Hi, I've mentioned this before in a previous post but I've created a billboard which works how I want it to, but when I load any page that has the billboard embeded, in IE it displays all images down the page when it first loads, evey time, see: www.thehairrestorationclinic.co.uk/test.html,
George posted that there is a problem whith IE and a 'hack' could be the soloution, what should I be searching for to find such a hack, is there any way you could include some details to prevent the above happening,

Kind Regards,

Lee.

Sorry Lee - seems this can't be improved with a short fix.

We really need to build this in the next update as it is much more complicated.

So please remove all hacks for now and leave the Sliding Billboard as generated.

We hope to have the update ready soon.

Greetings,
George

Hi Lee,

Not likely. The next two weeks are fully booked. An update will be released in two weeks at the earliest.

Kind regards, Patrick

Hi, really disappointed that it cant be done sooner, in reality the billboard can not be added to a page that has any content/design underneath it, but no mention of this when buying it.

Lee.

Sorry for that Lee,

But this is an IE only cosmetic problem that we hope to be able to fix with an update by doing many IE hacks. However this takes research and testing time and I hope we succeed ... we don't want to break other browsers compatibility.

Just to make sure your realise the problem I am having, it is with Firefox, Safari and IE, have a look at:

www.thehairrestorationclinic.co.uk/index.php

Can someone please get back to me on this, as I say all images in the billboard when the page loads appear down the page, can you find a solution for this?

Regrds,

Lee.

Hi Lee,

In Firefox to loading goes really fast so the visibility isn't a big issue.

We will be solving the problem by introducing a new option to make the billboard invisible initially till it is fully loaded. So this will solve any visual loading issues.

The downside is that if people don't have javascript enabled they won't see the billboard at all. However this isn't a big issue as everybody have javascript enabled this days.

George

Hi George,

thanks for the reply, do you have the code now to add to the billboard to do as you say or do I have to wait for update?

Hi lee,

I've investigated your code but seems the whole javascript code on the pages is all in different places and corrupted.

Could you please recreate the page from scratch? I think it will be easier then fixing all the code manually.

Make sure you have the latest SBB version and you should be fine. i think something went wrong in the transition from the previous version and the manual code adjustments you have made.

So let me know how it goes.

Greetings,
George
