Phoca Gallery 2.2.0Beta probs with IE 7

[Slammer]

Beautiful work here. It displays perfectly in Firefox but probs in IE7.

It pulls the gallery main page fine but clicking on any category gives me a

Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site... Operation aborted

Any ideas?

Take a look here:Gallery

BTW, happens with ANY Joomla template.

Thanks,

I just got the error with your page as well. Waiting for my VM to load back up....

I just tested my gallery install and is working without a problem in IE (http://www.nojobu4u.com). Right now the only thing that I see that is different is that my URLS are browser friendly. In the Global Configuration for Joomla, I have "Search Engine Friendly URLs" "Use Apache Mod_rewrite" and "Add suffix to URLs" all in the YES position.

I system-matically disabled each option on my site, and I was still able to view my site in IE.

The only different that I see is that you have : in your links. I am not sure if that makes a difference, but like stated, my gallery install works in IE with the long URLs only thing I can see that is different between your links and my is that there is a ":" and that might be throwing off IE for some strange reason.

Also noticed that there are 3 errors that are reported in your page. With out looking at the source of the page and the lines with the errors, it could possibly be one of those errors that is not letting you view the specific galleries.

Yeah, I have already tried changing nearly every possible setting to narrow it down. NOTHING works. It simply will not display in IE7. This is really my last issue to launching this site.

Hi,

have you read the FAQ in the documentation (it's listed in the 'read first' topic) https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... on_aborted

Thanks,

Well, that gave us some progress but we are not fixed.

Now, when you go in to my #1 category (and only the #1 category for some strange reason), this is "Posters" on the site in question, the Joomla template formatting stops when the Phoca Gallery Component begins. Here is an image:



Notice that the background image has disappeared, the page is not listing all thumbs, and thumb #11 and #12 are stacked on top of each other! The remaining page formatting is also screwed up. The IE7 browser eventually locks up when viewing Phoca Gallery. Link to actual page:
http://rumblejetts.com/home/index.php?o ... &Itemid=53

Additionally, on ALL Phoca Gallery pages the Rating and Comment boxes at the bottom of the page are not formatted correctly. Instead of being a single tabbed box, we have two seperate tables. Here is an image:


Of course, it all still works fine in Firefox. However, the mindless masses use IE. It MUST work in IE.

Any input is appreciated. Site launch is delayed by this and this alone.

I am having the same issue with the error Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site. I read the FAQ and tried the solution but I still get the error. Should I uninstall this version of Phoca and put the older version on?

[Slammer]

FYI,

There was something wrong with the way that either image #11 or #12 were processed that caused the problem in IE7. I unpublished those two images and it nixed the problem. The gallery now displays in IE7.

NOTE* the comment and rating boxes are still separate tables instead of one tabbed box, but it is not enough to delay site launch.

Thanks for the help in this forum. I will repay with some new templates as soon as I get this last bit of work out of my hair.

Well CRAP!

Thanks. I may have to punt this Gallery if there is not a fix soon.

"the comment and rating boxes are still separate tables instead of one tabbed box, but it is not enough to delay site launch"

mostly this is caused by template, try to test it with some standard template like rhuk_milkyway...

"I am having the same issue with the error Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site. I read the FAQ and tried the solution but I still get the error. Should I uninstall this version of Phoca and put the older version on?"

This can be problem of more than one javascript displayed on the site, so if you know the code of javascript try to add some defer tag to the javascript code

FROM:
<script type='text/javascript' src='some js' ></script>
TO:
<script type='text/javascript' src='some js' defer='defer'></script>
