2 major issues. Amazon ad and YouTube not showing up in Firefox, okay in IE


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

I ask that you plase take a look at this link in both Firefox and IE.

http://74.53.228.178/~splatter/reviewexample.htm

 

See the difference?

 

In IE the Amazon Ad and the embedded YouTube video show up fine... but they magically disappear in Firefox. What makes it even worse that if I try to echo anything out in PHP after the Amazon ad code, it doesn't work.

 

Can someone tell me why this is? Is there a way to fix it? Thanks in advance.

 

PS. Don't get on me about the tables, I would have used CSS, the client gave it to me like this  :D

                      <p>A movie that redefined the career of Vincent Price, "The Abominable Dr. Phibes" truly took the veteran American horror actor from his Roger Corman-era Poe films into the 1970s -- and into the British movie industry as well.</p>
                      <p>Starring a who's who of Brit-film character actors at the time, from Terry Thomas ("Vault of Horror") to Virginia North ("On Her Majesty's Secret Service"). Cotten, an American, also showed up in "<a href="#" class="more">Lady Frankenstein</a>".</p>
                      <p>Director Fuest brings an enormous sense of art-deco style and grand guingol humor to the affair, and this film truly set the stage for what many consider Price's finest work -- including Price himself -- "<a href="#" class="more">Theater of Blood</a>", a movie clearly inspired by "Phibes," but which actually succeeds in outdoing it.</p>
                      <p>After a series of bizarre, freak accident-style murders of doctors baffles Scotland Yard, an investigator (Peter Trout) learns that the killings are all seem to be based on the 10 Biblical plagues that befell Egypt. With the help of an American doctor (Cotten) who seems linked to the killings, investigators realize the murders are related to the death of a Virginia Phibes. All the doctor victims happened to work on her case -- and failed to save her.</p>
                      <p>Her late husband, Dr. Phibes (Price), it turns out is actually alive, or at least appears to be. He can only communicate verbally when a wire is plugged into his vocal chords. He also eats through a tube in his neck. HIs only companion is his mute, beautiful, ultra-sexy and super fashionably dressed assistant Vulvana (North). As it turns out, Phibes is dead, but has managed to resurrect himself to exttract revenge on the doctors who negligenly failed to save the life of his wife.</p>
                      <p>No matter what the police do to try to stop Phibes, he seems to get through their defenses, killing the doctors one by one, until finally Cotten is the only one left. <br>

Actually, they don't show for me using Firefox. For me at least, the reason is simple: I am using AdBlock Plus. From looking at the list of blockable objects, it seems to be (understandably) blocking these 2:
