iframes

TwistsAndTurns

When i try access some sites (using windows xp) a window pops up telling me that that my browser does not support iframes! I downloaded a patch from microsoft and it said everything was ok and it did not need to install the patch. maybe some setting are wrong on my computer or something. Iframes seem to not allow some pics and text appear. One of the sites in question is o2.ie. Anybody ony tips.

what sites ?

Are you using IE6 or a previous version ?

Anyone remember a site that tells you what what version your browser reports ?

In IE empty the cache - solves a good few strange problems.
Other settings like security leave alone unless you have info that confirms that that is the problem.

I don't think IE can change the browser identity it sends
You could try FireFox with the user agent switcher extension to see if it's a web at fault. Opera can do something similar.

IE has supported IFRAMEs since v4!

Thanks for the reply Capt'n Midnight.

The 2 sites are www.o2.ie & www.ardkeen.ie.

The o2 site tells me that my browser does not support Iframes so i was unable to regeister my mobile phone details.

The ardkeen site will not show anything on the cover page just the search box. All the rest of the site I can get around.

I downloaded firefox and I still have the same problem.

The computer is only 14 months old and I not changed any security settings.

Are you running any ad blockers or other plugins? Have you checked your system for spyware with Ad-aware, Spybot S&D and MS Antispyware? That's where I'd start.

Thanks for reply Ken,

I disabled popup blocker and restarted computer but no joy with www.o2.ie site. I am running microsoft antiSpyware but i have had this problem before and after I installed this. I think Ill just have to live with this problem, again thanks all for taking the time for replying.
