Alternate Subject: Chicken Little, puzzled, admits mistake
These things are always elusive to us kindergarteners.
Accidents happen! :o)
I can view the eBay alternate photos with Mozilla 1.3.1. However, it does not work the same way as the same operation in Explorer.
After loading an eBay page with a main photo and alternate photos, I scroll down and click on an alternate photo. Then, the entire page reloads with the main photo in place. It looks like nothing has happened. (Explorer gives me an alternate photo at this point in the enlarged field)
But, if I click again on the alternate photo, it eventually appears in the enlarged field. This can take a lot longer than I am used to. I can now click on all alternate photos and they will eventually appear in the enlarged field.
In Netscape this is what I was getting...the page would reload and then the pictures were clickable.
In the interim between my original message and this one, I have managed to download and install Flash Player 7, after being prompted to do so by a web page which did not show graphics without that plug-in. The graphics did appear on that page after the installation. Have I discovered that the plug-in was needed for the eBay photos? The Mozilla About Plug-ins page tells me that Shockwave Flash 7 comes installed in the browser. I guessed that this is a combination of Shockwave Player and Flash Player, but it must not be.
I do have Flash Player installed (to see an advertising type thing on my auctions) but I don't think it has anything to do with what you are seeing. I did just check the auction you have sent and that is a totally different thing...I was having problems with the small picture and then 2 or 3 other views and you click and let each picture come to the front in the slightly bigger box. The one you sent did reload for me but it may just be the way it is supposed to work!
