper.

      Everything works like it should in FireFox, but I suddenly got a problem with IE (it has worked before, and I have not touched anything relating to the problem). So here is the first problem...

      We have some urls from another cms that we need to use in that system, they are log-ins for parents and students. The main Joomla site is located here:

      www.krhskole.dk/site

      Under the menu "login" there are two sublinks called "Forældreintra" and "Elevintra", the original urls for these two sections are:

      www.krhskole.skoleintra.dk/Pi/Default.asp

      and www.krhskole.skoleintra.dk/Infoweb/Fi/Login.asp

      Directly they both work in IE and FF. But when wrapped the first link gets completely corrupted in IE - check out this url:

      www.krhskole.dk/site/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=66

      Forældreintra on the other hand works in both IE and FF via a Joomla Wrapper:

      www.krhskole.dk/site/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=65

      I simply cant figure out what is suddenly wrong. There are no difference in the menu parameters for the two sections.

      Anyone got a clue about this one?

      Another problem I also got, is concerning an embeded Flash Gallery. The swf file wont load in IE (again it has worked and it is working with the direct url to the swf file). In Firefox there no problems at all. The code I have used is this:
      <OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
      codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"
      WIDTH="600" HEIGHT="400" id="tester">
      <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="tester.swf">
      <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
      <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF>
      <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
      <EMBED src="http://www.krhskole.dk/site/images/tester.swf" wmode="transparent" quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="600" HEIGHT="400"
      NAME="myMovieName" ALIGN="" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
      PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">
      </EMBED>
      </OBJECT>

      The url to the gallery is this:

      www.krhskole.dk/site/index.php?option=co...view&id=39&Itemid=56

      I first thought this was a local IE problem on my computer, but I have checked all this on different computers and the problem is still there.

      Any clues?

      With kind regards
      Thomas

    • A lot of views on this one, but no response....I'm having the same problem playing any flash on IE with the RT templates. Works fine on firefox, but fails completely on IE. Says it can't open the link and the operation is aborted. Anybody? Anybody? :)

    • Have you fixed it already?

      It is working fine in IE 6 on my end. . .

      I don't know about the Flash, I'll take a look though.

    • No such luck :( ...but what it seems like is that the simple introduction of all the RT "fancy footwork" interferes...the problem occurs even if I paste the Joomla link directly into the address bar.... the site is a Work-in-progress at 168.156.127.28/afs  ; (you'll have to register)

    • Further research found a post by you about the slimbox.js script. I've removed the reference to slimbox, reflections, and "whatever the other one was", and it all seems to be fine now!!

    • Yes, as today's youth might say, IE is the suck.

      I still don't know how to fix those problems for real, simply disabling the script works, but only if one does not want the slimbox.

    • Hi Thomas,

      Both issues seem to work fine for me on IE7 and FF2. Did you correct this already?

    • Fixed it by removing the slimbox/reflections/mootools script inclusions. Was able to replicate the problem on about a half dozen machines.
