Gifs don't work in firefox > 4.0

Subscribing

Same problem.

I'm having this issue too,
It seems like firefox doesn't start animations on hidden gif images
I don't think it has nothing to do with jquery
So far I couldn't find how to solve this

At last! a solution was found (See here)
I'll commit this soon

Good news :)

Any progress on this? It's affecting us too.

For anyone that wants a patch, here's one that uses the answer from #5.

It works by not including the image in the string from the server, but splicing it in using DOM methods before adding it to the page.

I've since discovered that this breaks the preview on the admin page and breaks the gif in IE!

I'm in the process of working on something that works in IE too.

hello could you tell me how to apply this patch on linux? I tried like this, but it is failed.

saravanan@linux # patch < hide_submit-firefoxfix-1255086-8.patch
patching file hide_submit.js
Hunk #1 succeeded at 98 (offset 72 lines).
patching file hide_submit.module
Hunk #1 FAILED at 330.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file hide_submit.module.rej
bitnami@linux:/opt/bitnami/apps/drupal/htdocs/sites/all/modules/hide_submit$

i modified by files manually from the diff file. but the animation is not working both in IE & Firefox.

Your help is very much appreciated.

Saravana

Hi,
I applied your patch. but it it not working in firefox.
Could you help how to apply this patch on linux. I did patch as below.

saravanan@linux # patch < hide_submit-firefoxfix-1255086-8.patch
patching file hide_submit.js
Hunk #1 succeeded at 98 (offset 72 lines).
patching file hide_submit.module

Same problem here.

Patch from #8 dont work in IE or Firefox. In Chrome it works.

Has anyone an idea?

I took this a bit further by following coder's advice and fixing other little things as I noticed them. Attached is my patch and a "no whitespace" version made with "git diff -w". Even with these changes it still needs some more work to become functional.

There's a pretty critical problem with the administration screen right now that it doesn't save. Instead you get "An illegal choice has been detected. Please contact the site administrator."

The current module feels overly complex to me. I see no reason why it should have a feature to allow uploading the image or the "random" replacement image built into the module itself. I wonder if there should be a new 7.x branch that is much lighter weight and allows everything to be overridden by theme functions as appropriate. That would make it much easier to maintain the module (i.e. and upgrade it to new versions of core).

blargh. Please ignore comment #14 which was meant for #1072332: D7 port of Hide-submit-button.

Thanks for submitting this issue.

The 6.x branch of this module is not supported. This issue was filed against the 6.x version so I'm closing it because it doesn't seem relevant to the 7.x version.

If the issue is relevant for the 7.x version: I apologize for closing it. Can you please reopen it and adjust the version number?
