Dear Mr. York,

First of all, thanks for the wonderfull work delivered and the clear syntax.
Question :
I develop on a Windows platform , but host my sites on a Linux server. I used the ie7-standard-p.js for the multi-column layout and it works like a charm under Windows. When posting my site on the Linux server it comes back with a 404-Page not found. Do you have any idea how to resolve this ?
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

With best wishes,
Wim Paulussen

Hi Wim,

404 Not found generally means just that - Not found. Linux is case sensitive. Are you sure you've written URLs referencing your resources correctly i.e. case of the letters is matched exactly?

If you have a URL to where you've uploaded the project, I might be able to help you troubleshoot.



Regards,
Rich

Hi,

Thanks for the replies.
Forgot to mention that it works well with Firefox. Url is as follows :
http://www.asgc.be/sion/index.html (this works fine). Click on the leftmost language flag and you will see that the website comes up and then generates a 404 error.

To AGS,

I picked up that the ie7 script creates its own urls and that this effect causes my problem. It should not work in Firefox either, or am I missing something ?

Thanks for any help in advance.

With best wishes,
Wim

The IE7 script doesn't work in Firefox, but you should still include it using conditional comments so that other browsers don't even see the script. It doesn't offer any functionality for other browsers anyway, since it is a CSS compliance patch for IE6 that is intended to bring IE6 up to the same level of CSS compatibility as is found in other browsers.

I've tried to load up IE7's test page to no avail. Can you please send me a link to the test.html file, which should be present in the IE7 install directory.

A listing of that directory should look something like this:

As far as I understand the problem is caused by ie7-load.htc file. It is the file which raises 404 error. The reason is probably that Apache Web server doesn't have correct MIME type mapped to .htc files.
There is a link to Microsoft article regarding this subject and configuration needed for Apache server:

Thanks guys,

It works now. I included all the files (initially only installed te ie7-standard-p.js script). The result can be viewed on the abovementioned link.

I will do the necessary to upload the english text so you can start booking your holidays in Saint Tropez ...

With best wishes,

Looks like I am having the same problem with the IE script on the Linux server. I have double and triple checked my coding putting the contents under the root of the domain as well as a copy under the directory where the project resides. The bottom status bar of IE shows the files are loading but the iframe does not display.

One note: my hosting provider is shared so I have no ability to restart APACHE. I have added the meta type for the htc file but with no restart am I "dead in the water"? Other than move to Windows hosting are there any other suggestions?

Thanks!

This was a coding issue with a misplaced space. Always best to use the code from the CD to verify! This helped locate the error. All is fine now.

Weird on Linux has 90% of all servers, should work either way, check the paths
