    Hi all,

    The subject line pretty much sums it up. If I upload an image to the main images folder (assets/images) everything is fine. If I create a subfolder, and put an image in there (ex., assets/images/ads), it’s fine for IE9,IE8,IE7, Safari on Windows, Chrome on Windows, Safari on OSX, Chrome on OSX. However, on Firefox for Windows and OSX, the image is invisible on both the public page and in the thumbnail displayed within the manager.

    The weird thing is, if I hit "view source" when viewing the page, I can click on the image src and view the image within Firefox’s source viewer just fine.

    Here’s a page to show as an example:
    http://web.vaxxine.com/darrenp/mody/index.php?id=130

    The upper left image - the bottom right of the 4 smaller images is invisible. If you hit "view source" and click on the image link it shows up. This is for Firefox 3.6.12.

    My modx version is 1.0.4.
    My PHP version is 4.4.7.
    Version codename rev 6981
    Access permissions Enabled
    Database (MySQL) Version 4.1.20
    Database Charset latin1
    Database Collation Charset latin1_swedish_ci

    Server is Linux running Apache2.

      I see same images on that link in FF for windows as in IE9, however the page is in quirks mode...

        How strange, I get different behaviour:



        Maybe it’s just my machine, hah.

        Also, here’s what it looks like within the manager: note that the thumbnail doesn’t appear for the image in question, and that it is the image within a subfolder:

          Frank - I’ve looked into this further and the problem only exists in Firefox for Windows *7* and Mac OSX. In Windows XP everything functions as expected.

            did you fix the quirks mode? I got the experience that FF is just a bit stronger on applying to the W3CS rules. SO fix that quirkes moede. Is your website on furl? (think is is)

              I solved the problem. The subfolder was titled "Ads" and I was running adblock on all versions of Firefox that I was using.

              Apologies for this (now, in hindsight) stupid post!

              I should also mention that I did indeed try another subfolder just to see if the folder was corrupt, but I named the other subfolders "ads" (lower-case a) and "adverts", which would obviously be expected to produce the same result.
