BackColor attribute in HyperLink doesn't work in Firefox

Steve Ford

I have a datagrid that contains the following template column:

<ItemTemplate >
<asp:HyperLin k ID="partyColour " Runat="server" BackColor='<%#
System.Drawing. Color.FromName( DataBinder.Eval (Container.Data Item,
"PartyColour"). ToString()) %>' NavigateUrl='<% # Request.Applica tionPath +
"/Party.aspx?part yID=" + DataBinder.Eval (Container.Data Item,
"Party").ToStri ng() %>'>
<asp:Image Runat="server" ImageUrl="../images/Pixel.gif" Height="20"
Width="20" BorderWidth="1" BorderColor="#0 00000" />
</asp:HyperLink>
</ItemTemplate>

This is intended to display a 20 x 20 pixel block of colour (as specified by
the PartyColour column in the bound dataset) . It works fine in IE but
neither the colour nor the border appear when viewed using Mozilla Firefox.
When comparing the IE and Firefox page source side by side, the FF source
contains no style information at all for this column. Any ideas how to
resolve this problem?

Many thanks in advance.

you need an update browsercaps file for aps.net to output style command for
any browser other then IE. google this newgroup for browsercap to find an
update.

HyperLink control vs. Firefox

by: Arthur Dent | last post by:

Hello all.... i am REally confused by something... I have a hyperlink control on my page, and for the NavigateUrl property, i have it set to "~/" in the property window (without the quotes). Now, in IE this works beautifully, and the hyperlink redirects you to the root of the web application. In Firefox however it redirects you simply to the page you are currently on. If you mouse over the link, the url that comes up in the status bar is...

Title attribute and firefox with forced new lines

by: Leo Smith | last post by:

Is there a way for the title attribute (or tooltip) in firefox to force a new line in the text. In IE I can use the old fall back of '\n', but all variations on the normal C++ carriage returns or even the a br tag doesn't work. Can this be done in firefox or is there a work around? I am using the lastest firefox so I don't know. Thanks, Leo

Strange behaviour in ie7. A collegue of mine put several images into a page using JCE in Joomla. JCE have the option to align these images and he left aligned every single one - to create a string of images. In Firefox these img-elements breaked when then reached the border of the sorrounding div-element, i ie7 they continued. I removed the align- attribute and everything looking the same in both browsers. I haven't tested in ie6.

HyperLink Bug

by: tshad | last post by:

I had posted this problem earlier and just noticed that the Hyperlink is the problem. Apparently, it doesn't figure out the path correctly. It uses the path of the file it is in, even if it is a control. I have 2 files "displayCompanyJobs.aspx" and "displayCompanyOverview.aspx" which are in both the folder "/jobseeker/" and "/employer/". I have a user control "displayCompanyJobs.ascx" that is in my /applicant/
