| 310315 | 2005-01-04 07:14:00 | There must be others here using Firefox, could they go to www.amazon.co.uk and report how the site displays to help Terry determine if he has a problem. See previous post from Terry on how they appear when using IE and FF |

| 310317 | 2005-01-04 07:24:00 | Using Firefox and viewing the amazon .uk versus the .com site, there is a difference with how the images are displayed. If you go to Preferences > Web features > Load Images and remove the tick from beside "for the originating site only" and then refresh the .uk site, you will find the images now display. It must be how .uk has their images linked. | Jen (38) | ||

It must be how .uk has their images linked. Jen has just solved your problem Terry. It was pointing to something like that as has already been mentioned there are very few sites that have a problem with FF You might now be able to enjoy it more but if you still have problems consider that it could be some configuration on something else on your system |

| 310319 | 2005-01-04 07:56:00 | Oh fantastic Jen, and Safari. That's great, not only are all the Amazon sites now working properly in FF, but images on another site I go to load now even though it is the originating site. I hadn't thought of twiddling with that setting. I will now reduce the 'zillion' sites to maybe a handful. I must check Ebay and Paypal too, they gave me problems with Firefox. :) |

| 310320 | 2005-01-04 07:58:00 | The UK site of course, sal.neoburn.net Likewise... displays fine here. The other site mentioned (live365.com) has it's own custom IE plugin for playing the media they provide, however they allow you to choose from a list of external players when you use another browser: www.live365.com |

| 310321 | 2005-01-04 08:04:00 | Not only one eyed,but loud,crude and impolite. firefox is the wicked. That is all. Thought i might revisit the above post,Seems it may have ruffled a few feathers amongst those that ride high horses, The description was of me (which should have been obvious, who else would it be describing) Perhaps some people should read the thread before mounting up, and preaching judgement from the mount about those who follow up a post with a "non sequitur" |

| 310322 | 2005-01-04 08:07:00 | Another site that doesnt work correctly (for me) with Firefox is Live365.com. Their 365 player is designed for IE only. Now this doesnt worry me too much since I subscribe and run their Radio 365 VIP player which is browser independent. You don't have to use their Radio 365 player. You can listen to Live365.com using players such as RealPlayer, Winamp, Sonique, MusicMatch, or Windows Media Player. You can also use any MP3 player, even iTunes, very smart you should try it. |

Even after a quick search it still doesn't make sense. I don't know why people insist on using unusual words. All it does is make people waste their time and visit dictionary.com. If no-one understands what you are trying to say, what's the point of posting it in the first place? People will just glance over your post and ignore you. :) |

It must be how .uk has their images linked. Loads fine for me, took a screen shot but won't bother as Metla has posted his. It's a handy feature to have Jen, can this be done with security levels in IE? I darn't look, I might become beguiled by IE's charms ;) Anyway, it seems Amazon UK or the parent company is trying to save a little on disk space. Thanks to the promiscuity of IE it still displays fine for the majority of users, and, there's no need to suffer the pox as long as you keep taking the antibiotics. |
