MODx Parse Error on IE only?!

I’m in the process of setting up my new VPS.
when I test modx site with FF or Opera everything seems okay, but when I use IE7 I get this parse error:



I think the problem is in the part where I’m missing "/" /httpdocsassets/

but can’t find why.
anyone have a direction for me please?

Do you know what snippet or file is asking for accept-credit-cards.png? The code for that request would be where to start (unless you have a flawed rewrite rule in .htaccess).

You could try turning off FURLs and renaming .htaccess. If that fixes it, it’s a rewrite problem.

thanks bob.
whats odd I can see this error only on IE,
if I remove the credit card chunks altogether the error returns with another image name.

somewhere along I have "assets/images/" added to all my images urls.

I also only see it on IE7. It’s fine in Chrome and FF3. I’m using the default IE7 security settings so you definitely have a problem.

I’ve noticed in the past that some browsers are more forgiving of path mistakes than others. For example, if you use base_path when you should have used base_url in the path to a URL-type resource (e.g. an image), some browsers will figure out what you meant and make it work and others won’t.

I thought its only in the visual rendering of the page but not causing modx to show the error.

I wonder what causes this issue.
Do you think it could be the fact that I didn’t do the dns changes yet to the new server?

It seems like assets/images/ is added for no reason and I can’t figure where it comes from.
when I tried with htaccess renamed and FURLs turned off I get the same error.

I checked the site configuration in manager and don’t see what would add the assets/images/.

I’m afraid I’m clueless on this one. I hope someone else has a good idea.

I think it’s the base_dir path being prepended to the image path - not the other way round.

Now, I had a look and also get the error but on the mysql.png image - looking at the image link, it’s different to the other image links in that it’s referencing the image as a full path (rather than relatively):

I’d put money on the fact that IE is passing the link URL back differently to the other browsers and that is triggering the base_dir error. You have a <base> tag so you should be fine keeping all links etc. as being relative paths.

Try changing that link to be relative (and repeat if it trips on other images) - see if that works. Curiously, do you have safe mode/open_basedir settings activated in your php.ini? It may be worth looking into disabling them if you have further problems (or if not in php.ini, there’s a remote chance that the host is setting them elsewhere)

EDIT: One more thing, check your plugins - looking at the location of the error in the document parser class it looks like the file_exists() call is originating from a plugin. Do you have a plugin that is perhaps checking images links? (quick way to find out the culprit plugin is to disable them one by one)

you hit it right on the nail, it was my PNGAlpha4MSIE plugin causing it. great now I can try to figure why.
thanks so much. this all %^$%$% weekend I try to figure it.
