Topic: Images disappearing Posted: January 09 2013 at 16:05 |
Groovy
Since it appears that the combination of Chrome and and Adblock are causing problems on oversized images and that has nothing to do with Web Wiz forum software or the PA database software (since the html used is standard and valid). It doesn't solve the problem of course, but it does mean that there is nothing we can do to solve it either. I suspect that Adblock resizes the images to height="" .. or zero, which is why they disappear.

Ah... that's interesting. Your original avatar image is huge - all I did was resize it to a width of 153 px. Perhaps that is the problem.
I've now switched to a huge avatar image too - does that disappear? |
Yup

When I am in the What Are You Listening to Now thread many of the pictures just show as a red x, until I right-click on them and have it show image. This seems to happen in Internet Explorer, but wasn't happening when I was testing Firefox. I assume that it probably has something to do with one of my Internet Settings, that I probably need to check or uncheck a box, but I have no clue what that box would be. It is also fairly inconsistent as to when I can view images and when I can't.

My avatar would be an example of one that disappears, and yours would be one that doesn't.

Okay - show me images that do and images that don't and I'll see if I can find any thing different.

Nope, it's "alt=" for images that disappear and ones that don't

Try hovering over a couple of the offending images and selecting "Inspect Image" from the right-mouse button menu. If the html looks like this:
<img src="webaddress_url" alt="some_text">
or
<img src="webaddress_url" title="some_other_text">
then that may be the cause.

The problem is that they disappear when I hover, meaning I can't right click before they're gone.

I've had the issue on both Mac (Lion?) and PC (Windows 7). No toolbars enabled. The only add-on that I have kept on both systems is ad-block (Chrome). After trying other browsers, Firefox and IE 8 do not seem to have this issue. From what I know, other websites do not seem to have this issue.
