IE7 or Frontpage problems - I think a bug in IE7 using Frontpage

K

Kerry Van Iseghem

I believe I have found a new bug in IE7

IE7 takes my html code and deletes some source code automatically.

I use Microsoft Frontpage 2003 and develop my html code. When I put this
onto my ftp site all works fine in previous versions of IE. But when you
open the webpage in IE7 the source code is different than when you open the
page in IE6 ?

Why would IE7 delete some source code ?

Below are the two versions = I open the same html file with IE6 and IE7 and
do a "View Source" and you will note that they are different.

Version IE7 =>

Version IE6 =>

You are running Zone Alarm, Norton or MacAffee? These will remove any
and all images that have "Advertising" in the name or path.
Change the name of the folder to avoid "Ad", Advert", "Advertising",
"Banner". There are other words that get "hit" as well, but these are
the most common.
Norton also removes images that have certain sizes as well, because they
could be associated with advertising banners.

I took your advice and changed the folder name. I also changed the page
source code to remove any mention of advertising. I switched it to
"Marketing."

None of this helped. I will try to change it again to something other than
Marketing but the funny thing is that I use CA EZ tools for antivirus and
anti-spam etc. and there is not option to turn off any kind of image
prevention. I have other pages on my website such as a support page that has
many of these same logo's ?

Your advice is appreciated.

IE7 is not the issue, this is what I pulled using it.

What is different between the IE7 machine and the IE6
machine?

Post a link to the published page and we can check if it is AV software
or IE7. I know that my AV/firewall does not remove images, and I have
never seen this action in any browser - but then, if you don't know the
image should be there, you don't miss it when it's gone.

If you preview your local site in browser (assuming a .htm or .html
page, on a disc based web) does the image show in IE7?

I found the link to your page, and in IE7 the full source is in place.
"Marketing" may be another banned word for images.
However, the Marketing Today site will have missing images in Norton
protected PCs, for example:
<img src="ADS/PRECISION/OmniAtm_120_90.jpg" border="0">

Your page is incomplete, since the last lines of code are:

</td>

</html>

It should be (at least)
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Hi,

I am not sure the relevance to your issue, but this is my experience with ZA
6.5 (which I eventually uninstalled) for our site:

We have a few images won't display with ZA installed, and that has nothing
to do with the descriptions of the images.

One of the image is using a link to our payment company with php and our
account ID which will automatically display the kind of credit cards
accepted. But this is gone with ZA.

A few others are our own image links for pop-out windows upon user's
clicking (not auto pop out), and these are also gone.

I don't know their methods for ID ad but this does not happen equally with
other security suits.

In any case, hope this helps and check if other machines with different
suits will act the same.
