Certain elements are not viewable in browser

[Fred B]

Using FR2002, WinXP
Even fter I update a page directly on the website using FP,
since I cannot publish, see previous post, certain items
are not viewable by the browser. Two examples, a PayPal
form (View Cart button) and the button are not there when i
view source in IE6 and Nescape 7. Also, a jpg picture
appears in Frontpage when I view it there but not in view
source with the two browsers.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Browsers can only see what you've published. If you cannot
publish, then the browser has nothing to look at. You need
to figure out why you cannot publish. What error messages
are you getting? What software are you using to create
your shopping cart system? Can the shopping cart software
designers help you out here?

Since you're working live on the server, make sure you clear your browsers temporary internet and
history files and then view the page in question.

Also, why can't you "Publish"??

Thank you for responding, I removed the temp files and
still the same result. As to not being able to publish see
my previous post just a few minutes before the original of
this post.

Thank you.

Fred,

I have no problem seeing the PayPal code when doing a view source in IE6 or NS6.21:

Arial, Helvetica">

for the jpg picture, rename it and remove the double space in the file name and replace it with an
underscore_
spaces break links and the path to the image shows as
http://www.movieworks.us/index_files/takin lives.jpg
Each %20 represents a space in the file name.

The paypal form appears as it is supposed to here when the "View Cart" button is clicked, even
though I can't add anything to it.

Fred,

FYI: PayPal no longer requires your customers to first have or create a PayPal account in order pay
you via PayPal.

Thank you. But my statement relates to the fact that you
must be a PayPal customer to use a Visa or other card.

So then this must have to do with cleaning out cache,
deleting .web files, etc? I cannot believe that I must go
thru this everytime to just look at my revised web pages.
Can this possibly be the case?

Okay,

Please go to this page:
http://www.movieworks.us/DVDsForSaleAnimatedFrame.htm
Look at this code,


This the code I see in View Source:
<td width="33%" bgcolor="#ffffff">
<p align="center"><a target="_blank"
href="LionKingOneAndOneHalf.htm">

</a><br>
<font size="2">Lion King 1 1/2 - $8</font></td>

NOTE the missing HTML between the line ending ...Half.htm">
and the next line beginning "</a><br>". This is supposed
to be what it is there:
<img border="0"
src="images/eBayPhotos/LionKingOneAndOneHalf.jpg"
width="200" height="150">

To clarify the complete line should be:
<td width="33%" bgcolor="#ffffff">
<p align="center"><a target="_blank"
href="LionKingOneAndOneHalf.htm">

<img border="0"
src="images/eBayPhotos/LionKingOneAndOneHalf.jpg"
width="200" height="150"></a><br>
<font size="2">Lion King 1 1/2 - $8</font></td>

How is that possible and what do you see, the whole thing
or the line with the missing code?

Thank you in advance.

I see what you mean about jpg names with spaces and I will
fix them thru out the site. However, to continue, here is
an example where there are no spaces and I get the same result:

Your customers do not have to be a PayPal member to pay you, see:

the paypal button - is this image hosted on your server, or on paypal.com?

paypal may have changed the location of the image/or the file name to prevent you
linking directly to the image on their site, the idea being is to download that
image and upload it to your server.

Can we have the URL of your site?

Have you uploaded the images to the correct location(s) on the server?

 

[Andrew Murray]

I can see the 'view cart' image...using IE 6.

Maybe your firewall is blocking it? the 'block ads' feature on Norton Personal
Firewall especially, seems to based it's blocking on the size of an
image.....(banner ads), but this doesn't seem to apply in this case.....just a
thought.

I think the reason the image doesn't show up, is something to do with the paypal
code (all those hidden fields etc). It doesn't appear to be generated by a
normal <img src> tag.

 

[Andrew Murray]

No problem viewing that image here.....IE6 sounds like it is a caching problem
on your machine.....

 

[Fred B]

Thank you very much for your patience and the information. Obviously,
I was not aware that PayPal had changed its policy. You really are a
MVP!

[Fred B]

After one or two files appear to be published, there is the
msg that web is being updated. and then this error occurs.

The server sent a response which FrontPage could not parse.

I uninstalled and reinstalled FrontPage Extensions at my
website host.

Thank you in advance.
