Buggy Linux Browsers

Suse 9.1 pro kde, dell latitude 510/610
I am working on this site from an established web template.

http://hpphotographic.com/gallery9.htm

This template is written in straight html and the pop-ups use a jave script I think.

When you click on any image to get a large size pop-up window Galeon errors out, Konqueror says it can't find page, and Mozilla blinks out of existence.

Max osx and os9 with Mozilla or IE on either of them work fine.
XP with Mozilla or IE work fine.

This is pretty significant that every one of my Linux browsers cannot be used to access these pop-ups and every browser on os9/x and xp work fine?????

Could it be something with my system? The Linux browsers work fine otherwise.
Thanks

here is a log from bug buddy on the galeon crash:

My mozilla loads a new page for the photo and it works fine, though I think it's pretty well accepted that users don't enjoy new pages popping up for every link they click.

Works fine for me in Firefox 1.0....Do you have a pop-up blocker configured? <_<

Works fine with Firefox 1.0PR on my machine.

Thanks for the feedback.

Thats interesting that your browsers seem to be working but not mine. It must be something with my system instead of the browsers themselves.

Those pop-up windows are to show the images large and they are generated on-the-fly with java script as seperate windows so features like image right click anti-download protection can work.

Is there someting on Suse 9.1 or KDE at a system level that has to do with javascript that maybe missing or messed-up on my system? This is a fresh default installation from boxed cd. I think I switched to Gnome desktop and had the same problems.

Also works great here on Firefox 0.8. Also running 9.1 Pro but I choose to install everything. Not sure what the default install doesn't include, sorry. I'll see if I can find out though.

Uh-oh, I've got some bad news for you. Image protection doesn't work. In fact, everytime I find it I have to save an image just to see if I can and I've never not been able to. Either way, nice photos.

Works fine in Mozilla 1.4 under Suse 9.0. Also tested IE under WinXP. The major difference is that Mozilla pops them up in a full-size browser window; IE pops them up in a small window.

Yeah, if you put a jpg on a public server, I don't see how you could prevent people from downloading it. Actually, they already downloaded it so they could see it in their browser.

Try changing your pop up settings to "smart" and see if that helps.

I checked the JavaScript on pages and nothing in it should be causing the crash. Throws in an occasional 'event is not defined' (related to the feeble attempt to prevent right-clicking). Didn't go through the script line-by-line but Firefox (0.93) throws this one every time page is loaded:

"Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIObserverService.removeObserver]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://global/content/bindings/browser.xml :: destroy :: line 484" data: no]"

Some problem with browser code.

If you really want to try to protect your images, use watermarking (http://www.digimarc.com/). Even that is no bullet-proof but it is the best copyright protection you can have with images.

'No right clicking' used to be all the rage few years back until everyone realised that it was just a waste of developers time and was more of an invitation for everyone and their grandmother to go and download your images.

How long you think it takes to disable JavaScript in browser (any version)?
