Photoshop :: Imageready Rollovers Won't Work With Firefox
Nov 22, 2005
I've been designing a webpage through Photoshop and Imageready over the past few weeks and have created rollover buttons in imageready. The problem I have is that the rollovers work in preview mode and when I preview in IE, but not in Firefox.
i have a pretty noob question, how do u make button rollovers for a website through photoshop/imageready? once my layouts are sliced, how is it possible to make rollovers? do i have to use dreamweaver? (i.e.- navigation text underlined when mouse is over it..) something basic as to that.
I've been playing with PhotoShop 7 and ImageReady to creat my rollovers. I just added the Rollover state to each of my slices and saved it Optimized as HTML and Images. I previewed it but to my horror found out that when I changed the Over State it also changed the normal state.
I went back into ImageReady to try and fix this but each time I change one the other also changes. I can highlight each but cannot change only one.
I want the normal state text to be red and the over state text to be blue.
I've sliced quite a few homepages in ImageReady before and made rollovers for buttons etc without a problem. For some reason I'm having trouble with a slightly newer version (V9) of the program on my new laptop. I make all the rollover states, select all the slices and 'save optimised' html and images. However, none of the secondary rollover images appear in the images folder, just the normal state pics, so none of the buttons roll. I can't see what I would need to change in the settings to make the program save the rollover alternative images like it used to.
I update to 6.2 version and one feature i missing is the ability to drag and drop images from Google images on firefox to Corel. Before the update works fine...after its only import the name of file like " Kgcjfdag.bmp" and not the image. But in IE works fine.
I create new file, add 1st layer, pick colors on color pallette, and try to do difference clouds or halftone pattern and i get an error message saying that nothing is selected. I click on the layer in the layers pallette to be sure that the layer is selected, and it still won't work. Is there something special i need to do? i know in older versions, you could just use the filter...
Whenever i open up photoshop or illustrator itll work fine sometimes and sometimes it wont work at all. Illustrator sometimes gives me the msg "Could not request ..." and when I click on New image it doesnt display all the options. Itll leave out the OK and CANCEL buttons and several other options sometimes. And sometimes Ill be able to create a file but i cant save... And sometimes when all this is happening I cant open any new windows on my computer and cant do any tasks at all on my pc..
other times when i think it works perfectly some of the options for different tools wont work at all...
Im trying to perform an action on a Batch. After i select the folder i want to use it on and hit save. The images start opening but when it opens the image layers are all locked and it wont perform the action....
I was working on a new file yesterday , and when I tried to switch to imageready it took too much time to do , but couldn't do So I saved the .psd file and then tried to directly open it in imageready cs2 then it said :
This file can't be directly edited in image ready ,switch to photoshop ?" and there was a button of switch !
So I thought maybe it's the file problem , So I opened a new document and tried to switch to imageready but the same problem ?
i was playing around with my myspace page and I made an animated gif for my online status. Inside firefox it displays it correctly. I can even open up the file with image ready and see that it is saved correctly. But when i open it up in IE, like 4 rows of pixles are cut off from the bottom. (On the text only.) The skull is left alone fine. Why in the heck does it do that? If i do a Preview in > Internet Explorer... it still cuts off the pixles. Any ideas?
i'm using it (and ImageReady) to create layered rollover buttons for my DVD Studio Pro project. I've figured out how to create a rollover with an "over" and a "down" state but my problem is that i want the button area to be small but the image change for each state to encompass the whole screen (basically the buttons will be a series of lights and when rolled over or pressed will light up the whole screen). so far i can only have the small area of the button change or have the whole screen as the button (which is no good because i want to have many buttons on each page). Perhaps each rollover state needs a different background?
My other problems, which may not be relevant to this forum, are:
a, I want to add a sound effect to each of the roll over states.
b, I'm tring to figure out how to have a page purely of audio tracks which play when pressed without changing the page.
I created a navigation using rollovers. I sliced it in imageready, and saved it as html and images. How do I get it on my site? Do I upload all the images then take the < body > part of the html from the rollover and paste it into my desired page? Because I tried doing that but the rollover doesn't work. When I move my mouse over it nothing happens, although in the original html document it did work.
when you drag and drop from firefox into photoshop, more than half the time you get an error message.
firefox 3.0 is coming out (beta was released), and Firefox DISABLED draging an image into photoshop as a NEW image, you can only drag images into other already open images
we NEED the ability to drag in images as new photos,

Well firefox 3.0 is coming out (beta was released), and Firefox DISABLED draging an image into photoshop as a NEW image, you can only drag images into other already open images.
When the mouse is moved over the link I get image boxes opening above and below the link but with no image in them. I have also noticed that Image ready has imported many of the graphics files with names such as Index_7-Index_14_over.gif so the file is not only the slice for Index 7 but the over gif as well. Im not sure what I am doing wrong but here is the page to show what I mean. I have redone the slices and rollover effects three times but still cannot..
Is it possible to do remote image rollovers in PS7? For example when I move the mouse over a link text or button an image on another part of the page changes.
If this is not possible in PS can I do it in deamweaver instead? I've seen a tutorial of it done in Fireworks but I dont use fireworks anymore.
I have a set of buttons and arrows all on different layers in PS. I want to make one of these arrows pop up to the left of the text upon rollover. Basic stuff.
What I'm confused about is how to do this using slices in PS and then putting it into Dreamweaver.
Do the arrows have to be on seperate slices? It seems so easy and yet my brain for some reason can't figure it out.
I have created a image map with rollovers included. I saved the PSD and optimized the image for web and it created the image and html data. All hot spots are working and the rollovers work well too.
The problem I am having is that everytime I open the page containing the image map / rollovers I get a pop up bar at the top of my screen indicating that the data or content on the page is potentialy harmeful.
Why is this? When I visit other sites the rollovers work without a problem and no warnings. Why is this only with my image ready created images and scripts? I really do not want my users to have to have this pop up each time as it is a pain and it may scare some users away and it will screw up my links and images apperance if the pop up bar is not set to always allow.

I'm using the Photoshop/Imageready CS remote rollover functionality to set up a part of a website. On this site I have series of photos that the user can select to customize a sign. There are multiple photos going on multiple locations on the sign. Right now, the remote rollovers and all the needed transparency, etc. is working just fine... but I can only "select" one of the rollovers at a time.
So for example: 1.) They select their First picture to go on the sign... they can see it there (all pretty and whatnot). 2.) They try to select their second picture... and that pops up on the sign but the first picture goes away.
I really need them to be able to see how all these different designs will look Together on the sign. They will then be using the website to order online using an HTML form. I have already looked into the Flash option, but if I can do this in Photoshop it will be SO much easier from a file manipulation stand-point (there's going to be lots of iterations on these designs).
Please tell me I'm just missing something really easy! I just need my remote rollovers to "STICK" or "STAY" once they are selected.
