I have a page that is basically created by a DOM script that generates a table of images (regular img elements) from several webcams (helps a friend with a pet, and my HTML / DOM is a bit rusty).
It works fine in FF3 or Chrome, but not in IE7. In fact, the entire table is not visible in IE (but the background color of the body is applied).
If you look at the page in IE, there are no script errors, the CSS seems to be applied in order, and the DOM seems to display all the cells and rows in the table that are all generated.
Using the IE Developer toolbar, when you run the “Image” report, images are even displayed (even if they are not displayed in the table and there is no data on the table on the page, as shown in the figure), even the text in the cells isn’t rendered)
When looking at img elements and using the trace style function, at one time I saw that all img elements had a display: none, and he said inline style, but nothing happens in my code or style sheet. This problem seems to have disappeared when I started adding explicit records for each element of the table in my stylesheet.
Where to begin?
body { background-color : gray ; color : white ; margin : 0 ; font-family : Verdana, "lucida console", arial, sans-serif ; }
#CameraPreviewParent { text-align : center ; width : 100% ; }
#CameraTable { text-align : center ; width : 100% ; }
#CameraLiveParent { text-align : center ; margin : 50px ; }
#CameraLiveHeading { color : white ; }
td.CameraCell { text-align : center ; }
img.CameraImage { border : none ; }
a:link, a:visited, a:active, a:hover { text-decoration : none ; color : inherit ; }
table#CameraTable { color : white ; background-color : gray ; }
td.CameraCell { color : white ; background-color : gray ; }
Deleting a style sheet has no effect.
Here is the page code after generation (I apologize for formatting from the DOM toolbar - I tried to insert some line feeds to make reading easier):
