I am working on a site that has to use IE6 !!! BUT also requires intranet users to access apps that need Firefox. Is there a slick way of doing this when launching the app? (link pop up - seems old fashioned). Not sure how much access I have to the root directory, ie for HTaccess
thoughts much appreciated.
You can use a <div> element inside conditional comments and display it for intranet users only based on an IP check.

So I just linked my custom domain with firebase and it shows connected:
image of connected status
which is great. But now when I search website without /index.html, it redirects me to this page. I want to see this page which is accessible only when I append website domain with /index.html. I am new to firebase. How can I make my domain access index.html page without specifically mentioning /index.html?
EDIT: I just noticed that it's working fine on the mobile devices and in the incognito tab on PC. It must be something with my chrome browser I am logged in with. which is weird :/ should I change the title? Cause I think fault could be related to browser. but help me if you can.
So the real issue wasn't the configuration but the browser cache. if you are facing similar issues then try clearing the browser cache or try browsing the website on a different device. Spent literally 1-2 hrs on such a silly problem. Either way, thank you.
I am running a site. Some of its pages are not working in Firefox, but work perfect in Chrome. In Firefox it shows me a gray shield next to the URL and when I click on that shield and manually click on disable protection on this page then my page works fine. So now the problem is that there are many users on my site, and some of them don't know how to do it so I want to handle it on my site so its users don't need to do that.
How can I do it? I Googled and found a setting of Firefox in about:config named security.mixed_content.block_active_content. If we set it to false then it works. So is there a way to do it programmatically or other way so that users just view that page without seeing that shield?
As I understand it, content that is blocked by default by Firefox now is http content that is accessed from an https page. Common types of content that fall foul of this are external stylesheets and images.
As far as I am aware the way to prevent the problem on your site is to make sure that if a page is served by https, any and all other files that it references are also served by https.
Hi Friends,
The reason you see this error in Mozilla Firefox is because your
website is a Mixed Box that is, your website has many internal links
which are not SSL protected.
In order to avoid this error from showing up in Mozilla Firefox you
will have to make sure all the internal links on your website are SSL
protected.
So, Use https:// in your page not http://
I hope I was clear enough in answering your query.
firefox has blocked content that isn't secure means there are some contents on your website are not secure.
I had same issue as my fonts were downloading with http://google.apis.something instead of https
Then I change to //google.apis.something and problem get solved.
To know what is not secure in you website use this link
I have a number of virtual applications under one site, all of which have the same issue. Whenever you are at the root of the application (~/) postbacks do not fire, the page just refreshes.
Here are some samples (all their own virtual applications):
Clicking on "Login" link does not redirect to Login.aspx page

Entering username / password, and then clicking "login" / "go" does not log a user in

For some reason, if you add "Default.aspx" to the end of any of the pages above the postback works as expected (eg. http://designbyssi.com/designbyssi.com/projects/air-savings/02/Default.aspx). I've been Googling this for a while now and I found a few articles, though none of them have helped.
Here are the articles I've managed to find:

I'm not using any type of URL rewriting, they are all web form applications, and I'm on a Godaddy shared hosting account.
Any ideas on what might be happening, or what I need to do to fix it?
I had the same issue recently where my dev environment was setup in integrated mode while production was in classic mode. Postbacks in dev were not working when going to the root of the site but would work when going to Default.aspx.
I simply changed my dev environment to use classic mode for now. Also, this problem does not necessarily have anything to do with URL rewriting.
Since you are on shared hosting, you probably can't do that but these links may help.

Has anyone every encountered this problem:
Apple's Safari v5 is disrupting the image urls on one of my magento v1.6.1 sites within the same domain. The site in question is http://store.guns-aws.com
When analyzing the lack of images, I have noticed that image urls are being disrupted from www.guns-aws.com to www.guns -aws.com [notice the space]
Ironically Safari 4 does not have this issue and the same site works perfectly fine with IE, FF, Opera and Chrome.
Thinking its a javascript error, I have also disabled java and still the problem persist.
All your help is appreciated.
p.s. Mangento wise, I have cleared the cache, reindexed the whole site to no avail.
With best regards

Try going to System > Config > Web > Unsecure and check the Base URL and Base Media URL and make sure there are no spaces.
To determine if its a javascript or server error, right click on the page and hit View Source. If the URLs there have the space, its the server's fault. If they don't have the space, and you only see it in the Inspector its Javascript. However, I suspect its the server not Javascript.
I found out the error within the database -> core_config_data [base_media_url] of the site in mention. [If you ask me how the error developed, I really don't know...]
One will not notice that the url is disrupted via magento's settings panel as the url would display as it should so.
Hence for anyone with this trouble, just go to the database via phpmyadmin, select the core_config_data table and check for the base_media_url of the effected site and amend accordingly.

IE8 has a feature called InPrivate Filtering, which will block scripts it finds on webpages from more than 'n' different sites.
I'm listening to the most recent 'Security Now' podcast which is raving about this feature as being great.
At the very same time I'm screaming NOOO! What the *#&$ -- because my site (as does many many others) includes the following (jQuery + SWFObject). i.e. I'm using Google's CDN to host my jQuery.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.1/swfobject.js"></script>
So whats the deal - should I stop usin jQuery and swfobject from a CDN ?
Whats everybody else doing?
**Edit: ** I couldn't find out if they keep a list of 'trusted sites' or not, but according to this from Microsoft the InPrivate filtering is per session. So at least someone has to actively enable it every session.
InPrivate Filtering is off by default and must be enabled on a
per-session basis. To use this
feature, select InPrivate Filtering
from the Safety menu. To access and
manage different filtering options for
Internet Explorer 8, select InPrivate
Filtering Settings from the Safety
menu. To end your InPrivate Browsing
session, simply close the browser
window.
If your site has content that people would not want cached (bank site, porn, or something else "sensitive"), then I would not use an externally hosted file. Or if your site is just totally broken if the file does not load I would consider it. But if your site is anything else, I wouldn't worry about it. I don't think this is a feature most people will use if they want to hide their tracks. And if they really want to, let them deal with the consequences.
This may seem silly but since IE8 is out, why don't you test your site with InPrivate turned on and see how it behaves? Also if you can report back your findings here that would be great :)
It looks like there's a significant chance this will be disabled with InPrivate enabled, but it ultimately depends on each user's browsing habits.
If a user visits 10 sites in regular mode that all link to files from the same third-party domain, links to files on that domain will be blocked when InPrivate is enabled.
So while you won't be able to take advantage of the CDN, you should host files like this yourself if you need them to work reliably.
InPrivate Blocking keeps a record of
third-party items like the one above
as you browse. When you choose to
browse with InPrivate, IE
automatically blocks sites that have
“seen” you across more than ten sites.
You can also manually choose items to
block or allow, or obtain information
about the third-party content directly
from the site by clicking the “More
information from this website” link.
Note that Internet Explorer will only
record data for InPrivate Blocking
when you are in “regular” browsing
mode, as no browsing history is
retained while browsing InPrivate. An
easy way to think of it is that your
normal browsing determines which items
to block when you browse InPrivate.
Disclaimer: I haven't actually tested any of this as I don't have IE8, but the document you linked to is pretty clear about this.
You should host the JS files on your own site.
Here's another reason to host the JS file on your site.
I've always wondered, would it be possible to have a safe fallback in the event the CDN is down/unavailable?
Something like:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
if (typeof jQuery == 'undefined') {
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='local/jquery.min.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
}
</script>
I think there would be a low percent of people using IE8 (I think), then turning on the option "InPrivate Browsing". Google's CDN somehow says "it has a server near where the user accessing the website is, so that the performance is increased" (not directly quoted). IE has caused me numerous problems in the past, and I dropped support for it.
does it work from the domain name of the site e.g. ajax.googleapis.com or does it resolve the name? if it just logs the domain, couldn't you just wrap it in a CNAME e.g. js.yourdomain.com -> ajax.googleapis.com?
