Hmmm... I absolutely retract my comments about IE8 being glitchy with asking for passwords. It's even offering to remember my password for MyFreeola in IE8 now. You were indeed correct :)
Maybe these other people who had similar problems (that I found by searching) also have similar javascript on their login pages? Who knows.

Thanks for your investigation Hmmm, I believe I found the problem an issue with the URL, not quite to do with the "www.", but to do with the URL none the less.
This issue should be resolved now, if you try again you should see the preview. If you notice any other issues please do not hesitate to let us know :D

Hi LukeM,
I've taken a couple of screen shots to show you what I get when I upload a Favicon. I've left the dialogue box there for a few minutes and nothing loads and there don't appear to be any broken images. I'm using FF 3.6
The first InstantPro message is correct as I'm loading a small image - Favicon size in fact :¬)
Screen Shots
In the 'preview' window I just see the text "Your edited Favicon image" where I'm assuming I should be seeing the actual Favicon?
I see the URL doesn't include 'www' which doesn't work (unfortunately*) for Freeola500 sites - could that be part of the problem?
*In the past I've been told this can't be changed which is a shame - I thought it could be done with a a DNS or symlink change?

Works great for me :)

I have just tested the majority of sites who have uploaded favicons. They all seem to work in IE7 (on XP SP3) and IE8 (on Windows 7), albeit with a delay between the page being rendered and the favicon being found and displayed by the browser.
There shouldn't be any issues with favicons being found by your browser at the moment, but as I have said before in another favicon related thread (I think), that favicons are quite temperamental and when you are regularly changing them and trying to make them work problems with caching and all sorts can occur.
I have not been able to find any issues with the preview for the favicons however. Not in any browser. How long did you wait on this page? Is it possible you did not wait for all the images to display? Were there any missing image icons showing? The more information regarding this issue the better because so far I cannot reproduce it.
Thanks again for your testing Hmmm, and I call out to anyone else with InstantPro accounts who have not used this feature yet to try it out and let us know how you get on.

Removed the JS submit to put a proper submit button in and added some JS to removed and added the inputs that swap when the radio buttons are clicked. Leaving them hidden didn't work. Should hopefully work for most people now!

Was is just removing the JS submit or have you changed other stuff as well.
Hopefully this will keep your IE customers happy.

LukeM is having a quick check.
RE: IE's refusal to remember MyFreeola logins. We've had some progress on this thanks to the link you posted. It's now working in IE 6, 7 and 8 for us. Hopefully it does for you too. You may need to clear your browser cache.

...Just noticed that my Favicon had stopped displaying again in IE today. Looking directly at it it was still the same size as my original (unlike the other day when it was bigger).
Just uploaded another original png and it displays straight away in IE ?
Any other Freeola InstantPro users tried adding a Favicon to their site yet?
