Testing a setup with GGmaps from Calguys Google Maps:
All works well in firefox!
in IE I get to see an incomplete map of nothing relevant?
Is this a known problem?
What to do?
TIA

There are some errors in your CSS, maybe worth fixing first? Also your code is invalid and may need to work? This will probably solve your problems?

I'm sorry I don't have time to look through all your code :-), but use the validators, which list the errors and what is wrong
Code
http://validator.w3.org/

CSS
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/

Better still, get the Firefox Web Developer Toolbar - HTML check and CSS check are in their or use the web utilities.

You appear to be mixing table and CSS style web page design, not perhaps the best idea. Fix the Code first and then the CSS and then come back if you are still having problems in IE.

Hope this helps?

Russ,


Thank you for the links for the html check , very usefull!!
I changed the template for the page in question and have no more html errors, so the template i am using is not the best ..
Anyway the result of the GGmap stays the same .. in IE i do not geta correct page with the map.

Do you get the correct local french map in IE?
Can you have a look in Firefox as well and tell me what you get?
TIA
Hugo
ps:did you see the bookbinding site?

I'm still seeing errors? in HTML and CSS
http://poisson-clement.fr/index.php?page=contactez-nous

Most html errors in code below. Attributes should be lower case and properly closed, I'd just remove the table stuff and format paragraphs with CSS...

Code: Select all

<table width=100% height=100% align=center valign=top>

<TR>
<TD width=300 valign=top><br /><u>Poissonnerie - Traiteur</u></TD>
<TD rowspan=2><img src="uploads/clement/logo2.gif" alt="" height=120px /></TD>
<TD width=200 valign=top><br /><u>Fermé le lundi<u></TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD width=300 valign=top>

</TD>
</TR>


<TR>
<TD width=200 valign=top> </TD>
<TD valign=top> </TD>

<TD width=200 valign=top> </TD>
</table>

Probable problematic CSS Errors

Code: Select all

URI : http://poisson-clement.fr/stylesheet.php?cssid=101
9 	body 	Value Error : line-height Too many values or values are not recognized : 1,1em
100 	code 	Value Error : font-family Lexical error at line 99, column 69. Encountered: "\n" (10), after : "\"Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" font-size: 1em;
Looks OK in Firefox, Safari, but Opera is having problems on my Mac (no IE). Fix errors first and let's have a look then.

Yes it validates and looks fine in all my browsers? Do you still have a problem in IE? Which version?

I'm going to have to leave it there for a while, one of our servers is down...

IE shows a wrong map with wrong parameters and it loads only partially.

Maybe vml. I can't see it on your page so...

Try adding this to the page in Metadata - it may have to go right under you Doctype so you will need to use a separate page template for this page or some Smarty magic?

Actually ignore that last post,  if you turn JS off in IE it gives a Smarty Error concerning the CGGoogleMaps plugin?

Check your CG maps is the latest, check you have all the dependency modules e.g. CGExtensions

What version you on?

Hi Russ,

I have the same problem than hugosnel with your excellent modules.
The url is : http://www.cadeaux-vogue.be/plan-d-acces

I use the lastest version of CGExtensions (1.14.1) and CGGooleMaps (1.1) and I have the problem only with IE (Grrrr).

I attach a screenshot (may help).

Do you see a solution for it ?

Thank you very much

I think that for less than IE 7 you still need the VML stuff

But as this is not working in IE 7 either, it must be something else.

You could try changing your DOCTYPE too to get rid of your HTML validation errors... something like

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<__html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="fr" xml:lang="fr">
<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml">
<![endif]-->
And if you can get the page to validate then lets take it from there.
