I was asked this question recently in an interview:
Company logo appears partially on
the new build of browser
Eliminated Server down problem, not network issue
Company Logo which is a JPG : maybe the image rendering broken
What else could be wrong?
I could not think of anything else. Please help. Can someone elaborate?
Thanks.
It could be that the browser software is not correctly dealing with objects that are split into multiple packets - acquiring the first packet(s) of a progressively loaded image and not the remaining ones could result in a partially displayed image.
The new build of the browser most probably changed their css rendering engine, adhered to new standards, etc.
What looks right in the old browser might not look right in the new browser simply because the rendering is changed. This is especially true with IE6 to IE7 and IE7 to IE8.

So I have successfully built this business website, integrated payment gateways and I have things working just as I need them to but there's a little albeit annoying problem, when scrolling down the webpage on a mobile device, the page suddenly scrolls back up. I thought this was a problem without my chrome browser so I used other browsers still the issue persists. I currently don't know how to fix this irksome issue. Here's a link to the webpage. Sorry to bother you with my problem.
I already fixed it, it was a problem from setting the HTML style behavior to smooth. Thank you all for your intended help!
I have created a gif in photoshop. It has two frames displayed for 4 seconds each and is on a loop forever.
For some reason the image freezes on the second frame and does not continue to load in some browsers (The exact information about browsers and / or versions is unclear at the moment but it has happened in the latest version of chrome).
The image is embedded in the code in the standard way, no javascript is used and nothing is changing the element.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Everything I have searched for so far seems to result in people saying "Oh, I forgot to put make the gif loop forever" instead of any real reasons for causing this problem.
Thank you for your help!
Edit: Sorry I didn't think about putting an image in the original post. He is an example of one advert which doesn't seem to work.
Because the current image displays correctly in everything I've tryed so far, try to create image in different application.
Some applications you may try:
GIMP - tutorial
Some freeware crap.
I'd vote for GIMP. Its complicated, but its free and it has wide user suport.
If you still fail...
Now its time to check the enviroment. First, open the image on different machine. Maybe there is something wrong with your browser instalation. In this case, reinstall.
Try to upload on different server. Maybe your browser does not correctly decompress deflated data or has other communication issues.
I was looking at the thumbnail image in a Shutterfly rss feed and the link is
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procgtaserv/47a2d624b3127cce9854b08c5baa00000039100AYtWzNi4Yt2Qg
and this renders out a ~3KB thumbnail, as expected.
I compared it to the link to the image on the actual Shutterfly page, which has the same apparent link:
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procgtaserv/47a2d624b3127cce9854b08c5baa00000035100AYtWzNi4Yt2Qg
But when I click this link, it renders out a ~60KB image.
I've looked at this in Fiddler and Chrome Dev tools and can't see anything different in the requests that would tell the server what size to render. I've even tried copying these links into Firefox to see if it was a browser/cookie type issue but they render differently there too.
I'm driving myself crazy trying to figure out what's going on. Can anyone shed some light on this?
The two websites are different.

I opened both links in different tabs in Chrome. Then, flipped back and forth between the two tabs, staring at the URLs. There was a minor flash where the 9 changed to a 5, and vice versa.
I'm pulling my hair out over this probably very simple problem..
I just built a website for an iphone repair company:
http://www.cellcity.co.nz/
When viewed on google chrome and safari the website shows up without any problems,
when viewed on internet explorer i just have the mobile optimised version showing while i get around to sorting out its problems.
but on firefox all my elements are pushed up one pixel. I have all the content within a table within divs, have a quick look at my source code or request some code to be shown. I don't understand what could be wrong, I am using the border-collapse css style, maybe that might be a contributing factor?
Thanks in advance,
Matt
Ok I figured out that for every css class and id, you can make a firefox independant one that is only seen by firefox. Just place #-moz-document url-prefix() {.....} around the second version of your css class and firefox will override the old version =D
hopefully this helps someone else!
I have been developing a media player browser plugin for the past few month using Firebreath, but I do not think this is a Firebreath problem.
Currently I am stuck on this weird problem that occurs when one tries to reload the webpage containing the plugin. The image that was being displayed before the reload will stay stuck on the top of screen. The new reloaded plugin will be alive and well behind it but the old image will stay stuck their on the screen forever. If I scroll or resize the browser or even change URLs the image will stay put, however If I move the browser the image will follow. The image stays after closing a tab, but leaves when closing the window
Here is a screenshot that demonstrates what I am talking about.

Has you can see I left my plugin's page and went to the Firebreath website and the image still persists.
This problem happens on both windows and linux, much less frequently on linux, and happens when using both directx and opengl. But only happens on chrome.
Just wondering if you, or anybody else, has any thoughts, suggestions, or insights as to what might be happening. I've tried everything including atrocious hacks and nothing seems to work.
Thank you.
Your problem is most likely that you aren't tearing down your directx or opengl context when the DetachedEvent fires. AttachedEvent is the earliest you can set it up, and DetachedEvent is the latest you can leave it running.
