Header image not working in previous version of firefox
-
Hi,
Although my header image is showing fine in the latest versio of firefox, it doesn’t seem to in the previous versions. As this blog is being assessed as part of a university project I am worried that if the assessor uses anything other than the most recent firefox they won’t see the header. Any ideas anyone?
I am using the Toolbox theme and the CSS I am using for the header is:
#branding {
position:relative;
display:block;
height:275px;
}#branding hgroup {
width:950px;
height:275px;
background:url('http://themissingcup.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/missingcupbanner.jpg') no-repeat;
margin-left:0;
z-index:0;
}#site-title a,#site-description {
text-decoration:none;
display:inline-block;
background:7px;
text-rendering:optimizeLegibility;
margin:10px 0;
padding:4px 10px;
}#site-title a {
color:#fff;
}#site-title {
position:relative;
font-size:40px;
font-weight:bold;
display:none;
}The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Since I don’t have an older version of Firefox I can’t really look, so this is a complete guess, but for a z-index declaration to work, the element has to also have a position declaration. Add position: relative to #branding hgroup . Make sure and force refresh, or clear the browser cache on the older version of Firefox.

It works fine with 6.0.1, but it’s 3.6.22 I can’t get it to work with which I think still counts as a current version. I add the suggested code, cleared the cache and refreshed the page but it still isn’t working.
Argh help!

The best I can do at the moment is run your site through browsershots.com and wait for the results. I can take anywhere from a few minutes to as much as a couple hours to get the results.
Past that, about all I can do is to tag this thread for staff attention and see if one of them can figure out what the issue is. I don’t have FF 3.6 so I can’t really be of much help past the one suggestion I had.
-
One other thought now that you have position relative is to change the z-index to 1000 and see what happens.

Browser shots is showing no header image for 3.6.x, but unless my latest suggestion right above fixes things, then you will have to wait for a staff member to see this and respond.

Thank you for your help sacredapth, unfortunately it hasn’t worked and I have no idea what else to try. hopefully some helpful staff member will come along and help.

Firefox 3.6.22 is not current. :) But let me try to find a copy to download and install and see if I can reproduce the problem. I did also try checking your site through browsershots.org, and Firefox 4, 5, and 6 look good. http://browsershots.org/http://themissingcup.com/
For reference, the mozilla.org site currently says, “Firefox 3.6.x will be maintained with security and stability updates for a short amount of time. All users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to the latest version of Firefox.”

I found a copy of 3.6.21 here: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
I set it up according to the instructions here: http://ejohn.org/blog/sexy-firefox-3/
Adding this in Firefox 3.6.21 worked for me:
#branding hgroup { display: block; } -
