I'm having a very bizarre issue. I have been building a website locally on my linux box and all was well until I uploaded the site files to a place where i have some hosted space. Everything renders exactly the same except one element in my footer which i think is affecting some jquery animation i am using. I thought maybe I was missing files or hadn't uploaded the latest versions of everything, so I deleted the server directory and re-uploaded everything exactly as is from my local copy. And yet, the problem remains. I'm not sure how this is happening. Has anyone seen this before, or does anyone have an idea what could cause this? I'm baffled! Thanks everyone!!! I am attaching screen shots.
Seems to be a cache problem. Try to force a refresh with F5 or CTRL+F5.
Try clear your cache in your browser settings.
If that don't work, use Firebug (an Firefox browser addon) to check actual css at your footer. This will show the problem.
BTW: don't use spaces in your URL if you can. Don't use spaces in your filenames/folders.

I just ran into a problem, While I was updating the js and css files for my website on a server, I do not see the immediate change. However, if I were to edit these files on a local computer or go on incognito mode on chrome, I see the change right away.
let's say I have:
div{width:100px}
after I change it to div{width:200px}, when I pop open the developer tool, it still reads div{width:100px}.
I feel like I need to clear something for the broswer, any explanation for this?
Check the caching headers you are using for static resources. The browser is likely using a cached version.
I'm trying to redesign a small portion of vastly huge site and I was told that I can load custom images to Inspect Element (Chrome) if they are located in the same path as the stylesheet to which the site is remapped. (all done through css via 'content: url('...');') but the webpage is still looking for them in its own resources. So is there a way to use a locally stored image with Inspect Element?
When you're passing images in locally you can use, for example:
file:///C:/Users/[username]/Desktop/picture.png
So if I was to change a background image I would use
background-image:url("file:///C:/Users/Julia/Desktop/background.png");
But note that a lot of sites don't allow you to load local resources, so an error may appear in the inspect console when you try.
Actually, it only works with background instead of background-image (not sure if it works) but background without image seems to work. So put in:
file:///Users/[YourName]/Documents/picture.png
Like this:
background:url("file:///Users/[YourName]/Documents/picture.png")
I just decided to contribute because I just wanted to try it out myself as well and found this as the first answer despite the post being 2-3 yrs old; although for other users it might be helpful.
Also, this was done on Opera, but haven't tried it on other browsers, but it does work for me. Don't include the drive name. But you can simply copy the URL, by dragging the image into the browser (if it loads it) and copy the link. It should work (usually older browsers that don't auto-download the image).
I'm having a bit of trouble with a client site, on their server (our development server is fine).
We were hoping to push it live today, so we created a test subdomain to make sure his server's okay with the site.
However, the media uploader doesn't seem to work properly. The file will upload, without any error messages, however, instead of displaying the image in the thumbnail preview, it shows a little blue ?.
The file is actually uploaded to the server, but for some reason it can't be displayed online.
For example this should be the location of a newly upload image, but for some reason it can't be accessed.
I was thinking the issue is with folder permissions, but changing everything to 777 didn't seem to do anything. So I'm a little confused as to what's wrong.
Apparently they host a couple dozen WordPress sites and don't have this issue. I did think it's a server problem because it works on two other servers.
Anyone had an issue like this before?
[EDIT]
It turns out deactivating a plugin called Sell Media Watermark does the trick.
However, this plugin is needed so I'm working to find a fix for it :)
I have a HTML file, which I've uploaded as a web resource and linked to via an activity's form designer in an IFRAME. So far, so good.
Then, when I edited the source file locally and uploaded it (browse-save-publish, of course), I got no difference in the appearance on the screen. Here's the weird part. When I open the uploaded file in the editor, I can see the changes to my source code. On the RTF tab I can also see the change in colors of the background.
However, reloading the "create new"-form doesn't bring those changes to the client! I've tried restarting the window, restarting IE, clearing the cache. Nothing helps.
When I entered the very same page from a different client, I got to see the updated version. But after that, the subsequent changes are not updated either. It's like if IE thinks "oh, matey, ya wanna cache that for life, I see". Well, I don't. I'd like to see my edition in action pretty much directly and without creating a new account with a new client. :)
After a while, the update seems to go through and I get to see a new version but not in all browsers.
What is causing it?! How do I kill it?

I have seen CRM do some weird IIS Caching. I'd assume this is a server side issue, but your using crm online, they won't let you run an IIS reset now will they? :) Have you tried running it on a new client in private browsing mode, deploying your change, and opening a new private browser to test if it is a client caching issue or a server caching issue?
I'm making a webpage in Drupal 6.26, and I blocked in a strange thing. I develop both in Localhost, and online, and the strange is that some how in online the primary links are empty (but there's element on it I can see in /admin/build/menu-customize/primary-links also in this page the menu elements appeared in the place, but in the other pages they don't), but in Localhost everything is ok, and i checked all of the settings and they are the same, the theme files are the same to,(and i didn't change anything in the other drupal files), the only difference is that the online page is set in offline (because the under maintenance), and I tried it to make it online, but the problem is still there, so I don't really have any idea.
That might be a theme problem. Make sure your local configuration has the same active theme as the installation on the public server. Try switching to a default theme that comes with Drupal.
Another cause might be one of your modules. Try disabling all but the system modules and then start re-enabling them one-by-one to see which one changes your menu.
