Title: How do I see the track plan in a thread?
Post by: Homeless by Choice on January 13, 2017, 06:48:17 PM
Please help me to see the track plan in thread:

This is what I see:

Obviously Dean can see it.  What am I doing wrong?  Where should I be looking to change some setting?
Thanks for your help

LeRoy, what browser are you using? Is it on a MAC?

Does this link work for you?

1.  I am using Firefox on Windows 10.

2.  Yes, when I double click your posted link, it opens correctly.

3.  So what am I not doing or doing wrong?

Thanks,
LeRoy

Bill,
Yes, both images are immediately showing.

I haven't looked at what you suggested in the previous post.  I belong to three other forums and the images have always and still immediately show.

Thanks,
LeRoy

Hi Bill,
I just read thru this website.  I reviewed all the suggestions.  Everything seemed to be the way FireFox suggests.  I didn't change a thing.  I DID NOT clear the "cookies or cache" because I don't want to recreate them for my other secure sites.

Since I didn't find anything useful, I went back into the site in question, "http://rpug.pdc.ca/index.php/topic,319.msg2096.html#new".  It now displays the layout fully as it is suppose to.  There were no updates or programs added to my computer since last Friday, seven days ago.  All the while images on my other forums worked correctly.  The gremlin seems to have left.  I am glad but I am also concerned as to what allowed the gremlin to invade my computer.

Thanks for your help,
LeRoy

Most likely the image failed to fully download the first time and it sat corrupted in your cache until it timed out and reloaded.

Cheers!

LeRoy,

Next time that happens pres <ctrl> <shift> Q in Firefox while on the forum page. That will open the Network monitor. Click the Network Monitor "Reload" button. It will then show you the download status of each element on the page. If you see an image with a RED indicator or 0 bytes size then that is an image that is supposed to be there but didn't make it for some reason. Pressing <shift> refresh often fixes it.

Alan,

Thanks for your reply.  I made a copy of it and placed it next to my computer.
