Hi Jerry,

Try moving the following from your header JS code box to your footer JS code box in your customization:

showPhotoBar = false;
useLightbox = false;

See if that works.

Barb - that seems to have fixed it. Thank you so much!

Barb - would you mind looking into my site again please at http://sealifeimages.smugmug.com/ . I now have 2 other IE viewing problems, while FF seems to be ok.

Your earlier suggestions on how to remove the photo bar and light box as seen in IE were perfect.

The mistake I made was trying to do additional adjustments on homepage box sizes and I cut & pasted something wrong which resulted in huge viewing problems in FF and IE. I then went back to my copies of code that I update when changes are made. Well, evidently I also had cut & paste errors in making those copies, and now things are a mess. I've learned my lesson to be more careful on those copies in the future.

I tried further tweaking and got everything working right in FF, but IE still has two problems -

1. the search tool appears on all pages, when it is supposed to not be visible anywhere.

2. when clicking on a category thumbnail on the homepage, vanity urls are supposed to enable viewers to skip a gallery page, with a single gallery thumbnail, and go directly to the gallery. The 2 categories are "new" and "islands" .


I would greatly appreciate any help you could give me on this.

Hi Jerry,

Checked your site in IE and did not see the search box. Is that resolved for you?

Hi Barb. Thanks for looking in.

The search tool did disappear in IE after a couple days, but I don't know why...it seemed to disappear on its own, without my changing any code! I know that sounds crazy. And now, only in IE, a text bubble is showing up when hovering over images or thumbs. Again, seemingly on its own without me changing anything. I had inserted code many months ago to eliminate the text bubble.

Any ideas on how to remove the text bubble in IE?

Thanks

Hi Jerry,

I looked through your code, and what I can suggest is that you possibly redo the JS you are using for removing the text bubble. Not sure from which post you got the code, but here is one you can look at:

You may also just want to double-check all of your javascript in your customization. Something is giving a JS error in IE. Without removing all of your JS and replacing it one by one, I'm not sure what's doing it.
