I am not quite sure why "\" is used in the image path after the album name instead of "/". Internet Explorer turns it into / so that the request which is sent for the server does not contain \. However Firefox does not do that and that causes some problems, for example if I use URLSCAN or some other security software on IIS to prevent illegal characters in the URL, including "\", then the images are not shown. I have used the latest version and still the problem is there. I think I can fix that and rebuild the PA, but I rather have an authentic PA from Scott.

Thank you and sorry if this has been discuessed before, my search didn't show anything.

On which screen is this causing a problem? I use firefox a bit and haven't had a problem yet, can you provide the steps to reproduce the issue.

Scott:

Thanks for your reply. It happens in the slideshow, i.e when you click on a picture to see the larger picture. For example look at the source of the following page (I found it through the other thread in this forum) and you will see \ in the image path. I think it does not happen if you choose to see the pictures in pop-up format. http://www.victorianchapel.com/PhotoGallery/tabid/55/ctl/SlideShow/mid/370/ItemID/5/Default.aspx

The problem is not FireFox per se. The problem is that FireFox unlike IE does not convert \ in urls to / and sends a request to the server with \. Some IIS web servers, for example my own test computer, block invalid characters in the url such as \ using URLSCAN and I think IIS 6 has these features built-in, not sure though.

Thanks
