Okay, so images show on most websites in Firefox, but on the galleries of Unesco http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1469/gallery/ images don't show up at all. I tried in Internet Explorer and there it works fine. Quite sure it worked before at this website in Firefox but can't remember. Tried many different solutions in different FAQs but nothing worked. Adding images to show

Okay, I found the solution. I had Firefox 46, but updated to 47 and now it works.

Hmm, uploading images didn't work for some reason the first time

Confirmed. Pictures show up in Win IE, not in Firefox. Pictures are displayed when the link is opened in a new tab.

Don't know if this means anything;

No problems here with the images.

If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) that can block content (e.g. Adblock Plus, NoScript, Flash Block, Ghostery) then make sure such extensions do not block content. There is security software that can interfere with loading content, so check that as well.

Disabled Adblock and Flash Block. No change. Don't use anything else.

Started in Safe Mode. Still no picture on the gallery page.

This is possibly a JavaScript issue, so make sure that no JavaScript is blocked. Clicking an image should open the big image in a pop-up lightbox.

I've seen cases that ABP is still blocking content even when disabled.

Have tried disabling Adblock and starting without extensions in safe mode but pictures are still not there. The pictures does not even show up in site info as if Firefox doesn't actually recognize them as images. Also, if you click "description" link at the top of that page, there should be an image gallery there as well which doesn't show up, as well as an embedded Google Map which here only displays a "loading... please wait". This map I know worked just a few days ago. I tried to also delete my old preference file but nothing changed. Javascript doesn't seem to be blocked and I've added an exception for the site in Adblock. I also tried disabling my Anti-Virus software, but still no success.

Can these errors have significance?
