Hello!!We realized that there is a problem with Internet Explorer and gallery of Renderosity. One cannot go any more in the gallery with this navigator, one has an error message then.

When has it been policy to "...suggest using I.E."? Firefox is a much better and safer browser to use, and I remember ClintH saying that he loved it. :)

For the Internet I prefer W3C compliant pages that will function correctly in all major browsers. IE, Firefox, Opera, Safari, whatever. For corporate intranets it might be useful to target a specific browser. I still prefer W3C compliancy, but I can imagine scenarios where ActiveX controls running in a browser are a good solution. Which means targeting IE only. Since Renderosity is an Internet site it should be designed to run correctly in all browsers. Not just Firefox, or IE, or Opera. I just ran the Marketplace front page through the W3C validator - quite a few validation errors against HTML 4.01 Transitional. Most of the errors were caused by URLs with querystring arguments, some are genuine errors that should be looked into by the Bondware programmers. Building a website that makes it through the W3C validation takes more consideration and time than building it "quick and dirty." But a validated web site is guaranteed to display correctly in ALL browsers - worth the time! And since a W3C validated site shows the commitment and skill of the builder, it also instills trust in the visitor. Good for the reputation - which means good for sales.

I use IE and don't have any problem viewing the galleries. Could be something in your settings. SndCastie Community Admin.

Sorry I thought your message said you couldn't view the galleries using IE. My mistake. SndCastie

The URL in your screenshot suggests you were trying to view only the gallery source image and not loading the page via clicking on the thumbnail. This appears to have been disabled to prevent bandwidth theft and deep-linking. Karen

Karen is right - they've got a 403 error message and that only happens if you try to access a part of the site that you don't have permission to access.
