I made a website with custom fonts embedded on the website using font-face. The font embed works fine across all major browsers on Windows, including IE7. However in IE6 the embedded fonts tend to disappear from time to time.
This only occurs on the website after I have implemented on CMS Made Simple however (and then it only occurs on IE6 during navigation between pages).
Template: http://www.vdpwebsites.com.au/tony/2011/bindara/index.html
(pages available: home, about us, stallions)
CMSMS: http://203.98.84.170/~bindara/
I think it might be a loading problem or something. On my template when I navigate/go between pages I can see the font first appearing in arial, before being replaced by the embedded font.
when you first go to the website on CMSMS the embedded font shows, but when you switch pages it gets stuck on arial. The only way to get it to show the embedded font again is to reload the page (ctrl F5) or clear the cache. Refresh doesn't do anything but replace the embedded font with arial if it was showing.
I'm running windows 7, and the IE6 is running off a Virtual PC. I'm not sure if the same would occur for someone who were using IE6 on their actual machine. Can anyone test this for me?
Cheers
I checked the site on a remote IE6 machine. I did not ever see the embedded font fail to load. Though I did see Arial at first, after a few seconds the embedded font loaded.

I am working on some website edits for a client and am running into an issue where the website no longer loads consistently in Safari. It will sometimes load if refreshed enough times but generally it just shows a white screen.
I have only made a couple of small changes to the site in their host Web.com's website builder (editing the navigation and removing a few buttons from pages), so I'm super confused on what would have caused this to happen. The website can be viewed here: https://www.larrypratt.com/
Has anyone encountered this sort of thing before? Thanks.
In my web site, 'sometimes' the font awesome icons are not loading. It shows only as squares.
When I googled I found out that to change the .htaccess file in the server. But my web site is hosted in weblogic server. Is there any equivalent to .htaccess file in weblogic.
I encountered this issue only in firefox. But other people have got it in IE 11 as well. In my case, when I clear the cache and open it, it loads also.
Pleade let me know, if anyone understands what's happening here. Thsnks in advance
So I was messing with my Wii U's web browser and found their cool little developer tools feature. I enabled it and loaded up my website.
While inspecting it, I found something weird - the website's body displays as 980 pixels wide, even though the gamepad is only 854 pixels wide according to Wikipedia.
If it matters, here's a link to my site, but I'm pretty sure it's not my code that's doing this. Any ideas?
The viewport of the browser is 980 pixels wide. This is most often seen on mobile browsers, where emulating desktop dimensions would be troublesome; not sure why they would feel the need to do the same in this situation. Perhaps they ported an existing mobile browser? You can control this behaviour by using the <meta> element on your website.
I have had a report that my company's website is resizing at least one employee's browser windows. I experienced this behavior myself on the user's computer, and it was mystifying because the resizing only occurred on our site, not on any other site, and it occurred on both Firefox and Internet Explorer. The user has a Windows 7 machine running updated software. She has no add-ons, themes, or plugins besides the usual (Flash etc.) and her settings are the factory defaults. I cleared the browser cache on both browsers and restarted the computer and it still occurred. The only thing left is the css, but none of it seems suspicious to me.
What is happening is, when she clicks a button or internal link on the site, then when the new page finishes loading, the browser window resizes to approximately 80% of the width of the content. That is, the very last thing the page does as it loads is to resize itself. If she zooms in or out, then on the next load, it again resizes to 80% or so of the smaller or larger size of the content. If she maximizes and then loads a page, then the window resizes to 80% but somehow maintains the "maximized" icon. (You then have to click twice on the "maximized" icon to maximize.)
The reason I am flummoxed is that I thought this kind of behavior was something you could only do with JavaScript, but I deliberately tested this with pages that had no JavaScript at all and it still occurred. There is exactly one page on the website that has browser-resizing JavaScript on it, but it resizes to a pixel size, not a percentage, and it's part of a web service that wasn't in use while I was testing.
What kinds of things should I investigate to solve this issue? Because this is an employee, I have to either fix the website or fix her computer, so ideas for investigating both would be great.
The problem turned out to be that single page with browser-resizing JavaScript I mentioned. Another set of pages had needed some JavaScript functions from that web service, so one person had copy-and-pasted the functions that were needed. Then someone else came along, noticed that the copy-pasting was a dumb idea, and decided to simply include the JavaScript file that had those functions instead.
The problem was, the command to resize the window was bare in that file. For that one user, that command was being carried out and resizing every window. For everyone else, their browsers were ignoring the resize command except on the web-service popup window. I can only assume she had the problem because she had factory-standard settings, and the rest of us didn't. To fix the problem, I moved the resize command from the JavaScript file to the head of the web service page.
I use the webbrowser control to display a webpage from an application, but it just displayed a white screen. I tried Internet Explorer and it did not display anything either.
Any ideas how to fix this problem.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Windows Phone Emulator requires a DirectX 10 or above capable graphics card with a WDDM 1.1 driver. I assume that you got an error message on first start of the emulator that your graphic adapter isn't capable for all functions the emulator is using and that this may impact XNA games and sometimes silverlight like this one:
If your graphic adapter does not fully support DirectX 10 or doesn't has a WDDM 1.1 driver you will only see a white screen instead of the rendered webpage. This also affects all controls using MultiScaleImage, including the webbrowser control. As far as I know there is no solution for this at the moment.
To check if the emulator is running the required GPU emulation take a look at the arrow to open the application list and if it points to the right or left. If it points to the left, NO GPU is available - if it points to the right (as on the hardware phone itself) the GPU is available and rendering should work as expected.

You haven't said if you're testing a local/private page or one on the web.
Also test other pages on the web. Can you view anything or just your own page.
If you can't see pages on the public web then you have a networking issue
If you can see public pages but not locally hosted ones then you probably have a different networking issue. If you're on an actual device or the emulator will likely greatly affect this.
The other things it may are:
you're trying to view a page that is to compilcated to be displayed (if there is such a thing - test with a very simple static page first)
the page uses useragent detecction and doesn't recognise the user agent and so is serving nothing
the page has complex javascript which runs before the page is rendered and the javascript is failing and so the page is never displayed.
