Is there an html code for?

HTML code different when requested from same Server on different computers

  • I have a website www.jimboringrealestate.com in which the banner at the top of the page (images/banner.jpg) fails to display in a few customers? Internet Explorer v6 web browsers. By failing to display I mean that there isn?t even a placeholder for where the banner would be or no little red ?x? in the box as if it couldn?t read the picture. The source code downloaded from the server just doesn?t contain the IMG syntax to view the banner. I had two similar laptops hooked to the same dsl line, running the same version of IE 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158 with Update Version SP2, and one displays the banner and the other one doesn?t. They are both XP machines. There are other customers out in the ?world? that have also reported not being able to view the banner. Some of these are desktop models as well. In looking at the html source code on each laptop for the index.htm page, here is a snippet of the one that works: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title content="">Jim Boring Real Estate Investments - Idaho Farm, Ranch, Home and Business Property For Sale</title> <meta name="keywords" content="removed for bevity"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta name="description" content="Removed for brevity"> </head> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff link="#990000" vlink="#4B0612" alink="#993333" topMargin=10 marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"> <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=744 align=center border=0> <TBODY> <TR> <TD colspan="2"><img src="images/banner.jpg" alt="Jim Boring Real Estate Investments" width="751" height="171"></TD> </TR> <TR> etc. ------ The only difference in the non-working source was that it took the line <TD colspan="2"><img src="images/banner.jpg" alt="Jim Boring Real Estate Investments" width="751" height="171"></TD> and made it <TD colspan="2"></TD> The whole <img> construct just isn?t in the code. I do not use any server side inserts ? nothing fancy, just plain old Dreamweaver generated vanilla code. I am looking for a solution to this problem.

  • Answer:

    Hi, Replace from the body tag down to the first row of your table ---- THIS ----- <BODY bgColor=#ffffff link="#990000" vlink="#4B0612" alink="#993333" topMargin=10 marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"> <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=744 align=center border=0> <TBODY> <TR> <TD colspan="2"><img src="images/banner.jpg" alt="Jim Boring Real Estate Investments" width="751" height="171"></TD> </TR> ------------------- with this --------- THAT ---------- <BODY bgColor=#ffffff link="#990000" vlink="#4B0612" alink="#993333" topMargin=10 marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"> <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=752 align=center border=0> <TBODY> <TR> <TD><img src="http://www.jimboringrealestate.com/images/banner.jpg" alt="Jim Boring Real Estate Investments" width="751" height="171"></TD> </TR> </table> <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=744 align=center border=0> <TBODY> --------------------------- Replace your banner.jpg file with this one (save a copy of your original first of course) http://www.webadept.net/banner_lite.jpg Rename it to banner.jpg and put it on your server. This is probably not the problem but your original is 42k in size. The one I have there is about half that size and will load much faster. And let me know how that turns out. If all is right with your world I'll write you up an explanation of all the minor changes I made for your future reference. webadept-ga
