I just found out that Safari does not have scroll bars on their pages to scroll down to all my pages..

Any thoughts on what could be wrong, for me to check?

thanks

You may have some strange code on the page that Safari doesn't like? Can you post a link to a page with the problem?

Here is my website. By looking at the code someone says it's a mess. I don't know what I did.

I just had someone say Firefox can't read it either.. I have no problems on my two windows machines.

thanks for the help..

Your site looks fine to me with FireFox. I ran it through Safari Test also, and it looks good there too, except the contact info in green text at the top wraps to a second line and overlaps. I don't know what to tell you about the scroll bar, the image in the test cut the bottom off the page, so I assume that confirms that there is a code issue preventing scrolling. Bruceee should be back soon.

I have found that the key to pleasing Safari is to give lots of extra space in the text boxes so that if Safari subs a larger font it will fit without wrapping to another line.

the scroll problem is on the other pages, click on "more galleries"

Anyone know what's going on?

Also what about fonts? Should I use just generic ones, so all browsers can read them properly?

Looking at my website stats, I find that about 12% use Safari and they can't see all my pages..

So I am possibly losing customers because of this problem.
I have to resolve this issue, if not I will have to switch programs..

I don't have any problem with Safari other than font switching so I think it's an isolated issue. I see you have some javascript on the page, that can cause a glitch, but I don't know enough to say. Hopefully someone else will answer soon.

Just to be really sure we are looking at a page with a "problem", this is the one I am looking at:

I don't have Safari, which I think is Apple Mac(?), so the vertical scroll bar is present for me in IE7. I gather that is missing for at least one Safari user (you?), although Phil can see it, also using Safari. Do you have other Safari users reporting no scroll bar?

Some other issues, which may not be related to the missing scroll bar:

1. To answer your font question: you should be using "Web Safe" fonts, marked with the green "WS" in the text editor. They should work with both Apple and Windows computers. I see you are using Arial, which is web safe, but haven't looked at your whole site.

2. You have a line, <meta name="Rogers Photography" content="Wedding Photography"> in the header. The W3C Validator complains about the space in the "Rogers Photography". So I'd suggest at least remove the space. I wonder about the need for that line at all. If you don't have any evidence that it has a useful purpose, I suggest delete it altogether. If it does do something useful, then I'd like to know

3. The code at the bottom of the page using vmhtm25.js (a Web Engine thingy), doesn't seem to be doing anything useful. If is some sort of timed slideshow, I don't see it working in IE7.

If you have access to a Safari browser, I suggest as a test, fix problem two, and at least temporarily remove the code in problem three. (Phil's suspicions are well founded.) Does that bring the vertical scroll bar back?

thanks for the help.

HOw do you edit the code?

Now I can't upload, it keeps stoping on my Index page half way thru.

That loop command in there may have been from a counter I had a long time ago. I deleted it so why does some of the code remain..

My concern now is that I cannot upload my website..

Have you ever used Web Engine on the page? If so, try removing the counter with Web Engine. If you haven't used Web Engine, then maybe you have a code object still there?

Any error messages when your upload stops?

Brucee,

It hangs up on my Index page when uploading .ims about half way thru the page at the same spot.

I don't know why all of a sudden it won't work. I was having problems before sometimes.

That code that is near the bottom of the page, in code mode that you mention.,here,The code at the bottom of the page using vmhtm25.js (a Web Engine thingy), doesn't seem to be doing anything useful. If is some sort of timed slideshow, I don't see it working in IE7.

I can not get rid of it and it maybe the cause of my problems. How do you edit in code mode?
Not that I know what the heck I am doing.
I had a web counter on the index page a long time ago and deleted it, but maybe this code is left over from it.????

What is in WEb engine that will find the problem? I need to spend more time learning about software, sitespinner.. you know, if all else fails, read the instructions..



what if I deleted that index page and started fresh with a new one, and then add my other 11 pages to it? I am not sure hot to do that.

Can you add a flash page to this. I would like to get one where I can display my album pictures rather than having people scroll down like I have now, which there seems to be problems, that I don't have a clue to know how to fix.

thanks.

How can I delete the code of that java script in my html window?

Also, I can't download the beta Web engine..
Is there something wrong on your end?

I really need to find out why I can't upload my pages.. I am just trying to upload my Index.ims page and it stops about 1/2 way thru..

How about something that debugs the program?

Are you sure you aren't trying to upload your unpublished .ims files? Your index page should be index.html, not .ims.

Also, should you be at an impass, you could try a freeware ftp client and upload that way.

According to your code, the page you gave a link to was created in Web Engine. If you open it up in Web Engine, you should be able to delete the item that produced the code. Otherwise, you'll need to open the published .html page in an editor like Notepad and manually remove the unwanted code, but every time you re-publish your project you'll have to do it again.

the page that I am having trouble uploading is looking at the FTP box. it reads Index with the html extension.

When it starts uploading the files, it loads the index.html file, then the next file is index.ims and it goes about 1/2 thru then stops..

I don't know what I did since I downloaded the new version of sitespinner v2.7 I have been having trouble.

Here is my error message.

/public_html/index.ims
/public_html/vmhtm25.js

-----------------End----------------
There were 2 errors recorded. (See summary above)

How are you supposed to debug the page to find out whats wrong?
How do I get rid of the java script in my code when there is nothing on my page that has any java applications???

I have nothing on my index page that this code goes to and I think it is giving me problems and I don't know how to get rid of it. Here it is.
<script language="JavaScript" src="file://C:/Program Files/Virtual Mechanics/SiteSpinner V2.7/bin/vmhtm25.js" type="text/javascript">
</script>

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

function initAll(){

pageTime = -1;
pgLink = " ";
fps = 30;

Version = 221;
MoLNo = 0;
pageObj = 0;


initAttr(1,2,1027026,0,0,0,45,0,'Sshd3','');



}

// This function loops waiting 1 tic per frame
tmID =-1;
function frameloop() {
doObjectList();
tmID = window.setTimeout("frameloop();", waitTime, "JavaScript");
}

function startVM() {
if(tmID !=-1){ window.clearTimeout(tmID); tmID=-1;}
Setup();
frameloop();
}

I have been able to upload my website maybe 1 out of 15 tries..

The strange code turns out to be something that both Web Engine and SiteSpinner add if you specify "Dynamic HTML" in your project options. The fix for this to set your Options > Project Options > More button > HTML Publish format back to "Automatic". This step will remove that extra code, and also remove the upload error on vmhtm25.js, which possibly has an invalid file path also in the project options. For SiteSpinner you don't need this file.

It may be that your host is rejecting your .ims project file. You don't need that file on your site either -- it is only there as a backup. Just make sure you back it up some other way -- it is an important file. To disable that upload, disable the Publisher > Profile > Auto Backup Project file.

So forget the clever idea of creating a new index page -- that won't change anything

To avoid confusion, I suggest don't name your project index.ims. Rather name it RogersPhotography.ims -- anything other than "index"

Bruceee

I made those changes and it zipped thru the upload with no problems.. Kudos!

However what do I do about the Safari problem?
I ordered a Mac pro laptop which I should get any day which uses Safari so I will be able to check my website, but I am still sure there is a problem of scrolling down on my "more galleries" pages.

Is it better to desing a website that just sees a whole page at a time rather than scrolling?

I was thinking of getting some sort of Album flash program to display my album images.
Can that be added into a html page and if so do you know of a good program to use for this?

thanx
