Mahindra ads

Tim_in_IA · Jan 3, 2007

I am using Firefox 2.0.0.1 and the Mahindra ads don't work. The mouse pointer changes when you hover over them but when you click nothing happens.

All of them?

I only see 1 Mahindra ad on TBN currently.

I use Firefox 2.0.0.1 as my browser.

The Mahindra ad that I found on TBN plays a short movie clip of a farmer using his Mahindra in a very unsafe manner. He is driving around with his loader raised up. He is driving around with the loader raised up with a large round bale elevated . . . all of his operation is done with the ROPS bar folded in the down position

and he talks about learning life lessons on the farm (I guess they don't include safety?) and doing things for his kids (I guess that doesn't include trying to stay alive?)

Who at Mahindra let all that slip by?

Seriously, that movie clip is flawed badly!

They all work for me using IE7.

Tim, I believe FF is automatically set to prevent things like that from working, i assume when you click on it then it opens a pop-up window, if so, its probable that FF is blocking this.

I'm on FF too, and I dont have any Ads atall.

I get no ads what so ever with FireFox.

The video is in the middle of the HOME page of TBN. You click on the upper right hand corner of the video screen (when using FF) to start the video. Not sure if it works the same way with other browsers like Safari, IE, etc.

Does firefox have Java etc??

I'm not talking about the movie ad on the front page, I can view that fine. I am talking about the side banners that show up, life on a farm etc....

It isn't a pop up issue, it is something with the way the ad is created. Maybe active X or something?
