  • I don't have any option 'Open with' for downloads

    I click on a file in a Web site to open it, but the box pop up no not the option "open with...". ", only the save option. The file type is a text document with the extension ".prg" associated with in my Windows Folder Options to open with Wordpad. Breast of Firefox Tools/Options/Applications, this file type does not appear, so I can't change it. I've read elsewhere where it is blamed on the MIME type in the HTML header, but Microsoft Internet Explorer gets it right every time, only Firefox does not recognize the file type.

  • Problems with the page in Internet Explorer 7 times layouts

    Hello

    I created this site in Dreamweaver CS6 using webfonts.

    http://www.fjgpharma.com/index.html

    It's fine on all browsers except IE 7 , where the type on the pages that follow is not displayed correctly:

    • Index - blue sub-heading is divided on two lines when it should be on a

    • About - 'technical management' appears as a sort of link

    • Services - dashes are misaligned

    I've already added the following code:

    <!-[if lt IE 9] >

    " < script src =" http://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/HTML5.js "> < / script > .

    <! [endif]-->

    Can anyone offer me any advice on how can I fix?

    Thank you!

    By 'technical management' is displayed as a link, I'm guessing that you have some kind of Malware or downloaded Junkware that infect your version of IE7. There is no link in the code, so it should not appear as a link in any version of any browser.

    You can run an anti-virus/malware program and see if it picks up anything.

    Are you sure you still want to support IE7?

    According to everything I've seen, somewhere in between. 5% and 1% of all users have installed IE7.

    Now with Windows XP "death Date" set for April 8 next year, IE8 should start to fall dramatically (currently at about 6%) current XP users are forced to upgrade or be subject to unpatched issues after this date.

  • Put links to video files in web pages - want option 'Open with' when the viewer clicks on the links.

    If I go to a video file that is stored in my computer, for example xyz.mp4 and right click on it, one of the options is 'Open with' and several options for example QuickTime player, RealPlayer are presented for me to choose. But when I add the file to a web page and create a link to it for example http://sillyvideos.com/xyz.mp4 and then I right click on this link (on the web page) in my Firefox browser, I don't get the option 'open with '. My question is: is it possible to put a link to a video in a web page, so I or other viewers can click right on it and benefit from the option 'open with' (so we can choose the drive to open it, without having to download first in our computers)?

    Normally what happens, is that the server sends the content with one or more headers that dictate what Firefox did with the video.

    For example, if the content is sent with a header that Firefox can play internally, then Firefox can open the video in a tab and use a built-in player. You can see with MP3s when the server says that it is "audio/mpeg" content. However, if the server sends a content type that a capable of handling plugin, Firefox can attempt this plugin.

    Normally Firefox will assume that the content is meant to be displayed in the browser, unless it is an unknown type or has a content-disposition header set to "attachment". In these cases, Firefox usually has open/save/Cancel dialog box.

    I don't know what kinds of choices you want to offer visitors to your site, but if you thought giving them a choice of the players external , sending to content-disposition: attachment to make appear the probably the most logical open/save/Cancel dialog box. With smaller files such as JPEG and PDF, I did it with a script on the server side (for example, a PHP script). I don't know if the script would work with multimedia files.

    If you want to provide more choices, you might need the buttons or links in the page.

    This example applies to a PDF file, but the same idea applies to the image files and it can work with files more mainstream media. (In this case, you change the script to specify the correct content type.)

    Implementation of the PHP approach, you follow these steps. This assumes that your server supports PHP (most do so) and that your Web host allows you to download PHP files.

    (1) save the following as getpdf.php file

    http://www.jeffersonscher.com/RES/getpdf.php.txt

    (2) using a FTP software or your server download function, copy getpdf.php into the same folder as your PDF file

    (3) test with your link. In the address bar, or in an e-mail, insert the following text before the name of the PDF file:

    getpdf.php?f=
    

    Thus, for example, this direct link to the PDF:

    http://www.jeffersonscher.com/RES/Mixed_Content_Blocking.PDF

    would become this link to the PHP file:

    http://www.jeffersonscher.com/RES/getpdf.php? f =Mixed_Content_Blocking.pdf

  • Start button on the taskbar, while opening with the mouse, but works using the touch screen does not

    Windows icon on the taskbar does not bring up start page using the mouse, but will Touch. Clickable after the restart, but only for a couple of times?

    Hello

    Please contact Microsoft Community. I understand that start button on the taskbar does not not at the opening with the mouse, it works but when touch use. I've surely you will help solve this problem.

    To better understand the issue, I would need more information on your side.

    1. The problem occurs when you use another mouse?
    2. What is the number and the model of the computer and the mouse?
    3. Did you the latest changes on the computer before this problem?

    This problem might have occurred because of these reasons:

    1. Missing updates of Windows and the device driver updates.
    2. Conflict between third-party applications.
    3. Corrupt system files.

    Try the steps listed here and see if it helps:

    Method 1:

    If the problem does not occur when you use another mouse, I suggest you to download and install all Windows Update available including optional updates. You can also install the last mouse driver\Software from mouse manufacturer website and check if it helps.

    Method 2:
    If the problem occurs when you use a different mouse, I suggest to start the computer using safe mode and check if the problem occurs or not. If this isn't the case, I suggest you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

    Step 1:
    Start the computer in Mode safe. At the start of the computer Mode safe with the minimum set of drivers and files.

    Start settings for Windows (including safe mode)
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows-8/Windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode

    Step 2:
    If the issue happen not in Mode without failure, perform a clean boot and check. Setting the system in a clean boot state will help you determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135/en-us

    Note: After the clean boot troubleshooting steps, see the "How to reset the computer to start as usual after a clean boot troubleshooting" section in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

    Method 3:

    If the problem persists, I suggest you perform the Scan SFC (System File Checker) and check if it helps. SFC scan will search the system files corrupted on the computer and replace them.

    Use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7 system files

  • Firefox always opens with the tab 'Search', even if I don't want. How can I stop this?

    When I open Firefox, it normally opens to my home page. But it opens with the tab 'Search', although I don't want that. How to prevent this?

    Since the search offered appointment on your homepage page chosen.

  • How can I make my files open with the section 'files' (on the left) already enabled (in Windows Explorer)?

    I'm on Windows XP with Service Pack 4.  The "show common tasks in folders" checked in folder options and my windows Explorer opens with the "common tasks" bar on the left side.  I have to click on 'files' (in the top tool bar) to get my files to display on the left.  If I click on "use Windows classic folders" instead of "Show common tasks in folders" my explore opens with no left bar at all and I still click on 'files' to have folders appear in the position of the left side bar.  Can I solve this case everytime I open windows Explorer opens on the side bar of folders on the left and content on the right?  If Yes, where and how do the default every time I open windows Explorer?  Thanks for any help, that all the world can offer.

    Thank you very much.  This has not only had what I wanted, but also extend this ability to any file folder I click on.  What I was really doing was: I saved a link to a set of "my computer" window microsoft explore my d: drive (my data partition) so it automatically goes to what I look at in explore more often rather than having open 'my computer' and go through several steps to get to the open D: partition.  But I still had to push the button of "folders" at the top of the page to open the view in the left bar of my directories - every time.  With your help my link now opens windows Explorer set up exactly the way I want every time!  You have saved me from countless steps repetative in the future for every time I open windows Explorer.

    Thank you once again,
