Safari problems – loads 1st time, and not the second..

Hi Sue,

Try to use a more recent e2photo.js file. You can download it I think from the sticky thread at the top of this forum.

Hi there, I sent this post sometime ago, and hadn’t checked in to see if there was a response, but there doesn’t seem to be from E2. Could you help me with this? Thank you. Sue

Thank you for all your help previously. The site is working well except in Safari on a Mac, which is unfortunately what the client uses to view the site. The gallery loads up the first time and works perfectly, but if you navigate away and then return to the page the first large image doesn’t load, and the arrows on the thumbnail bar disappear meaning the other images can’t be accessed.
The link to the site is http://www.grizelda.net/gallery/index.php , there are three galleries on the site, and the same problem happens with them all.
Thank you kindly,
Sue

Hi there, Thank you for your reply about the bug in Safari. I wonder if you were able to find a fix for the old software or perhaps you’ve finished working on the new version? It is a great piece of software and lots of people have commented how well it works, but there’s a bit of confusion from those safari users. I’m just about to do another site and to be honest your gallery software seems to be one of the best out there to enable the strip of thumbnails under the main image. You’d make me a very happy woman if you could find a fix for the bug in Safari or if it doesn’t exist in the new version.
All the best,
Sue

I tried this and it doesn’t work in Firefox. Has anyone fixed this problem in the free version? Also, it loads the remaining pics very slowly when you click on them. Any suggestions on that one too?

I solved it as follows:
1. Be a function:

<?php
function get_user_browser()
{
$u_agent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
$ub = ”;
if(preg_match(‘/MSIE/i’,$u_agent))
{ $ub = “ie”; }
elseif(preg_match(‘/Firefox/i’,$u_agent))
{ $ub = “firefox”; }
elseif(preg_match(‘/Chrome/i’,$u_agent))
{ $ub = “chrome”; }
elseif(preg_match(‘/Safari/i’,$u_agent))
{ $ub = “safari”; }
elseif(preg_match(‘/Flock/i’,$u_agent))
{ $ub = “flock”; }
elseif(preg_match(‘/Opera/i’,$u_agent))
{ $ub = “opera”; }
return $ub;
}
?>

2. The getfirstimage () function after the following line of code:

<?php
getfirstimage($gallerypathuj, “tempgallery”,$autoheight, $image_height);
$aktual_browser = get_user_browser();
if ( ($aktual_browser === ‘chrome’) || ($aktual_browser === ‘safari’) )
{
echo ‘<script type=”text/javascript”>initGallery( tempgallery, tempgallery.length, tempgallery[0][8],’.
‘ tempgallery[0][1], tempgallery[0][2], 0 );</script>’;
}
?>

Good luck to the test
