Full Version: No individual photo edit or delete options in my gallery!

I STILL can't seem to find the delete or edit options for individual photos in my gallery. Yes I click on a photo and YES I click were it says options but nothing comes up that says delete or edit. I have more artwork I want to upload but I'm going to hold off until those features are back on my photo options.

I did a couple of experiments:

I created a new (non-moderator) account, started a gallery, and tried that "options" button, and it worked as it should; I got the edit/delete/report options. So it's not that they only work for moderators.

Then I tried turning off Javascript support in my browser, and I found (not surprisingly) that a lot of site features, including that "options" button, broke. So one possibility is that you've either got Javascript turned off, or you're using an older web browser that can't handle the scripts on this site. The new site has even more "Web 2.0"-type features than the old one, and these all require Javascript to be turned on and functional.

How do I do that?

I've never had this problem until the site upgrades. If I can't find a way to fix the problem, I'm just gonna say the **** with it and take down my gallery sheesh.

Depends on what web browser you're using: (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Netscape, something else?) and what version (IE4, 5, 6, 7? Firefox 1, 1.5, 2, 3?)

Netscape/Mozilla Firefox.

For Firefox 2.0, there's an "Enable JavaScript" checkbox on the Content tab of the Preferences dialog; it should be checked.

But your reply sounds as if you're seeing this with multiple different browsers. If that's the case, then I wonder if it's not browser settings, but rather a piece of security software (like Norton or MacAfee), or a firewall at your office, that's set up to filter out all incoming JavaScript. If that's the case, then browser settings won't help.

Can you, for example, see videos on YouTube? Or if you go to this page: http://script.aculo.us/ , do you see the following message?

"You really, really need to enable JavaScript to view this page".

Yeah I can watch yutube but it takes time to load because I'm on dial-up. The site link looks way too techie for me.
