BioHunta Report post Posted November 14, 2005 (edited) I know this is probabley a newb question, but I cannot see any jpg. pictures. All I get is a little X with a box around it. How do I fix this? http://www.pcpitstop.com/techexpress.asp?id=4H6T0WBH4NMSL96R Edited November 14, 2005 by BioHunta Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mariamt Report post Posted November 14, 2005 its to do with java. check that you have enabled your java settings in internet explorer > tools > internet options > advanced tab > scroll down and see if your java settings are enabled Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BioHunta Report post Posted November 14, 2005 (edited) Hmmmmm. No good. It did however, make it so the boxes have the little triangle, square, and circle in them when the page is loading. When the page finished loading, the shapes changed back into a X. It's weird because I have been able to see the pictures up until yesterday. I ran a quick spyware scan but it only came up with tracking cookies. And I haven't changed any settings so I have no idea why the jpg files all of a sudden won't show up.

BioHunta Report post Posted November 14, 2005 (edited) Also, when I right click on the box with an X in it and click show picture, all it does is changes it back to the 3 shapes; triangle, circle, and square.

mariamt Report post Posted November 14, 2005 (edited) can you do this test to see if its a problem with javascript. (Edit: sorry ment java applet, but test for that is on the smae page anyway) http://www.bodo.com/javame.htm It may also help to clear the cache and temp internet files. to clear java cache go to start > settings > control panel > java plug in > cache tab > clear to clear temp internet files start > run > type in cleanmgr Edited November 14, 2005 by mariamt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bruce Report post Posted November 14, 2005 Viewing .jpg images has absolutelty nothing to do with java in any way shape or form. Sounds to me like there is a broken .dll or codec in the system somewhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
