My website has links to Amazon books. They display in my IE browser but do not if I use FF. Is there a solution?

more options

The surrounding content on the page appears but the actual links remain blank. Here is a sample of a link...

<iframe src="http://rcm-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/cm?lt1=_blank&bc1=000000&IS2=1&bg1=FFFFFF&fc1=000000&lc1=0000FF&t=dancewithmarm-20&o=1&p=8&l=as1&m=amazon&f=ifr&md=10FE9736YVPPT7A0FBG2&asins=0897329732" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe>

It would appear that the page will not appear correctly to any visitor using FF as a browser.

Could it be because you use Adblock Plus and the URLs clearly point to an ad server? Perhaps you can find an alternate way to link.

Also, if your site uses HTTPS, an iframe with an HTTP src would be blocked, and a shield icon would appear at the left end of the address bar.

Thanks! Looks like Adblock is the culprit - I disabled the Adblock add-on and the page displays ok.

A lot of other Firefox users also use Adblock Plus, so if it is important for them to see the, er, ads, you may need to change how you embed the links.
