HTML - Frames Not Working In Firefox
hello. i've been working on a website and everything works/looks fine except when viewing the site with firefox on a mac...
one of the pages has two frames that should work at the same time when a link is clicked on the page. however neither appear. i have another page which has only one frame and it is working fine. so i'm thinking there must be something in my code which is making it impossible for the two frames to work smoothly in firefox. i hope this makes sense... here is the problem page (with two frames, one to the left of the links and one above the links): and this page works fine (with one frame to the left of the links): if anyone can shed some light i'd really appreciate it, thankyou. Similar TutorialsI am a graphic designer which is almost a complete idiot about web design, i have some problem making a web site. While i try to open my web site in FIREFOX and IE it does not work. (while safari works well) the existing link is www.sindysindy.com when i click the targeted link on the top buttons (about&contact) it open up a new pop up page. I names the top frame as TOP, the bottom two named "menu" on the left and "mainframe" on the right. While clicking buttons on the "TOP" frame would show other buttons in menu targeting things to show up in "mainframe" i have already done a web site days ago and i am trying to redo it now : ( would be really really grateful if you can help Thank you very much indeed!

I am staying away from iFrames for search engine purposes. I am having a problem lining up a fixed background and content on both IE and Firefox. I can get everything to line up perfectly in Firefox but then IE misaligns everything. When I try to line it up in IE it still doesn't line up perfectly and then screws it up on Firefox. The style I am using is: body { margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; background: url(img/content_bg.jpg) top center fixed no-repeat; background-attachment: fixed;} It's being used on this page: http://therestaurantdesigngroup.com/new/main.htm (Look at it in IE and FF, currently it's working in FF only) The entire site with frames is http://therestaurantdesigngroup.com/new/ (Look at it in IE and FF) If you want to look at the source files download them he http://therestaurantdesigngroup.com/new/mbaweb.zip I am not worried about the bottom frame at this time. I want to fix main.htm first. Thanks! Ryan Hi, Not used frames before - done a bit of html but never had need previously to touch them. Just don't understand why this isn't working - 1x frameset (2 columns), 2x html for left and right, and a third html linked from the left frame that i'd like to load in the right. It doesn't - it loads in a new window. Any ideas? Many thanks Why does the following not work on firefox or IE, yet it works on safari... Could someone please help me, I cant even get any frames to display :S <html> <head> <title>History of the Internet, WWW and W3C.</title> <META name="description" content="The history of the , internet and W3C."> <META name="keywords" content="WWW, internet, W3C, WWW history, internet history, W3C history"> </head> <body> <frameset border="4" bordercolor="#000000" rows="50%,50%"> <frameset cols="20%,60%,20%"> <framesrc="backdrop.html" name="l_backdrop" noresize scrolling="no"> <frameset rows="25%,10%,65%"> <frame src="header.html" name="header" noresize scrolling="no"> <frame src="menu.html" name="menu" noresize scrolling="no"> <frame src="main.html" name="mainwindow" noresize scrolling="yes"> </frameset> <framesrc="backdrop.html" name="r_backdrop" noresize scrolling="no"> </frameset> </frameset> </body> </html> But it is working in Firefox, any clue why?

I am not a programmer, nor anykind of web professional, and I'm building this as an amateur. I have very basic knowledge of HTML and a bit of CSS, and that's pretty much it. Once the thing is ready to be released, it will have to be updated on a regular basis, and by people whose background and function have nothing to do with scripting (in fact, I cannot take care of it myself all the time since I'm leaving for Europe soon). Therefore, I resigned to using MS Word 2007 as the html editor, since it's the only software anyone can usen here to update the files without having to learn how to code (I haven't found any freeware that didn't require prior html knowledge and the company will not pay for a software liscence of any kind). I know MS word is basically the worst thing one can use to build a website, but I couldn't find any better for this scenario. Now I'm encountering a bit of a problem with the website, specifically with frames. The website (which is a frameset) is divided in two sections: a menu on the left (frame_menu), which is static should remain there all the time, and a frame to the right (frame_main) displaying the pages contents. Now, when a user clicks on a link in frame_menu, the content (page A) displays in frame_main, which is what I want. Then if someone clicks on a link in the page A in frame_main that links to another page (page B), it will open gain in frame_main, replacing the page A that was there. So far, this is the behavior I want, and the frame properties were set for this. The problem comes when the back button is used. If you are on page B, and then click the back button, you will come back to page A, in frame_main (so far still good), but any subsequent link the user will click after using the back button, whether it's a link in frame_menu or frame_main, will open in a new window, even though the default for opening links of the frame is set to frame_main as the target! This renders the frameset completely useless, and the whole frameset has to be closed and reloaded to function properly again. I know frames are deprecated. The only alternative I have found was to use CSS to simulate frames. However, from what I have read (and tell me if I am mistaken), it only simulates the fact that you have a "fixed" menu on every page, but the menu is NOT a separate html file, and has to be part of every page on the website. This makes the updating of the menu very tedious, as it has to be changed on every page of the website, were an item to be added to it. This is why I used frames to begin with: no need to update every page to add something to your menu, just update the menu.html file and voila. So I would like to know if you have any workaround for this problem. Any suggestion is appreciated. This was all tested with IE8. It's the only browser provided to the employees, I cannot use another one. This is part of the code (generated by MS Word of course) that contains the frametset <frameset framespacing=0 frameborder=0 border=0 cols="215,1*"> <frame name="frame_menu" src="file:///\\sv050\GROUPS\AGT\AGT-CDS\AGT-CDS-CR\helper\html\menu.htm" scrolling=no> <frame name="frame_main" src="file:///\\sv050\GROUPS\AGT\AGT-CDS\AGT-CDS-CR\helper\html\home.htm"> <noframes> <body lang=EN-US style='tab-interval:36.0pt'> <div class=WordSection1> <p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:10.0pt;line-height:115%'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;line-height:115%'>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.<o:p></o:p></span></p> </div> </body> </noframes> </frameset> If the entire script of the frameset.html is needed, tell me and I'll post it. Thanks in advance, Guill Hello all, I was wondering if anyone can help me, I a site look exactly right in IE7 but Firefox doesn't work... I'm guessing this will be the same as Safari. The site has been uploaded to here http://www.chappo.co.uk/years_ahead Please can someone show me where I'm going wrong... Thanks all!! Jason I really don't know much about html and I could use some help here. http://www.hazlethawks.com/hawks/cheer_news.asp there should be a link on the left menu that says "loud and proud" but it doesn't show up in firefox. IE works fine. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance I have some hmtl code that runs fine under Google Chrome but not under IE8 or Firefox. When i left click links on the left side panel, the linked text disappears until i release the mouse, and even then i am not redirected to the linked page.

Need someone to see source code and let us know WHAT AND WHY ? this is happening? We did get a response, but tried it and doesn't seem to be the answer, unless we are not doing something right. PLEASE, PLEASE HELP US. a.s.a.p. THANK YOU I'm building a small website with only 5 links. Two of the links work fine while the other three are non-functional in Firefox. All links work fine, as they should from what I can gather, in IE. If anyone could take a gander at the code and point out anything they see that Firefox might not like I'm all ears. I'm totally baffled on this one. I know all the inline CSS makes for cluttered code but it's such a small website I didn't feel like creating a style sheet and having to switch back and forth. I'm using Firefox/3.5.12 for testing the site in Firefox btw. UPDATE: Problem solved. Had to undo some particular jerryrigging elswhere on the page to overcome a strange gap that there was no rhyme or reason should be there. Found another solution and now the links work fine. code: <div style="position: relative; top: 0; left: 0; width: 634px;"> <div style="position: relative; top: 30px; left: 85px; width: 80px; height: 30px; background-image: url(images/blk-gry-light-bg.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-x; font-size: 16px; text-align: center; padding: 5px; float: left;"><a style="color: #000000;" href="index.html">home</a></div> <div style="position: relative; top: 30px; left: 105px; width: 80px; height: 30px; background-image: url(images/blk-gry-bg.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-x; font-size: 16px; text-align: center; padding: 5px; float: left;"><a href="walking.html">dogwalking</a></div> <div style="position: relative; top: 30px; left: 125px; width: 80px; height: 30px; background-image: url(images/blk-gry-bg.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-x; font-size: 16px; text-align: center; padding: 5px; float: left;"><a href="sitting.html">dogsitting</a></div> <div style="position: relative; top: 30px; left: 145px; width: 80px; height: 30px; background-image: url(images/blk-gry-bg.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-x; font-size: 16px; text-align: center; padding: 5px; float: left;"><a href="rates.html">our rates</a></div> <div style="position: relative; top: 30px; left: 165px; width: 80px; height: 30px; font-size: 16px; background-image: url(images/blk-gry-bg.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-x; text-align: center; padding: 5px; float: left;"><a href="contact.php">contact us</a></div> </div> Hi All, I am new to these forums but I am a long time, 20+ years, programmer and have been working with html for many of those years but I am no expert.

Some of the pages will now be accessible to outside users so I thought I needed to test on more browsers and I have found an issue with some HTML not working in FF. <DIV id="idser" class="InnerBox" style="position: absolute; top: 80; left: 400; height: 68; width: 130"> <A class="link" onClick="dshow('idserdet'); dhide('idnew'); dhide('idview'); dhide('idser'); dhide('idhist'); dhide('idreq'); dhide('idgrn'); dhide('idtran'); dhide('idxfer')"> <IMG SRC="/images/barcode.gif HEIGHT="34" WIDTH="100" BORDER="0"> </A> <br> <A class="link" onClick="dshow('idserdet'); dhide('idnew'); dhide('idview'); dhide('idser'); dhide('idhist'); dhide('idreq'); dhide('idgrn'); dhide('idtran'); dhide('idxfer')"> Serial # Search </A> </DIV> <DIV id="idhist" class="InnerBox" style="position: absolute; top: 80; left: 530; height: 68; width: 130"> <A HREF="http://dev.au.av.ae.ge.com/cgi-bin/saafpcgi/none/sapsco6/zz/dev/ivreview" class="link"> <IMG SRC="/images/history.gif HEIGHT="34" WIDTH="32" BORDER="0"> </A> <br> <A HREF="http://dev.au.av.ae.ge.com/cgi-bin/saafpcgi/none/sapsco6/zz/dev/ivreview" class="link"> View History </A> </DIV> Both lots of code above work in IE, the first DIV with link does not work in FF. I have tried adding the onClick to the DIV and removed the anchors, I have made HREF="#" and also HREF="javascript;;" and several other permutations but none seem to make the link work in FF. I have spend hours on this now. Any/All thoughts/advice will be gratefully accepted. Hi, I've just finished creating the layout for my website. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me why my text does not fit in the boxes that I have created using layers while in Internet Explorer it seems to work fine.

Can anyone please shed some light on the issue - i have not added any strange script on it Well, this is my page. Next time I will use div, but for now this is what I'v got. http://grimstad.uia.no/nokomdet/bile...ikk/index.html For some reason, when using firefox, all the hyperlinks that is not text (menu, and other parts of the site) will not be made as buttons, only the smapp space is linkable. If you understand. In IE and Opera however, it works smooth. Any idea why? Or how to fix this? deadline was 2 hours ago, but I might have the time to fix it, if I can have your help.. I am testing a clients site, and have it on a local server, and bringing it up in Firefox and Internet Explorer 7 to try and work out the bugs, and for some reason, there are images that are not coming up in Explorer, but coming up just fine in Firefox. Any ideas why? |
