Hello Allen,

Can you please confirm if the site developer has ensured that all the icons are present on the server. One of the images which you are not able to view is this - http://siouxfallsfamilyhistory.com/images%5Cicons%5CPDF.png and this image file is not present on the server.

it will help if you can check with the site owner to see if these images are indeed available on the server or not.

Thank you

The icons on the web browser internet explorer work ok. So I wonder what is wrong with the firefox browser ?

Funny that when the correct path is used the PDF icon shows.

Firefox won't even recognize the given file path as part of a URI because it isn't a valid URI path.

\ is not a reserved deliminator for a URI and is escaped to %5C

Firefox is "wrong" because it follows web standards.

If the website isn't inclined to fix it, there is an old extension that modifies the page on the fly to work in Firefox. I haven't tried it myself.
