Hi,

I was just getting a grey box with the pager on the top in Firefox and just the pager, no grey box, in ie7.

Then I got everything working fine in Firefox by swapping to (node_data_field_pager_item_text_field_image_fid) in template.php as suggested in other posts.

However, the grey box now appears with the pager in ie7 but still no images or text.

I've tried clearing the cache but that doesn't help.

I'm using the latest RC1 versions of file field and image field downloaded today.

You can see the DDB on the front page of test site at http://www.mp3soundscape.com - be aware that I'm using jpg's of coloured squares (including grey) for testing - which might be a bit confusing.

Can you help?

Thanks.

I looked at your site with different browsers and always see the "IE version" of your variables.
You must have changed something.

Do you still see it fine in Firefox?

I uploaded some new images but I think that's all - It still looks OK on my computer in Firefox.

I've attached ff and ie screenshots and also source code from ff and ie - as only ff shows img src in code.

Thanks for your help

I'm really sorry - It's just dawned on me that it is a permissions issue. I've set the right permissions and it works fine.

It is a brilliant module and I'm thrilled with it. Going to buy one of your templates now!

Thanks for your help anyway.

Mike,

Great you got it working now!

Which permissions are you talking about?

Can you describe it here so also other user seeing this issue know what to look for.

Thanks

Ok, I have a similar problem here and I cannot see how it could be a permissions issue (but perhaps it is and I made a very stupid mistake).

I got ddb working (after quite while despite the very good tutorial) and tested it with FF and all my roles. It works like a charme, absolutly great! Currently I use upright40.

BUT testing it with IE showed the following:

-I get the pager item
-I don't get the slide. Instead I only have the rest of the block white.
-Therefore I also lack the slide text.
-When I click on the pager I only get the behaviour that I go to the top of the page (no problem with FF).

All modules are up to date, I use acquia_marina, D6.10. I cleared cache too and I am running on a XAMP local installation.

Yes of course.

It was user permissions.

At user management>permissions. I hadn't enabled permisssion of anonymous and authenticated users to view field_pager_item_text and field_slide_text in the content_permissions module section.

Can't now remember whether I had also forgotten to enable permisssion to view dynamic display blocks for anonymous and authenticated users. Anyway, that permission should be enabled.

The problem was caused because I was logged in as the main admin on Firefox so could see the block but just an anonymous user on ie so couldn't see it.

Hope that helps.

@webnation

Thank you for your explanation. I hope it helps other users.

@dddave

If it works in FF but not in IE it's not a permissions issue. (if you are logged in as the same user.)

Another (more annoying issue with IE is that it only supports 31 css files)
If you use a lot of modules on your installation you can easily go over this limit.

In production sites where you have CCS aggregation enabled this is not a problem, but in a development site where this is mostly not enabled you could have this issue.

I am just guessing.

Can you send a link to the Internet site, so I can help you better.
If not maybe a screenshot will help more

It is on a local install as I am trying this module out. I have already tried CSS optimize option but to no avail.

Attached images so you can see the result.

@dddave.

To make things sure:
You logged in under the same user in FF and IE?
You are talking about IE7?
Do you see the slide-items in the pagesource of IE7?

or can you compare the pagesource in FF and IE
or send the pagesource of FF and IE7

Yes it is IE7. I checked as the same user/roles with both browsers.

I am attaching the (stripped) source. Hope this helps.

edit: I will get back on this tomorrow. Thanks for your good work.

Thanks for the answers

The only differences I see is special characters for fur, fruher and uber, otherwise no difference in this part.

I don't think this will cause the issue.
It needs to be in the other parts of the pages.

Can you send the complete page sources?
You can send them on my contact form if you don't want to make them public.

You got mail. ;)

I am outta here. Thx!

Ok, retried o a different system and got it to work. I guess my local installation is somewhat messed up or a module on this install conflicts with ddb. Sorry for the inconvenience.
It works fine and I will try some css modifications today. Your tutorials are 1A!
