Hello folks,

I am creating this very simple and cute website in Dreamweaver 8. It's basically finished and looks neat on Firefox, Opera, Safari & Camino

BUT

all recent versions (from 5.5 - 8) of Internet Explorer seem to hate it - means that they don't want to display my embed images (ordinary .jpg) and my flash movie!

With IE it looks like there is some problem with the links I have set for my media but there is not!

The domain is http://www.fillyourheart.com

I'll also attach the code of the html-file (if you need to see it).

A big THANK YOU already in advance to the unlucky helper who had the same problem before also

HTML-file:

That's weird i see everything perfectly in IE8 accept the embed movie. IE has been giving me a lot of trouble as of late i have switched over to firefox, firefox seems to run a lot smoother than IE.

That is not valid in an XHTML doctype.

Neither is <center> - that's what CSS is for!

I'll never see the point of sticking div inside of tables

Look in the stickies on other, better, methods for putting flash on your site.

I have to tell you, all that garbage you have STUFFED into your meta tags is pointless. It is of NO HELP whatsoever.

**Candyman87** · 02-07-2009, 03:38 PM

So... Last update:

The website is working now! WOW!!

The reason:

HTML Code:

<base href="" target="_blank" />

When we took off that little piece of... CODE

everything was suddenly working (it displays the images, the flash video and the link is finally working).

LadynRed, you're a genius, thank you so much!
If I can efford a web designer one day would you be interested?

**LadynRed** · 02-08-2009, 07:05 PM

Depends on the job

**Brian07002** · 02-08-2009, 08:55 PM

normally putting a # in the href tag would be considered a vaild doctype, but not blank like you had it.

FYI: You would want to put a # in the href tag if you wanted to create a link that goes 'nowhere'. but you can't do that with an empty href.
