For some reason whenever I go to the page of my website that has the crystal report on it my main navigation bar disappears. Here is what the header for the site (with the navigation menu) is suppose to look like:
and here is what it looks like when there is a report on the page:
Could someone tell me what is causing this and how I can fix it?
I'm using master page for the header by the way.
Greener, the Crystal Report viewer is a dynamic HTML representation of the report. It combines JavaScript, HTML and CSS (duh, what doesn't) to represent your report on the webpage. The toolbars are powered by JavaScript calls to .JS that is linked in when the CrystalReportViewer control is rendered to your page.
My point is, all of this introduces a LOT of stuff that can conflict with your existing page. In particular JavaScript errors can occur (which can cause certain things to stop rendering) OR CSS the report uses happens to apply styles you never intended to have applied to objects in your page.
I highly recommend installing the Web Developer toolbar and/or FireBug to FireFox, IE, or whatever browser they are offered on these days. FireFox's implementation of those is quite good in my experience.
When the page loads you can use the 'CSS' menu of the Web Developer toolbar to actually disable some or ALL the styles applied to the page. If disabling Crystal related styles (or all) makes your missing toolbar appear, then it's probably a conflict in your CSS. A front end developer would know to adjust the styles (i.e. add the !important directive to a style, change class/id names, etc.) to address this.
Alternatively, FireBug may be reporting JavaScript errors (heck, even FireFox can show these in the console) which could indicate a problem that prevents the completion of rendering your toolbar.
An outside possibility is that the report itself contains mark-up. For example, if you had certain fields in the report contain HTML that happened to be rendered by the browser, this could create an open div tag, css styles and even JavaScript that would do all the stuff I explained above.
I hope this narrows it down for you. Happy troubleshooting!
I was having the same issue and after hours of searching I finally resolved it... check this out... http://scn.sap.com/thread/1926659
In the crystalreportviewer css file, I adjusted the div class = clear and changed the height attribute and disabled overflow:hidden. Hopefully, that works for you. Good luck!
I found the solution after searching on the web and is a quite simple.
On the Site Master, change the Name for all the places you have the style "clear" for example "clear1" and change it too en the site.css with that name.
The problem is for the conflic with the namespaces with Crystal Report css.
Hope this help.

I'm creating Views for an ASP.NET MVC application. I'm using _Layout and some other Views like Shop, Contact, etc., which have only one element: "content".
How can I set content change animation? I don't like white flashing while changing.
What you're seeing is unrelated to MVC and is the result of simple HTML page transitions. Since you're actually changing the entire page, the white flashing is the result of loading the new page.
You can manage this through CSS and jQuery. Here is one article that describes one way to manage page transitions. Just search for HTML Page Transitions and you'll see plenty of jQuery libraries made for this with extensive documentation.
Here is one jQuery library I found: Animsition
Some additional information on the white flickering you're seeing from this article.
Amongst the various problems with web page loading, white flicker is
considered to be one of the common issues which occurs during page
access, loading, reloading, and traversing Internet browsers. The
white flicker occurs for various reasons including the browser trying
to render the page before the style sheet has finished loading,
JavaScript issues and other rendering faults. Browsers will always
wait until everything (beyond images) has finished downloading before
rendering.
It depends of your css template, if It has spinners you should look in the documentation, if your template doesn´t have, look for one, there are a lot of template of spinners with documentation.
Here is an example of documentation (of course, this apply if you are using inspinia, but all of them have similar applications):

We've been having an odd issue that I'm not sure how to tackle, and I think this may be related to a recent Google Chrome update, but I'd like some way of sanity checking myself before I open an issue on the bug tracker.
Problem
We have an internal web application that our users use Google Chrome to access. Starting sometime early last week, we've noticed that when users middle click links, one or more of our stylesheets gets unapplied to the page.
Weirdly enough, zooming in / out or opening Chrome's Devtools re-applies these stylesheets to the page. If you open the sources tab in the Devtools and watch the stylesheets that are loaded, when the layout is working, we're seeing the full list of stylesheets. When a user middle clicks on a link, the stylesheets area flashes and the CSS file is missing from the list. Zooming in / out re-adds the missing CSS file to that sources list and renders the page correctly.
Before Middle Click
After Middle Click
Troubleshooting
Thinking this was some JavaScript function doing this, I watched the elements to make sure there weren't any changes to the DOM (thinking we may be adding a class to our wrapper elements on accident). No DOM changes that I can see, and I'm not seeing inline styles applied to HTML elements.
Figuring that the previous step wasn't enough, I removed all the JavaScript on the page trying to narrow down what file is doing this. After removing all JS from the page, we're still seeing the same thing. Someone middle clicks a link, then the page's styles go crazy.
I double checked it in Incognito mode, figuring it was one of my extensions. It still happens in Incognito mode.
Thinking our Stylus compiler was going nuts, I double checked the stylesheets for any invalid CSS and couldn't find any. I removed the source maps from all our stylesheets thinking it may be related to that, but it didn't fix the issue either.
I've also checked for the stylesheet being affected having a disabled attribute set on it, but that doesn't seem to be happening.
Wrapup
All in all, I'm not sure what's causing this outside of a browser bug. This is something that had popped up late last week which coincides with the last upgrade of Google Chrome, which hints to me that this probably relates to that update.
That being said I've not seen this issue affect other websites, which also points to the website being the issue so I'm not sure.
Is there any other way I can narrow this down to being a Chrome issue? I've not had this happen on any other browsers I've tested. (Working on putting together a MVP of the issue that's happening now.)
Your problem sounds similar to this.
Chrome Bug: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=647151
Should be fixed shortly.
I'm trying to use an open source HTML5 file uploader snippet in one of my pages, and have put (I believe) all the correct javascript in place.
However, when the page loads I see the 'choose file..' button along with the text box that shows the path to the file on my hard drive, and they're both greyed out.
In looking through the Google and FireFox development tools I can't see why this would be; the CSS involved is quite involved and I can't tell easily whether there's a block display of hidden in there, or whether something else is disabled.
Nothing's jumping out. Are there HTML or CSS inspectors that can help figure out why HTML element X is disabled?
There should be a disabled attribute set. You can try two things:
Check the HTML by viewing the source code. This is the HTML rendered before JavaScript.
Check the Dev Tools and look for a disabled attribute. Then check your JavaScript.
It is hard to debug this remotely but this should send you on your way.
I have a website in wordpress. I recently download a plugin called Advanced Ajax Page Loader. It refreshes you content when clicked on other page without refreshing the whole site(header, footer). I tried to get my answer from plugins developer and wordpress support forum, but none responded.
I read that if ajax jquery call is used then all scripts should be reloaded again, for that the plugin have a place where I should put those codes. Until that everything works correctly, except one thin. When I go from a category to category, everything works fine, but when I open a single Post it completely screws up all my css for that page, when I refresh it, everything looks fine but then again, if I open one of the big categories with many posts, then that pages css is messed up.
I though that I could somehow refresh whole css by putting some code in the "Reload code" box, but I have no idea how to do that using scripts. English isn't my native language, therefore I'm having difficulty finding my answer on google, I tried, but my vocabulary is limited. How can I do it?
are you adding CSS classes to your elements via Javascript? If so, then the styles you add will only affect those elements which are part of the DOM at that point in time, so you might be experiencing a race condition, that actually happens to work in Chrome and Safari, but not Firefox.
second try to validate your markup and CSS and see if you have any error in your css syntax ?
I'm getting a difference in my design view and what the actual preview displays. I'm pretty sure my code is correctly reflecting what appears in the design view, but incorrectly in the browser preview. Any suggestions on how I can fix this and why this is happening? The black content area should be below the header and buttons.

Browser Preview: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/638/browserpreviewz.jpg/
IE and Chrome both display the same behavior.
Here is the code of the master page: (because of '<' I'm having getting asp code in here...how do I enter it in as code sample?)
Personally, I find i can never trust the web preview in visual Studio, so while this is not really an answer to your specific question I recommend you always use an actual browser for preview. :)
Your CSS might be cached. When you are looking at the web preview, It is worth a try to reload the page and the CSS by clicking ctrl-F5 (not just F5). This worked for me a few times when I felt that my CSS changes are not being rendered in the web preview.
