Graphics doesn't display

[vittigo]

Hi all.

I've got following problem. I observed that when my webpage is first time opened in Firefox on a new computer browser doesn;t displays graphics i used in list items for unordered lists. Other graphics is displayed normally. After refreshing the page graphics appears in lists, and after it gets cached, problem doesn't longer exists.

What causes it?? and what is a solution??

Thanks in advance

Without a link or the source code it would be difficult to troubleshoot problems like this.

OW MY EYES, that CSS is a mess, but you're using gif's, i dunno how relavent that is but i heard that gifs are no nos in web design, FF seems to be alot stricter then IE when it comes to displaying things (the bullets load fine tyhe first time in IE) try converting the to JPGs

Where on Earth did you hear that nonsense? While GIFs are less useful (only 256 colours minus one for transparency, and no alpha transparency support) and often larger in filesize than alternatives such as PNG, there are still uses for which they are the best choice (animation, for example, or in cases where gamma-correction may mess up the web page's style). Now that patents on GIFs have expired in all countries (as far as we're aware), there's no longer a reason to avoid them.

I was unable to reproduce the problem [Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061024 BonEcho/2.0].

Hi Twey!!
It's a good news you wasn't able to reproduce problem. As long as i tested it i observed it for Firefox 1.5.0.x PL only. So maybe it's a browser bug?? During the first opening the page pictures get cached but aren't display. Second time everything is all right. Strange thing.

Possibly so. Try in Fx2 and see if you experience the same issue.
