+eikenboom Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 When running Firefox, the photographs do not show, both on the main page for a waymark and on the page where I should be seeing the gallery. The photos also do show on a listing of waymarks. This happens ONLY on Firefox (no problems on IE) and ONLY on Waymarking.com. I have no problems with geocaching.com or any other website (as far as I know). This has been going on for a few weeks now. I have cleared the cache and the cookies, restarted Firefox and Windows and reinstalled Firefox (from 25.0.1 to 26.0), all to no avail. HELP PLEASE I mentioned this in a post in another thread but since there has been no reaction, I decided to start a new thread. Quote Link to comment
+fi67 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I usually work with Firefox on different computers and have never experienced this behavior. It's not the program, that's all I can say. Not very helpful, I know Quote Link to comment

+Kalkendotters Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 You might have clicked on the 'block images form img.Groundspeak.com' Check on a Waymarking page the 'page-info' on the 'media'-tab There should be a list of all pictures on the page, including some form img.Groundspeak.com On it is also an 'block all pictures from xxx' checkbox. Checkbox should be off. Quote Link to comment

Checkbox should be off. Bock images is not selected. If I browse through the images in Page Info | Media, all images show in the preview except jpg and png (which are the ones from img.Groundspeak.com). However when I move over them a second time, they do show in the preview. But still nothing in the Waymarking pages. Weirder and weirder... Edited December 12, 2013 by eikenboom Quote Link to comment
+eikenboom Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 I now know what happened. I an running an ad blocker and because these pictures are loaded from another site than the one we are on, they are regarded to be ads and are blocked. I have added an exception rule and everything now seems fine again. Quote Link to comment
+MountainWoods Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 It's always frustrating when the darn computer does what it was told rather than what you meant. (I have no problem saying that 'cause I'm a software architect, and I haven't been able to find an answer to that.) Quote Link to comment
