• I installed a copy of WordPress at http://www.woggie.com. I installed a copy of a script called phpAdsNew on another domain. phpAdsNew basically serves ads and keeps track of them. I generated the invocation code for a text ad and placed it at the top of index.php in my theme’s folder. This is the code:

    <script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='http://www.blazonsolutions.info/ads/adx.js'></script>
    <script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
    <!--
    if (!document.phpAds_used) document.phpAds_used = ',';
    phpAds_random = new String (Math.random()); phpAds_random = phpAds_random.substring(2,11);

    document.write ("<" + "script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='");
    document.write ("http://www.blazonsolutions.info/ads/adjs.php?n=&quot; + phpAds_random);
    document.write ("&amp;what=zone:2&amp;target=_blank");
    document.write ("&amp;exclude=" + document.phpAds_used);
    if (document.referrer)
    document.write ("&amp;referer=" + escape(document.referrer));
    document.write ("'><" + "/script>");
    //-->
    </script><noscript><a href='http://www.blazonsolutions.info/ads/adclick.php?n=a25f25ef&#039; target='_blank'><img src='http://www.blazonsolutions.info/ads/adview.php?what=zone:2&amp;n=a25f25ef&#039; border='0' alt=''></a></noscript>

    The text ad is visible between the header image and the top post, and the link looks like a hyperlink. I put my mouse pointer over the link and I get javascript:CJ311502X678.submit(); . Clinking on the link is supposed to launch a new window and connect to the sponsors website.

    When I click on the link in Firefox nothing happens. When I place the invocation code in any WordPress file and then click on the resulting link in Firefox nothing happens.

    When I make a test page called http://www.woggie.com/testing.php , and put the invocation code on it, it works perfectly. When I bring up http://www.woggie.com in Internet Explorer, it works perfectly. It only DOESN’T work when the invocation code is on a WordPress page and I’m using Firefox.

    So, anyone have any idea why it isn’t working? Thanks.

  • You may want to contact your sponsor to make sure their javascript is compatible with FF. I don’t think it’s a WP issue.
    They should be able to tell you if there’s anything in their adx.js file that may be incompatible with FF. At least you could rule that out.
    I’m assuming you got the code from your sponsor. So they should also have a version that works with FFx.

    rehzone,

    It works fine on a page I created called testing.php, placed in the same directory as the wordpress files. It’s only when the page is a wordpress page that it doesn’t work with FireFox.

    I’m going to try pasting the invocation on a page from a brand new installation of wordpress.
