Having trouble with "imageflow" in Internet Explorer - loads slowly in other browsers

Currently, I am utilizing a javascript script known as ImageFlow. While it operates smoothly in browsers like Firefox and Chrome, it experiences significant lags and hangs.

Unfortunately, when attempting to load it on Internet Explorer (versions 9, 8, 7), the script does not load at all. There are no evident issues with the JavaScript code, and due to the complexity of the site's codebase, I am unable to pinpoint what may have caused this problem.

You can view the demonstration site at , and access the ImageFlow JavaScript at . The intended effect is for the ImageFlow to be integrated into the white box located in the center of the page, showcasing team members (as displayed correctly in Chrome/Firefox). Any guidance or assistance in troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated.

Answer №1

Although I can't provide a ready-made solution for your code issue, I can shed some light on why it doesn't work properly in IE9. The initialization event that locates the 'myImageFlow' div occurs before the div is fully loaded into the DOM. This could be due to how the ImageFlow plugin mimics the DOMContentLoaded event specifically for IE. It appears that the ImageFlow plugin relies on the DOMContentLoaded plugin, which hasn't been updated since May '08. It's likely that this outdated library is causing compatibility issues with ImageFlow, which also seems to be quite outdated.

My suggestion would be to consider finding a more up-to-date plugin. If that doesn't resolve the problem, you might want to experiment with the DOMContentLoaded section to determine why there isn't enough delay in IE9 (you can use the debugger F12).

If you haven't written any code for the website, chances are ImageFlow wasn't installed either. But, has installation already been taken care of? Or maybe not!

<div id="unique_name" class="imageflow"> 
    <img src="dir/image_1.jpg" longdesc="URL_1" width="w_1" height="h_1" alt="Text_1" />
</div>

The dimensions (w_x and h_x) of the image must be specified in XHTML for full compatibility with Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, only Microsoft's Internet Explorer requires this extra step - other browsers can determine the dimensions through JavaScript!

This means that you may need to add the image dimensions to the XHTML on the server side for IE compatibility. Is this process already in place?

Answer №3

After testing the website on IE8, everything appears to be functioning properly in terms of animation. However, there is an issue with the images appearing stretched vertically.

Answer №4

To resolve this issue, utilize jQuery - all solutions are accurate except for the dom handler.

The key is to use $(document).ready()

$(document).ready(function()
{
    var circular_3 = new ImageFlow();
    circular_3.init({ ImageFlowID: 'imageflow1',
        //circular: true,
        reflections: false,
        reflectionP: 0.4,
        slider: false,
        captions: false,
        opacity: true,
        xStep: 250,
        imageFocusM: 1.5,
        startID: 2
    });

Apologies for the delayed response to this question. While InvisibleBacon is correct that the domReady code has not been updated since 2008, I have personally tested it and confirmed that it functions properly on IE 5 through 11, Firefox, Chrome, Mobile Chrome, Safari, and Mobile Safari. Unfortunately, I did not test it on Opera.

It appears that the issue may have been with the imageflow.js code you were previously using, which I noticed you have since removed from your website.
