Links not showing in browser

MonaE · #1 (**permalink**) Dec 5th, 2006, 23:09

Hello,

I am having problems with links not showing in a web browser. I have a table with .pdf files linked in the column at http://www.elkgrovecity.org/economic.../marketing.htm

But they do not who up in the web browser. I see them in my editor (FrontPage) and another computer in Internet Explorer. I've tried linking, copy and pasting code, etc. Does anyone know why they won't show up?

Thanks,
MonaE

They show up in Safari...

Looks like it has to do with the file because I can make and see new links I make. Why would certain .pdf files work and not others? I tried re-saving .pdf and uploading. ??????

It works for me...so I have no ideal...??

Found it! Apparently when you name a .pdf file starting with the letter "a" it does not show up in some browsers. Once I renamed the file, all worked. Go figure.

Are you serious? That has to be the oddest bug I've heard of.

Well, I don't know if the bug is true, but it's the oddest claim I've heard!

Aaron1988 · #12 (**permalink**) Dec 8th, 2006, 12:02

Works for me, but let it be know I hate pdf files when I browse the internet, I hate it when I click on a pdf, cause it takes forever to open them, but I understand what they are being used for, and just wish thy would use a different program...lol

ok kool so what browser is he using cause if it works for you jacb and me it must work for him so if he sends us the code maybe we can assist it more see why he is getting that error

JacobHaug · #15 (**permalink**) Dec 8th, 2006, 16:25

It was my understanding that this problem has already been fixed...has it not?

Aaron1988 · #16 (**permalink**) Dec 8th, 2006, 22:30

Yes it has been fixed.

but was saying we if he sends us the code then we could look at it cause you must be able to open a filename of "A" with a .pd file to download cause you just tried mine and mine was a "A"

Thanx
Aaron

hmmm....true, whatever...lol

Aaron1988 · #19 (**permalink**) Dec 8th, 2006, 23:26

lol reason why say that is cause there can't be a bug that when you upload a .pdf file with a filename with "a" it doesnt work lmao surely
