Image Not Displaying for Some Firefox Users

adamwolf1965

On the page http://www.franklincar.org/index.html (which I did not
build), some Firefox users are reporting that the "Franklin Vintage
Photo Book" image towards the middle of the page (right below the
maroon "Please Note" text) is not displaying for them.

I've viewed the page in Firefox 2 on both Mac and PC but have been
unable to duplicate the error.

Thanks in advance.

It is almost certainly an ad blocker that is doing this. I did
duplicate this in my Safari which has a toggleable ad blocker and
it appears on disabling the blocker.

Look carefully at things like the name of the folder in which it
exist on the server, the name of the pic file itself, look at the
name of the html file it is going to... what ad blockers pick up
on depends on the ad blockers of course. I had a very puzzling
case on a commercial site I had a few weeks back. Some pictures
in one small section were not appearing in my Safari. I traced
the prob to the blocker and eventually to the name of the folder
in which the pics and html files were, called "promo"! My ad
blocker in Safari is an add on and not very sophisticated, it has
room for riules to be made more complex, (to be fair to the
developer).

Yes, well that pretty well is it then (I was rushing out and did
not look at OP's code). It is easy for OP to test if he is not
convinced already: duplicate the image and rename to something
neutral, duplicate the html file it sits in and rename, put them
in the same folders and tell the people complaining to now view
the renamed page. I suggest this procedure in case it is a live
site - this disturbs it not at all. Also, in case the ad blocker
is very smart, and is looking at the link (it was a link too,
no?) this is easy to discover by sending it (on the test page) to
something as simple as a page with nothing much on it and named
innocuously.

It was an ad blocker - I renamed the image, and that did the trick.
Thanks very much.
