Few bugs after update - Posted By dog199200 (dog199200) on 16th Dec 09 at 7:13pm
URL: http://www.forum.divineshadowsonline.com

- Bug 1 -
Browser: IE
Problem: For some reason it doesn't show up in IE anymore at all when it used to.

- Bug 2 -
Browser: Firefox, and Google Chrome
Problem: After the updates my logo image vanished. The image is still in my database and is still said to be attacked to the skin, but it doesn't show at all. And if i type in the image url it loads fine.

Yeah the same with me in Bug 2, my forums show up just fine in IE8.

The wallpaper's do not load up at times, and sometimes it takes 2 minutes to show.

It does it with ALL skins.

1. Your IE problem is a bug with a code in your header or footer somewhere:

http://www.forum.divineshadowsonline.com/noheaders/1

None stood out to me as having problems so I would recommend trying to narrow it down in bulk. ie. Remove all codes from the global footer (save in notepad) and see if that fixes it. If not, remove all codes from the global header. Once you've identified where the problem lies, add blocks of code back at a time until it breaks again. Once you can narrow down the code which is causing it I'm happy to try and take a look at why. If I had to guess, I would say it was something welcome table related since the source code there is currently spaced out (more info on that coming soon)

2. Fixed.

@ Darkmage, I believe your image loading problems are most likely something to do with your ISP or image hosting provider. They all load perfectly fine for me.

The rest are on PhotoBucket (not on Forsaken Desire) so both PhotoBucket and ImageShack shouldn't of had the same problem, as the other images loaded just fine. just not the banners on ANY site.

Maybe you checked the forums after you fixed the problem?

Are you talking about banners or wallpapers? There was a problem with banners which Dwight mentioned, I fixed that. Your original post mentioned wallpapers, which there was nothing broken about {Confused}

OK I'll check that out in a second then and edit this post when i get it figured out.

Edit: Ok I found the problem, its the custom navigation menu I had made, maybe you can help me figure out why its breaking the table structure of the forum, cause i've looked at both the css and the main code and i don't know why its messing up.

The problems are all the bits which have:

<span class="separator"/>

When they should be:

<span class="separator"></span>

IE, surprisingly enough, is sticking to the standards and saying that a span element cannot be self-closing.

Yeah, I put. "The Same with bug 2" then I went on saying everything looks fine in IE8 for me. So I did mention about the banners, but it wasn't obvious. {Tongue Out}
