Internet Explorer Missing Images "x"
Internet Explorer Missing Images "x"
(OP)
Some of my workstations have a problem displaying images in Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1. A red "x" is displayed in the upper right hand corner of the image in a small box with a white backgroud. I have updated to the lastest Service Pack and security patches from MS and the problem perist on the five workstations.
Five have the problem and the other 20 do not. The same Norton Client Security policy is used for all workstations.
The OS on all systems is Windows XP Pro, 1.8 -2.4 GHz, 512 MB, lots od HHD space remaining on each system.
Thanks for your suggestions.

Even hitting refresh on the same page will often result in different gifs not displaying with respect to page before refreshing.
Can anyone offer new suggestions other than complete reinstall?
RE: Internet Explorer Missing Images "x"
Open the registry and - browse to: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\PROTOCOLS\Name-Space Handler\
- If 'http', 'https' and 'ftp' exist, then delete the keys (leave the 'mk' key)
Restart PC for changes to take effect.
RE: Internet Explorer Missing Images "x"
Thanks for the reply - I looked at the registry and I only have one entry for Name space handler called "mk", nothing else. Under Protocols/handler I do have http, https though. Could that be the problem?
This is really annoying - seems I spend my life either deleting spam or clicking "show picture"
RE: Internet Explorer Missing Images "x"
As described in the other posts, this one works for me every time. But I have to do it after almost every Windows Update ...
RE: Internet Explorer Missing Images "x"
I noticed a few references to software that stops ad popups etc. On looking back, I think my problem firt started after installing Google's Toolbar to stop ads etc. I've no idea how to uninstall it. Will try documented fix(es) and report back.
RE: Internet Explorer Missing Images "x"
1. Go to - View - encoding - select "western european (windows)" repair ie if not sticking
2. Check that Show Pictures has not been disabled:
On the Tools menu, click Internet Options\Advanced - scroll down to Multimedia and
tick " Show Pictures"
untick "show image placeholders"
Click OK .
3. Restore Default Associations for Graphics File Types :
Go to Folder Options/File Types, and make sure that the following file types are associated by default with Microsoft Internet Explorer (Iexplore.exe):
ART image (.art)
GIF image (.gfa, .gif)
JPEG image (.jfif, .jpe, .jpeg, .jpg)
4. Install the latest version of "Microsoft Virtual Machine"
http://ftp.uni-stuttgart.de/pub/systems/...
5. It could be caused by your firewall
6. If some of the images are on adverts and you have "spyblocker" installed - this will not only block some ad's but also show a red X instead of a picture
7. Of course it could be that the pictures are no longer on the website - could you give an example of website and picture which is not working for you ?
8." cleaning " your computer may also clear this problem so....
delete your temporary files.....your temporary internet files.....and clear your ie history
9. Check out this Microsoft link :-

10. (Thanks to Rollin' Rog) See this Norton link regarding NIS

Also try disabling the "privacy" feature, we've seen that cause problems as well...

Wahoo, red x's gone (for now). I've got IE 6 with Windows 98SE. I just "repaired IE" (using Add/remove program) and I'm not getting red x's. It was this step that seemed to help:
1. Go to - View - encoding - select "western european (windows)" repair ie if not sticking
But: A few days ago, I updated to the latest version of java, and that also seemed to fix red x problems for a while - but then red x's reappeared, and so now I'm hoping the IE repair job fixed the problem...
HUGE THANKS

"Basically, I followed the instructions in the Microsoft Bulletin 283807 you referenced above to change the code table specified in my registry EXCEPT.... Instead of specifying the c_28591.nls as the default, I changed the default to c_1252.nls. After rebooting, the problem was history."
And I'm hoping hoping hoping it's history for me, too

"Some of images were missing from the page"
The more detailed symptoms were:
- I'm using IE 6.0 on XP Prof
- When I clicked "Show picture" on a missing image it appeared
- Refreshing the page sometimes solved the problem somtimes didn't
- Not always the same images were missing
- Generally this behavior appeared with small-sized images like "spacer.gif". Size means file size and not image dimension.
- Tipicaly appeared with very fast servers or localhost.
- It was somehow affected by using VPN. (Don't exactly know how, but it seemed worse when using the VPN)
- I have tried all the tips posted before (including reinstalling IE)
The story and the solution:
Once, I have changed the registry to allow more that 2 simultanous connections to the same server.
It can be set using these two registry entries:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\MaxConnectionsPerServer
and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server
I have set those to 10. The setting worked. I could really start 10 downloads the same time from IE, but...
Today I realized that I payed a high price for those simultanous downloads. This caused the the red x-es for me.
And took a whole day to find the solution.
I think this is an IE bug with fast servers, small files and higher number of download connections.
So give it a try and set the value of these reg. entries back to 1 or 2:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\MaxConnectionsPerServer
and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server
If you didn't touch these settings and still have the mysterious red-x problem: I wish you good luck!

The registry has a tree-structure like any filesystem.
To delete a value just select it and press the Del-button.
To edit a value rightclick and choose "Change".
Be sure not to change the wrong things, because this could screw up your system.
Peace,

More importantly, do a quick search and learn how to back up your registry before you do in and start hacking, especially if you're not familiar with the process.

Download Mozilla
Install Mozilla
go to mozdev.org
install multizilla
Trust me, it's an awesome browser. It has none of the things I hated about Netscrap. And I'm a big fan of Microsoft too.
As for the Red X. There is one sure way to fix it, however it's on the server side. If the webpage preloads the images (using Javascript) then the Red Xs never show up.
Of course this porbably won't help unless it's one page that you have access to that's bothing you.
RE: Internet Explorer Missing Images "x"
Insert the following code into your HEAD tag. Be sure to use the correct name and path for your image!
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE = JAVASCRIPT>
if (document.images)
{
img1 = new Image();
img2 = new Image();
img1.src = "imageName1.gif";
img2.src = "imageName2.gif"
}
</SCRIPT>
