HTML - Problem With Embedded Object And Anomaly Only Occurring In Firefox

Hello,

I've created a table that should be automatically populated by data from a text file. It works fine in IE but is displayed blank in Firefox. Can anyone tell me why that might be?

Code:

<object id="members" classid="clsid:333C7BC4-460F-11D0-BC04-0080C7055A83"> 
<param name="DataURL" value="../../secure/Membership/contacts.txt"> 
<param name="UseHeader" value="True"> 
</object> 

<TABLE datasrc="#members" border="0" cellspacing="5" cellpadding="8" align="center"> 
<THEAD> 
<TR> 
<TD><strong>Name</strong></TD>       
<TD><strong>Organisation</strong></TD>       
<TD><strong>Telephone</strong></TD> 
<TD><strong>E-mail</strong></TD>       
</TR> 
</THEAD> 
<TBODY> 
<TR> 

<TD><DIV datafld="NAME" ></DIV></font></TD> 

<TD><DIV datafld="ORGANISATION"></DIV></font></TD> 
                
<TD><DIV datafld="TELEPHONE" DATAFORMATAS="html"></DIV></font></TD> 
                
<TD><DIV datafld="E-MAIL" DATAFORMATAS="html"></DIV></font></TD> 
                
</TR> 
</TBODY> 
</TABLE>

Thanks for any help ,

Hi there.Today,on a test page i decided to put a .swf movie using the object tag.After writing this code Code:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="video\index.swf" width="472" height="266" border="0" standby="Va rugam,asteptati.In proces de incarcare...">
<PARAM name="movie" value="video\index.swf">
<PARAM name="quality" value="high">
<PARAM name="bgcolor" value="#000000">
</OBJECT>

i got(and i still get) a blank square filled with white color in Firefox and a black filled square in IE(this is actually the Flash Player,but for some reason it won't play the file).
Please tell me,what's wrong : Me or the code? I really need some help.

I have recently made a couple of small websites which include a few small .swf's of work I have done. I am inserting the objects via the Object tags, and shown below is what I use.

Code:

<OBJECT ID="FlashPlayer"
CLASSID="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" 
CODEBASE="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" 
WIDTH="481" 
HEIGHT="350" 
ID="my file ID">
<PARAM NAME="movie" VALUE="the file location" />
<PARAM NAME="allowScriptAccess" VALUE="sameDomain" />
<PARAM NAME="bgcolor" VALUE="#ffffff" />
</object>

Upon loading said webpage in IE, the content loads....

... but it does not load at all in the latest version of Firefox.

I would be most grateful if someone could tell me what I am doing wrong, or what the correct tags are for Firefox. I have checked the search function and apologise if I did not see it mentionned in my list of search results.

Kind regards.

Hi,
I have an activex control which loads with object tag. I use the windows registry key value to load the class. When i run the code from a local machine it works fine, but when i upload to a unix based server, the controls do not load. Is there something I am doing wrong?

The following code works in Firefox AND validates as XHTML 1.0 Strict:

<object codetype="application/java" classid="java:lake.class" width="423" height="567">
<param name="image" value="lovetide.jpg" />
</object>

It displays the image, and the applet simulates ocean waves on the image.

However, this code does NOT work in IE (no image displayed at all). Any idea how to do this in IE in a way that will still validate?

I did some searches on the Web, and found an article that pointed out IE handles <object> differently from other browsers. Based on that article, I tried this:

<!--[if IE]>
<object classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" width="423" height="567">
<param name="code" value="lake.class" />
<param name="image" value="lovetide.jpg" />
</object>
<![endif]-->

<!--[if !IE]> Not executed by IE-->
<object type="application/x-java-applet" classid="java:lake.class" width="423" height="567">
<param name="image" value="lovetide.jpg" />
</object>
<!--[endif]-->

Still works with Firefox but not IE. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Here's the link to my test web page with a short slideshow embedded in it.
http://www.prestigekitchensandbaths.com/test/index.html

The slideshow movie is in FLV format, and it works fine in FF, Opera and Safari. Funny thing is that it works fine in IE when I test it on my desktop (Windows XP), but it won't work at all when I test it in IE on my laptop (Windows 7). Any idea why that would be?

I'm using the FLV Player to play my video, as it gives me nearly all the parameters I was looking for, it doesn't require any scripting, and it's open source. Also, it seems to work with all the major browsers while not forcing me to use the EMBED tag, which is deprecated now and shouldn't be used. But it still boggles my mind why it would work in IE on one of my computers but not on the other.

I wanted to know. I have in the site of player okay? He for example now plays a song now with someone presses on connection in the site then this opens the page that he requested but the player does not play only when that blast opened he starts more this time to play.

Thx for the helpers

thank you for taking the time to help. Being very new at HTML codes, I almost got it where I want it. The problem I have I can't see one of the objects in the web page.

Can someone show me why its not showing up. Now be kind to me, like I said I so new at this. This will be my second day working with HTML. The codes that I do have. was pasted in from various web sites.

The code as follows:

Hello,

I am wondering if something is possible.. and if it is, how I would go about accomplishing the desired result..

This is a sample page to illustrate the problem
http://comp.uark.edu/~bcagnin/test/index.html

Is there a way to resize the object from a link that is within the website being displayed in that very same object??

Also, I am willing to use iframe if there is a solution that can be found with that... Thanks!!

Hi,

Ive got a bit of a problem with the website im creating. This is the bit of code thats affecting the browser (I believe).

For some reason It works perfectly in safari, but not in IE or firefox. I wont post all the source code here as there is quite alot, but the website is alesofdevon.com/betatest/mysql.php?id=1 if you need anymore info from it.

Thanks
Scott.

I'm new to web design so I hope this makes sense to someone. I am trying to make a website for a new buisness, I'm using text wrangler on a mac to write the code and have been checking my progress in Safari. I have just checked the site on firefox and the banner at the top isn't showing up?

Hi,

<input name="Submit2" value="1" type="image" id="Submit2" src="images/Freshupdaterecordbutton.jpg" alt="Update" width="160" height="50" border="0">


The above image is a button within a form. If I click on the button, I can check the parameters passed via the form.

The following tells me how long the "Submit2" parameter is using ASP

strRequest = Request.Form("Submit2")
strRequest = len(strRequest)
response.Write(strRequest)
Response.end()

In Firefox 2, the length of "Submit2" is 1
In IE 7, "Submit2" is 0


I need them both to be 1. How can I do this? Is it something to do with the NAME and ID tags? The NAME and ID tags are unique on the form.

Cheers,
Alski
