Hello!
I've created some photo albums with Webstyle 4. When I click on a thumbnail, the picture pops up in a new window.
IE, Opera and Firefox 2 show up the pic, but the new Firefox 3 doesn't. The window pops up, but only a broken pic icon appears.
Is this a javascript problem from Xara?
What can I do? Please help! :)
Nobody out there who created a photo album with Webstyle 4?
If not, could somebody please create one (it's just a few clicks) and test it with the new Firefox 3? Please?
Thank you!
I have a feeling that this is all part of a trend towards obsolescence.
There have been increasing discussions regarding problems encountered with newer versions of web browsers not working with Xara WS output any more.
WS hasn't been updated in some years and neither have there been any patches that I'm aware of. Xara haven't made any comments for quite some time about their plans for this older application.
It would seen likely that Xara Xtreme5 html output is to be their modern focus.
Still - it would be well to have an official statement from Xara/Magix on this, just to clear things up.
Works OK here.
Steve, sorry didn't see your post as I was doing this :)
Shouldn't there something be like a downgrade compatibility? Or has Xara so special algorithms that newer browers don't cope with?Quote:

Xara - easy to use, but hard to handle... :(
My understanding is this, as web technology advances and languages evolve, often older syntax is removed (or changed) due to redundancy or security issues. This can of course lead to older scripts not being parsed in the same way.Quote:

This is not unusual. It requires that the authors also update their PHP scripts (unless they are working on an entirely new script).
Please show us an example, perhaps someone here might find a simple fix?Quote:
