    Andy,
    In this gallery you choose - In the custom settings I changed the option to allow "easy sharing". Saved, logged out, logged back in and the "share photo" button is not available.

    ...
    I see the share button in this gallery? And I see your customization.

    So must be working now?

    This could screw up your code:


    #altViews {width: 340px;}

    remove it for now and see.

    Didn't change anything..
    Looks to be only an issue with IE6.

    I checked on my other home computer using FF and IE7 and the buttons are there "share photo and others in same line". It is only when using IE6 the share photo button is not available - and it becomes available onlyu after I cnage the custom gallery settings from "Custom" to "SM".
    I have cleared out cookies, deleted temp files and settings and this did not change anything.

    Do you have the ability to view the galleries using IE6?

    anyone get a chance to look at this using IE6?
    http://www.mlkimages.smugmug.com/gallery/1995639#116401696

    Share button is not available when viewing with IE6. FF and IE7 are fine.

    It is in your code, your CSS, which has errors in it.

    look for


    * html .menu a, * html .menu a:visited {
    width:125px;
    w\idth:139px;
    }


    and

    * html .menu ul ul {
    top:30px;
    t\op:31px; /* IE gap between main bar and the dropdown items */
    }

    * html .menu ul ul a{
    width:125px; /* unknown */
    w\idth:104px; /* DD FF width */
    }


    the \ are errors and should be removed. IE6 is probably choking on that.


    You have this in your CSS which is Javascript, belongs in the javascript box:

    SM.PhotoBar.config.position = 'bottom';

    I see quite a number of differences here between FF1.5.0.9 and IE6.0.2800:

    FF: 15 thumbs
    IE: only 9
    FF: buy one photo/multiple photos
    IE: buy photo/photos
    FF has the share *and* slideshow buttons, IE doesn't

    IE doesn't show the crumbtrail, either, and there's a break between your white box and the gradient trail at the bottom, which FF doesn't demonstrate.

    I suspect proper CSS that IE can't interpret right. :-)

    Nope......
    I went in and made all the corrections and found a few additional. Still no change in the ability to see let alone use the "Save As" in IE6.

    Still the only way this function is availabkle is when I change "appearance" from Custom to SM - once that has been changed - The "Share Photo, slideshow, themes and add photo" buttons will appear.

    Any other ideas - right now anyone using IE6 will not ba able to used the options on my site.

    This gallery has appearance set to SM:

    This gallery has appearance set to "Custom":

    Hi Michael, I'm sorry you are frustrated. The error is in your custom code, I'm sure it will be found. Hang in there.

    Michael, try again please?

    You had an JS command for the photoBar in your CSS, i moved that to the JS section. You also had an unclosed element line, and you had this, which I removed:
    #breadcrumb { /* remove navigation */
    visibility:visible;

    position:relative;

    }

    .loggedIn #breadcrumb { /* adds navigation logged In*/
    visibility:visible;

    position:relative;

    }


    Have a look, and see if everything is back to normal, please.

    PS, if you want to remove the breadcrumb and buttons when you are logged out, but show them logged in, you can use this code:

    #breadcrumb {
    display: none;
    }

    .loggedIn #breadcrumb {
    display: block;
    }

    That did it!
    Looks like all galleries are working just fine and I have the "share photo" available now.

    Thanks you so much for helping get this corrected.
