sqlnoob Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Hi all, I have a problem with my ajax script. It works fine in IE7 and IE8, but somehow fails in FF3. It supposed to fetch the words "no news" from this page: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Roma</TITLE> <META NAME="description" CONTENT="ajax process"> <META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="ajax process"> </HEAD> <BODY> <?php //DATABASE CONNECTION VARIABLES $myserver ="myserver"; $myname = "myname"; $mypassword = "mypassword"; /*SQL CONNECTION*/ $con = mysql_connect("$myserver","$myname","$mypassword"); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } else { $mydb ="shugonl"; //DATABASE SELECTION $selector = mysql_select_db($mydb, $con); if (!$selector) { die('Could not select database: ' . mysql_error()); } else { /*COUNTING NEWS*/ $cresultnews = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) AS newscount FROM news"); $crownews = mysql_fetch_array($cresultnews); $newsbank = $crownews[newscount]; if ($newsbank <1) { $response = "No news"; } else { /*FETCHING NEWS*/ $mresultnews = mysql_query("SELECT MAX(newsID) AS latest FROM news WHERE newscat ='1'"); $mrownews = mysql_fetch_array($mresultnews); $newsid = $mrownews[latest]; $resultnews = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM news WHERE newsID ='$newsid'"); $rownews = mysql_fetch_array($resultnews); $newstitle = $rownews['newstitle']; $newsdate = $rownews['newsdate']; $response ="<I>".$newsdate."</I> ".$newstitle; } //END DATABASE SELECTOR } } /*output response*/ echo $response; mysql_close($con); ?> </BODY> </HTML> and then display the words "no news" at this page: http://www.shugo.nl/rome/index.htm when you hover your mouse over the "News" head. Like I said it works fine with IE, but fails with FF. Apparently this is something that FF doesn't support, or I am doing something wrong. Does anyone have a solution to my problem? If so please share your solution with me. thanks again for your help Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/219626-firefox-doesnt-display-text-in-div/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqlnoob Posted November 23, 2010 Author Share Posted November 23, 2010 uhm sorry the title is a bit misleading I think, it supposed to display it in a <P> namely: <P id="ticker" class="ticker"></P> my apologies for that but i also tried it with just DIV on another page and it's not working in FF there either... so again what am I doing wrong? and what work around method is there to solve this problem? (preferable an easy and simple solution as unlike php, javascript is not really my strength) I don't want to use textfields as that would look ugly, but there has got to be something, right? I mean support of features in FF can't be really that bad, right?
