This is not a request for help...just a friendly warning to all...
I'm designing a website for a fellow. He went to look at the home page I had made and the top image (you could call it the header) did not display. It displayed for him on another computer and it displayed on my computer. And all other images were displaying. The path was right. Everything was fine...as far as I could see.
So, I had him "view source"...the <img> element was completely gone in the HTML document!!!!
He tried viewing the document with Nortons turned off. He could see it and the <img> element was in the code. Norton's was actually deleting it.
The problem? My <img> had an id="banner"...I changed all words containing "banner" from the document and replaced them with "topPic" (who cares what I call it, right?) I guess Norton's looks for keywords or something.
Probably common knowledge for most, but not for me. Be careful what you name your elements and images.
That's interesting. I often use id="hdr" on my sites. I wonder if it would delete an entire div id="banner"? I don't have Norton's to check that with, so would you mind doing that for us and report back? Is anyone aware of any other "reserved" words like this?
He probably has norton ad-blocking on and has configuired it to block all tags with certain words in. Amongst those would probably be banners, ad, ads or anything which would suggest an advertisement of some sort.
It's all manually configurable so each set of strings would differ between users.
I stopped using its ad-blocking ages ago. It was too difficult to ad new banner ad strings and nearly always blocked useful pictures. It also added javascript code to html documents.
I have Norton Firewall and I checked all the info out. It blocks anything which has a vaguely advert-related term in it, but only on what it classifies as uncertified sites. There are options to allow certain sites through, but its not really a good idea to get all visitors with Norton to do that
Just another something for webmasters to think about when designing sites.
Thanks for reviewing this problem. I didnīt know about it but Norton is a very used antivirus so its good to be aware of those things. If "banner" is, I suppose there are other blocked words, like maybe "popup" or "spyware"...
But the problem won't fix by us having our norton configured, becouse most users dont know how to do it.
A few months ago i had a problem like that and it was that dame norton thing which caused the trouble, i figure it out but didnt know why, til now... and take a look at my code:
The only thing that was messing was the actual name of the swf file... I think that norton should take a note about this, becouse most users dont know what to do about this, so it should be better if this feature would be 'hidden' but for the advanced settings for someone to hide, I'm not sure where its set as deffault but ...
Hey all: I have a problem with my desktop. I have replaced the PSU a few times but now have a new
problem. When I turn on the power the green led on the asus motherboard glows green, but it is a
dull green and I cannot power up the machine. After some time (30-60 secs or more) it turns bright
green and I can power up. Then sometimes I am in the middle of working and the power will just
reset. When the computer boots up it starts loading the drivers then reboots again and keeps doing
this so it keeps rebooting and rebooting and rebooting and rebooting and rebooting ....
Hi, I recently added PmWiki to my website. It is a great software, both light-weight and useful
with a lot of extensions. But a thorn is still in my side which is the attachments problem. When I
upload photos in a page the attachment just shows up like a text link which points to the uploaded
image without any image display. So I got stuck where I decided to make some profile pages for my
club members. Anybody here knows what to do? I have a little experience with PmWiki but I suggest
it to you if you do not want to be over killed by a system like what Wikipedia use....
Hi, I have noticed a bit of a problem with the forums here on Trap17. I don't know if this is a
problem with the Trap17 implementation, or with Invision Power Board in general, or with a mod that
is running on the forums here, and I'm sure that someone smarter than me can isolate the source
of the problem. What I have noticed firstly is that the link that is generated in the top right
corner of a post within a thread, the link to that particular post (I'll call that the linkback
link), sometimes links to the post itself, but often just links to the thread. T....

Hi, Im working on a website, and im trying to make a right-click menu, which opens on right click,
wherever the cursor is, and closes on mouse out. I wrote the code below, and when i ran it in IE it
ran fine, just how i wanted it to work. However in firefox, the menu just opened in the top left. im
presuming this is because it doesnt like my style changing in the javascript. Any ideas, and
suggestions? If i cant make this work, i will just make it so it works slightly differently when
viewev in firefox so that it can just open in one place. All ideas appreciated. ....

Very, very annoying. I am happy YouTube user - I probably spend some hours there every week. I
mostly look and listen to music but I also watch different shows. I always try to comment on
videos, if I like the videos or not. So many users seem to have a motto that says "Don't like,
don't watch." Well I have to watch it to know if I like it or not, right?! And that is not
even the worst part. It is almost like some people think you should only comment if you like it, and
if you have something else to say about it then you should glue your fingers together wi....
Hey! I just like fiddling around with making websites, and I'm working on one at the moment.
However, while I can the text box to align on the designated area on the background image on my
monitor, I'm well aware that with other resolutions and web browsers, it doesn't. (I use
Firefox) A buddy told me to looks up some CSS but I'm not very good with it at all. What do I
need to do to get it to centre regardless of the screen resolution the viewer uses? The website is

I am wondering how many more times I will have to post about a problem that has been going on for
far too long now. I know it might not help nagging about it here, but I have submitted tickets,

really getting enough of it now. What are Xisto/Trap 17 up to? Ever since the server migration,
there have been nothing but problems, and what is more, I am beginning to get the impression the
powers that be could not care less, as they do not reply to your tickets, and the problems do ....
