HTML - My Background Won't Download In Firefox
I've noticed that *sometimes* my background image won't show up in Mozzila Firefox. My website is he http://www.surrealsource.com. Note that I said *sometimes* so it might download fine for you. But anyway, if you want to see the code, the only relevant part is this:
Code: <body style="background-image: url('background.jpg');"> Similar TutorialsI have a lot of mp3's on my website for download. I want the download box to pop up when you click on the file so you can choose whether to save it or open it. It works fine in Internet Explorer. In Firefox it starts streaming the song in quicktime, which forces me to right click and hit 'save as' if I actually want to download it. Why does Firefox do this? I did find a few threads on this topic by searching the forums. Their solution was to use a lengthy php script. I was wondering if there was an easier way to do this possibly with some simple html code. Thanks. Hello Everyone, I am putting together a web site that will allow folks to listen to some audio files (.mp3). I do not want them to have the ability to down load them. Do do this, I create an href to the file: <a href="birdcall001.mp3"> This seems to work fine in Microsoft's IE. Microsoft IE brings up the audio player and plays the file. However if I use the Firefox browser, a dialog box comes up and gives the user the choice to listen to the file or to download it. Is there a way to prevent Firefox from giving the user the option to download the file? New to this, but having a lot of fun! Thanks for any help! Steve Told you I was new at this. Additional testing shows: They can also download the file in IE by simply right clicking on the reference. So I guess the real question is "is there a way to allow users to listen to a .mp3 file, but prevent them from downloading the file" Thanks for any insight! Hi, I have a very simple website with a countdown timer on it (http://lemoeonline.freehostia.com/1.htm sorry about all the crap, it should only really have the countdown on it....I forgot to delete the rest). What I am wanting to do is have a separate webpage where users can download that page, but with a date they specify in a form. So, they would go to page a, enter a date, then download page b witch would have the customized code in it......Is this possible? Im not really sure where to start on this one, so im looking for any suggestions! Thanks alot, Lemoe Hi, I have searched the forums for an answer to this question, but I couldn't find anything that solves my problem. I have designed a site in Dreamweaver. http://www.dirt-e-riders.com In IE 6 and IE 7 it shows correctly, but in firefox the backgound image for my table doesn't show. In effect I have two main tables, each sized at 100% width. Table 1 is at the top of the page and contains a bg. in jpg format Table 2 is just below that and also contains a bg. in gif format I didnt make the bg for table1 a gif cause the quality is too poor. The bg for table1 does not show, but the bg for table 2 does. I have already tried to read the bg from my CSS with no repeat but it does the same. Could someone please help me. I'm new to web design. Your help will be greatly appresiated. Thanks My tables background color (done with dreamweaver) isn't showing correctly in Firefox. but is in internet explorer. Code: <td colspan="2" rowspan="4" bgcolor="de8801">TEXT</td> is the code I'm using to define the background color? Can anyone help?! Anders Hi, I'm currently trying to get a submit (post) button to open the target page In a background tab in firefox, i.e. not auto switching to the new tab. I have heard something about firefox not supporting "focus ()" (at least i think thats it, im kind of a newb) due to security reasons, so is there any way around this at all? Thanks, Dani Hey there, I've got a problem with my BG colour on a very simple page. I've uploaded this page he http://www.alastairq.co.uk/s-gaming The Web page looks like it should in FireFox 2 but in IE 6, the colour is completely wrong. Could anyone help me? Thanks, alastairq hi, can someone tell me how to write a link to force the download option to appear in the browser when my link to an XML page is clicked, not just open it as a page in the browser. Cheers Martin Hi, I like to know how to make a file download in a new window, like most sites have, I want to add some adsense in that page along with the link to the manual download link if automatic download fails. Thnx Hello everybody I have a question, might be dumb but... Lets assume i have a link to an image on a page, is it possible to make a code or script or something so when i click on the link to that image, it downloads it not open it in the browser??????? i know i dont have the best choice of words but i hope u understand my request thanks I have set up some document downloads with <a href>NameofDocument</a> , but everytime a user downloads a document a blank browser window opens and then comes the pop up to either save or open in Office. Any ideas on how to keep this blank browser window from opening or being created. i have absolutely no room on my comuter, not even enought to download a template and i just need the template code and then you can delete it, so can someone just download it and then give me the .html code? here is the template, thanks in advance! http://www.tunedstudios.com/comments/template/0/10/ Hi all My Site is hosted on linux site and i have basic cgi scripts for page counters, but does anyone know how i can create a download counter for files which can be made visible to users. I want the content to be updates live on the site ( basic count per click ) http://www.pellapushers.co.uk/mashups.html Is this possible with html code or should i be looking at cgi Regards, Alan Hi: I would like the senior folks of my mobile home Park to be able to download a .pdf telephone directory file of our 600 home Park. I have created the file, and I'll be placing it on my Apache Server -- probably in my '..\images\' directory. Question: Would someone please give me an example of the html code needed to download a file of this type ? Thank you. -Mel I've seen these sites all over the place used generally for adult sites but I was wondering if there's a script out there for it. I want a pay per download site but not for adult content, for video and indie films. I have placed some mp3 files into a folder in my httpdocs. Then I emailed the link to a file. When I select the emailed link, the mp3 plays. But I'd like to download the file, but I don't see where/how. When I right click the link, my only choices a Select All Look Up... Translate... The greyed-out (unavailable) choices a Cut Copy Paste Clear Shouldn't it be when I right click the link the choices should be Save Save As I'm using IE, and the same is true when i put the url in the browser of when I Alt-F. Save is still greyed out. How can I do this correctly so it's easy to download the file? Thanks. How I could make a download option using HTML. Thanks in advance Is there a way to setup a link to download (or offer to download with the open/save box) a jpeg rather than display it in the browser? I have a scenario where a user uploads any file (any format) to a webserver, the webserver manipulates the file then allows the user to download the file. So far I can successfully upload a file to the server. However I am having trouble allowing the user to download a file. I read that streaming the file from the server to the user is better then providing a link to the file on the server. However with my attempts at streaming, I often find the file contents being displayed on the page. Whereas I simply want the file to be downloaded to the users hard disk, or preferably an option that allows the user to accept or decline before downloading the file. Could anyone please give me an example? |
