Photo Gallery Forums

Has anyone had the problem I am having with Internet Explorer 7's inability to display my gallery? I checked the add-ons section and found that Shockwave and all the necessary plugins were installed and enabled. Hey, it worked when I had version 5. The new Firefox browser has no problems- This problem isn't cool. I mean, I couldn't figure out how to make it work and most people will just go away instead of fight with the almighty Microsoft, who believes in it's arrogance that it is always right. Anybody know the settings to adjust to make Imagevue display? I dread the idea of going through MS bs to ask why this is a problem and if they can fix it. Shouldn't have to.

Can we have a link please? Shockwave or Flash plugin is installed? Do you see imagevue on our site? Can you see flash on other sites?

Nick,

I'm getting the same thing at all ImageVue links: www.photo.gallery imagevue gallery module text display is all that appears on the screen. Other Flash programs are behaving differently, like having to click on a Flash menu to enable the mouse overs to work (an alt message to click on this to get it to work appears). Yes, other Flash is appearing. This renders many menu items hard to understand. Anyway, the issue is that ImageVue isn't displaying in IE7 on my machine, no matter what I do. I have enabled all previously working plug-ins, including Shockwave and Flash...I've requested a response from MS on this, as well as submitted forum help on their website for the not at all cool browser. I thought it must be some setting that I have not been able to find...I don't like the idea of having to prompt people on how to get into my gallery...it's too complicated and I've yet to discover the method to the madness

I am using IE7 for a few weeks now, and everything works fine over here.

I also see this text when I open a gallery on my PDA with Windows Mobile 5. When I open an older gallery (2004), everything works fine.

Maybe the same problem

Maybe something wrong with the swfobject_source.js which is used since the latest version of Imagevue.

REALLY? So you can see ImageVue 17? I'm using ImageVue 17 and spent way too much time trying to unravel the MS problem so I just defauted back to Firefox. They sent me a canned answer to make me work to find a solution but I'm not into it.

Makes me uneasy to think that some of the installations do not work correctly. And yours did work on ImageVue? Must be some settings within the browser that I cannot find.

Still, on my box, ImageVue 17 is not displaying through IE7. MS had futile recommendations- canned answers or use the fourms to figure out a fix. I tried the MS recommended IE6 work-around without results. I've posted my frustrations both here and on the MS forum and gotten no other viewers response with the same problem. I have gotten a LOCAL response from a friend, that I had sent an email gallery link to- the link did not work- no details on why. I tried System Restore and couldn't revert to the previous browser. "www.photo.gallery imagevue gallery module", the text that appears within the screen is all that displays. I have removed the Internet Explorer 7 as my default browser (not a solution). I am now using IE7 to post to this forum so why can I not view the ImageVue pages with it anymore? Guess I should have started a poll...

Well this look like you have JavaScript disabled in your browser. The reason we use it is new IE7 [click here to activate this control] scheme for Flash. So you probably should check your IE settings closely especially JavaScript related. But I'm sure its turned on by default actually... Strange...

Apparently there's a bug in the new IE7 that prevents changing the Security Settings and java script permissions. I went through every possible scenario and opened all the available security levels and stil got no ImageVue to display...

I emulated the same scenario in Firefox by disabling scripts through add-on of "ScriptBlocker". The same text display appeared in Firefox as did in IE7...the difference was that I was able to gain control of the display. There was a bug in Firefox though that I had to fix to enable the download and installation of plug-ins. I'm lost as to a fix with IE7...NOTHING worked.

IE7's bug apparently comes from the fact that I did not have version 6 when I upgraded and the security settings are not able to be changed...that's the only thing I can think of because none of the settting changes that were applied stuck. Every time I applied security settings, they were ignored for some reason. THAT'S A BUG....apparently one of many in IE7.

Obviously I don't recommend the new browser.

I'm having the exact same problems you're having and after months of fighting with IE 7 I'm still not able to get the latest version of Imagevue to work with my galleries http://www.robertsonbales.ca/photos/index.php
I cannot view any of the Imagevue web site galleries either however everything works fine with netscape and firefox. An interesting thing is, I can view my imagevue galleries on my computer at my office using IE7.
On my home computer where I cannot view the galleries the only setting I can find in Internet Options for Java is 'Use Java 2 v1.4.1 for applet' which is enabled.
I have Microsoft Virtual Machine installed on my office computer and not on my home computer. I'm not sure this has anything to do with the fact that IE7 will not display my galleries on my home computer.

Exactly. That is the problem. You enable all the settings for scripts and still come up with a blank page. Nothing new for me to report. I gave up using the browser or trying to fix it. Firefox had a security bug too (actually admitted it) but I was able to troubleshoot and fix it through their forum help. Apparently not enough ImageVue users have made enough noise for MS to pay attention. There's got to be similar bugs in the IE7 security settings that were present in Firefox, which prevent ImageVue from displaying- or enabling settings to get it to work BUT getting MS to help you fix the problem seems impossible...One suggestion...

MAKE NOISE TO dumbass MS browser development! Those of you who have a working browser and have put ImageVue up on your website: Be aware that there's a percentage of viewers with IE7 which cannot see your images! Take action against arrogance of MS and stop being so apathetic. The problem is real!

From here, your gallery works in both firefox and IE. I am not sure why it would fail on some IE users.

I had the same problem with IE 7, after hours of trying to figure out whats wrong. I FOUND THE FIX FOR IT ! Download the Flash Player uninstaller here:

Run it and then reinstall Flash from Abobe site. Should now work. I tried this and work great for me !
Hope this will help you out also !
GOOD LUCK !

same thing for me, my site doesn't work with IE 7.

http://www.michelrajkovic.fr/fr.html

It works only if I put the security level to low.
But many people who comes on my site will not change the security level. If it doesn't work, they will quit.


The link http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowled...fm?id=tn_14157 is dead

same probl , i cant have my album works with IE7

although i have tried what you have said ....

Try the suggestion from vyper911?

This problem is not native to Imagevue, and I have found the official link for this issue: http://blog.deconcept.com/2006/12/08/co ... 7-upgrade/
