    Posting photos using Apple Computers

    I felt this important enough to start another thread!

    I found that on my Apple Macintosh using Microsoft Internet Explorer for mac in the gallery window there is no "gallery links" on the menue bar and also none of the links on the menue bar have pull down menues.

    But , using Apple's Safari Web browser all the menue items are there with their pull down menues!!

    I'm finally able to post pictures to our redesigned site!

    Glad the problem is solved!

    Make sure on ANY browser, that you have JAVA enabled and that it supports JAVA script. The dropdown menus are JAVA script (DHTML), if your browser doesn't support it, UPGRADE! That way you will be able to enjoy all of the "high tech" features of the new design.

    Switched to Apple

    Hi Dave: See you are a Apple fan. After 15 years of fighting Windows-Viruses & Spyware & attempted identity theft , I switched from PC to a Apple Powerbook G4 1.5- 15 inch.

    Thumbs up

    I too am an OSX fan and there are sites (not just this one) that require Safari to work right. And then there are others that I have to use IE for - strange. Either one though is working for me on a dual 1gig G4 running 10.3.8

    Welcome aboard Bob, hollar if you have an questions you can't figure out - I've been an Apple guy since using my first one running lights for Kenny Loggins in 1990 - I also worked for Apple for over 8 yrs.

    I just got my 12" G4 PB back from service (bad modem) and it only took 3 days - they send you a custom box over nite, drop the copmuter in and hand back to the courier and it's back to you in no time! Waaaay too slick a process....

    I just love my apples...if someone gave me a pc (piece of crap!) I'd use it as a door stopper!

    I am the proud owner of the original 15" G3 titanium powerbook(office computer now) a 17" G4 alum powerbook(home computer) and a 12" G4 alum powerbook(my traveling computer)!!!!
    and 2 ipods...love this S__T!!!!!

    To me the VX is designed like the apples...very well done and way ahead of their time!!

    I am most happy using my 1.2 GHz upgraded Cube which replaced my TAM (Which I still have). Apple since my 128k Mac in 1984.

    Safari

    If you enable the debug menu in Safari, you can use a user agent to make sites think that you are using a supported browser.

    In OSX you quit Safari and launch terminal (applications/utilities). At the prompt, type defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu 1 and hit return. When you launch Safari, you will see the Debug menu next to Help. Just select User Agent and then whatever browser you want.

    This was a tip in the latest issue of MacAddict.

    Ahhh, the Mac guys speak up! I'm a die-hard Mac fan as well. I'm lucky enough to work as a Macintosh Server/Software Support Specialist for a large school district. I get to work on Macs all day long and then come home to my new Power Mac G5 2.5 GHz and 20" Cinema Display (not to mention my Cube, my 12" PowerBook, my 20 GB 4G iPod, and my iPod Shuffle). My wife also has a 12" PowerBook and my daughter has an iMac. We're all wireless and enjoying life with OS X. OK, it's a sickness but what a way to go!

    Long live the Mac!

    Internet Explorer for OSX is no longer being updated by Microsoft. The IE site says they are concentrating on other Mac products.
