No need to put it anywhere. You can only evaluate javascript code in the Javascript Console: not html code.
You wrote that you didn't see that image. Do you see any images?
(you can remove them from the quotes of my post).


OK now you've lost me. :? After realising that a certain someone in the family was testing netblockade and neglected to delete it of my computer last year, I deleted it, and the rest of the internet cleanup software, which i never use. I can see all images in the test now, but I'm still having touble with my MSN space.

You can press the printscreen key and paste the image to paint.
I use IrfanView to make screenshots: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic ... 75#2001175
If you need a place to host a screenshot, look at http://www.imageshack.us/

I've already made the screenshot, I just don't know how to add it to my post. Thanks for the tip though.

You need to host it somewhere such as http://www.imageshack.us/ (as suggested) then post the link to the image as this forum does not allow for attachments like some forums do.

I should be getting a slide show of images like on my brother's page http://spaces.msn.com/hardwine but instead my page looks like the screenshot i just posted and doesn't actually load the images.

You can right-click and check the properties of the missing images or use Tools > Page Info : Media tab to check the image location.
You can also check View > Page Source or use the mouse the select that image and right-click and View Selection Source.
The image on the left could still be blocked: did you check that in
Tools > Options > Content : Load Images: Exceptions

Also Check this pref (about:config)
Type in the url bar: about:config <enter>
Filter: dom.disable_image_src_set -> false

There is not much more that I can think of.

Am I missing something, or does the link from that screenshot not work?
Can you post a direct link to the page?

I can view photos in public spaces, but i can't view the photos in my own space or my friends' spaces, (their spaces are private so only I and our friends have permission to view it). Example, my bro's page http://spaces.msn.com/hardwine this space is public, and you can see the photos. Can't do this on a private space, nor can I view my photos on my own space. I don't have any adblocking software installed. I'm using Mac OS X 10.3.9, but I'm hearing from other websites, it's not just a mac problem, alhough, I didn't have this problem with firefox on my dad's windows XP laptop. I did you're trial and can see all images accept for image 4.

OK, did what you said, and the web site has been allowed in preferences>content:load images. also with about:config I got this:

Image

I also did tools>page info and started clicking around, but wasn't sure what to doo from there. but i did notice something interesting when I clicked on the sercurity section of page info:

Image

Also unsure as to what to do, after control clicking on missing images and selecting page or selection source...

By the looks of it, the problem with MSN Spaces is deffinately a firefox issue (mac version that is, this problem doesn't sem to exist on firefox for windows, checked dad's laptop), I just checked with my Safari browser, and photos work perfectly, (well, as perfect as you're gonna get on a mac) :lol: Thank you soo much for you help.

The security tab is only important if you have a https secure conection. For a noraml connection even if you have to login it doesn't give useful info.
If the images don't show even if you put the full url of an image in the url bar (that was the purpose of looking at the properties) then something in Fx or an external program must be blocking them.
I'm not an expert on Mac so I can't advice you where to start looking.
