Why this cant be displayed in firefox?

jahphill · #1 Dec 15th, 2007, 01:33

Hey hey!

I have just been making a new design for my mini site.
When I was testing it i found that the important content could not be displayed in firefox :o

Code: Select all

http://blizma.co.uk/new/

Have I dont something wrong in the source?
I have no idea =S. Most of its script is the same as the current website.

Thank you in advanced!

Well, your source code is the following, correct?

There's not much content there...

RohanShenoy · #3 Dec 15th, 2007, 07:15

I think the encrypted HTML is the problem. BTW I am not sure if phone browsers support JS. Mine Nokia 3110c in India does not seep to support JS.

jahphill · #4 Dec 15th, 2007, 12:18

Well... what can i do? =S
I took the encrypted content out and it still doesnt work =[
Any suggestions?

Or maybe, does it work for you guys, and just not me? :S

Stuart · #5 Dec 15th, 2007, 16:46

Can you post a screen shot? From your source, as I said above, I don't see a lot of content. If you post a screen shot we'll be able to see what you mean.

jahphill · #6 Dec 15th, 2007, 18:40

Ok..

here are two screenshots (one of IE one of FireFox ---->

MikeHopley · #7 Dec 15th, 2007, 19:07

*sigh*

Validate your code before you blame the browser. You have 144 XHTML errors.

Stuart · #8 Dec 15th, 2007, 22:11

*sigh* again!

Yes, the validation is important!

Now, the reason you're not seeing the radio buttons is your javascript. You did not correctly define variables. I fixed your code:

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript">

var search='<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="mp3s" value="mp3s" CHECKED> <b>MP3 Music<\/b> <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="mp3s2" value="mp3s2"> Mp3 Attempt 2 <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="fmovie" value="fmovie"> Stream Movies <input type="radio" name="searchtype" id="tvmovie" value="tvmovie"> Stream Tv Eps. <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="pdf" value="pdf"> PDF Documents <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="ebook" value="ebook"> eBooks</div>';

var phaze='<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="intext" value="intext" CHECKED> <b>Attempt One<\/b> <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="rslinks" value="rslinks"> Attempt Two <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="phaze" value="phaze"> Programs <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="torrents" value="torrents"> Torrents';

var news='<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="googlenews" value="googlenews" CHECKED> Google News\r\n<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="bbc" value="bbc"> BBC <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="ap" value="ap"> AP <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="reuters" value="reuters"> Reuters <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="wired" value="wired"> Wired';

var video='<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="allvids" value="allvids" CHECKED><b> All <\/b> <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="googlevideo" value="googlevideo"> Google Video\r\n<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="youtube" value="youtube"> Youtube\r\n<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="metacafe" value="metacafe"> MetaCafe\r\n<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="archieve" value="archive"> Archive.org';

var developers='<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="codebase" value="codebase" CHECKED> Codebase <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="oreilly" value="oreilly"> Oreilly <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="koders" value="koders"> Coders <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="codefetch" value="codefetch"> Codefetch <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="phpdocs" value="phpdocs"> PHP Docs<\/a>';

var education='<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="wikipedia" value="wikipedia" CHECKED> Wikipedia\r\n<input type="radio" name="searchType" id"askcom" value="askcom"> Ask.com \r\n<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="citeseer" value="citeseer"> Citeseer<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="googlescholar" value="googlescholar"> Google Scholar\r\n<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="googleansweres" value="googleanswers"> Google Answers<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="answeres" value="answers"> Answers.com\r\n<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="yahooansweres" value="yahooanswers"> Yahoo Answers';

var lectures='<input type="radio" name="searchType" id="alevel" value="alevel" CHECKED><b> A/AS/O Level Lectures <\/b> <input type="radio" name="searchType" id="univ" value="univ"> University Lectures \r\n';

function foo(x){
heh.innerHTML=x;
document.tehmonkey.search.focus();
}
</script>

That should fix the display error. However, you still need to validate!

jahphill · #9 Dec 16th, 2007, 01:45

Hey.
Thanks for replies.
I am aware that there are a few tiny errors. I don't believe this can affect this.. looking through the error report, there are no mager errors..

swagner thanks for that. However it hasn't solved it.

As I often say: invalid code causes unpredictable results.

Your code errors may or may not be the cause of your problem. But eliminating them is the logical first step in debugging your code. When you go bug-hunting, it pays to be systematic!

Stuart · #11 Dec 16th, 2007, 14:29

Mike is, as usual, correct. Your javascript, and your whole site for that matter, is being screwed up by invalid code. Please validate your code, then we can work on the javascript further. If you need help with correcting validation errors I'm happy to help.

MikeHopley · #12 Dec 16th, 2007, 16:38

Here's another problem with your code:

innerHTML is not a W3C standard. It's very buggy in Gecko browsers (e.g. Firefox).

Don't use it. Use the DOM instead. Unfortunately the DOM is slower, and takes more code to write, but it's still the better choice.

This article has a lot of detail about innerHTML.
