Question

Dreamweaver and server files display differently

I had an older website that used Flash. I used Flash to pan and zoom a map. I want to replace that code with Zoomify.

 

I make all the necessary changes on my computer and using the preview button the resulting page looks great. I've tried this with Chrome, Firefox and IE.

 

I upload the files to the server. When I display the webpage that contains the map, everything displays except the map. That area is blank. I do not get an error message, e.g. 404 file not found.

 

I then went to the html file on my computer, right clicked, and said to open with Firefox. The page opens but the map is not shown. Everything else looks good. No errors displayed.

 

I tried clearing the cache but that did not help.

 

The perplexing thing is that I don't get any errors like 404 can't find file.

 

Do you have any suggestions as to what I might try?

Without seeing the page in question it's very hard to say what could be happening.

Though, it does sound a lot like you might have mixed http and https elements on the same page. Insecure content will sometimes fail to load, or give any error, when mixed into a secure page.

Let me be clear, the issue is why does it display fine in Dreamweaver but only when displayed in Dreamweaver.
