Unfortunately, I cannot view these in the UK. Have you used the browser debugging tools to check the javascript console and the network tab to view what is happening server and client side? It may offer some clues.
</div>


<div>
What TV service are you using?
</div>


<div>
They don't have TV service at that location. &nbsp;On my network, I can click to sign in and enter my Verizon credentials and access the content.
</div>


<div>
Martyn - I've used the javascript console and don't see any issues in that. &nbsp;I have not looked at the network tab. &nbsp;Is that only available in DevTools?
</div>


<div>
Websites like that require that you be a subscriber to the service on cable or satellite, and those credentials be used to view their content. Clicking on one of the icons, or clicking on All Providers, and then finding his cable or satellite provider will move you forward. But he (or someone who is willing to let him use their credentials) need to be entered into the site before watching the content. <br />
<br />
I went to HGTV and entered my Dish Network login and password, and the programming started streaming after verifying me with Dish Network. It worked the same with someone else's Comcast credentials.
</div>


<div>
The network tab is usually visible in Firefox without any specific dev tools installation.
</div>


<div>
In re-reading your original question, I want to ask if you have already entered a provider previously? &nbsp;The first time you visit those sites they put an overlay on the site and make you set up. I am wondering if there is a cache or preference file that has saved that info, and something is incorrect. <br />
<br />
When I go to the site, I press &quot;Watch Live TV&quot; and I am taken to a screen with a VERY LARGE play button in the middle. Do you see that? Clicking that the first time requires you to add a service provider. After signing in, the &quot;Sign in to your provider&quot; disappears and is replaced with my provider. Then the big PLAY button actually play's content. <br />
<br />
Maybe you need to clear your browser data and try again signing up.
</div>


<div>
You didn't answer my question - what TV service do they subscribe to that lets them watch HGTV and DIY at home? Like Cox or AT&amp;T Uverse or DirectTV? Each one has a different login. I may be able to find the site to which you can login and that may fix your problem.
</div>


<div>
I agree with William and said the same thing. They need to subscribe to a cable or satellite service to use these websites.
</div>


<div>
Hi Owen, &nbsp;We know they need to login to the site to view the content. &nbsp;The issue is that clicking on the button to sign in does nothing at all.<br />
<br />
William - They use Verizon.
</div>


<div>
Try having them first login here - <a href="http://tv.verizon.com/" rel="ugc">http://tv.verizon.com/</a><br />
<br />
Then try to watch those shows.
</div>


<div>
William - I can login to tv.verizon.com and I can view live tv for all of the other channels I've tried, but it still doesn't work for diynetwork.com. &nbsp;When I click on any other station, it takes me to their site but it recognizes that I've logged into Verizon. &nbsp;That isn't happening for diynetwork.
</div>


<div>
I brought the site up on my own computer in Firefox and on the network that's having the issue. &nbsp;I opened the network tab on both. &nbsp;When I click the &quot;Play&quot; icon or the &quot;sign in to your provider&quot; button, nothing happens on the network tab at all on the client network. &nbsp;On my computer, it works fine and a bunch of lines show up in the network tab.<br />
<br />
If I go to the Console tab, they both show warnings, but the client's Firefox also shows the following:<br />
<a href="https://filedb.experts-exchange.com/incoming/2018/09_w36/1381616/firefoxerror.jpg" target="_blank" title="Firefox Console Error (33 KB)"><img alt="Firefox Console Error" class="file-block lazyload" style="max-width: 800px;" data-src="https://filedb.experts-exchange.com/incoming/2018/09_w36/800_1381616/firefoxerror.jpg" /></a>

<div>
Sean, does your TV provider offer the DIY network in the current package of channels? If not, then this will not work with that account. Just something to check.
</div>


<div>
I would suggest you call Verizon customer support and see if they are having a technical issue on their end, especially since other channels still work. Could be DIY/HGTV is having problems or updating something.
</div>


<div>
Owen - The issue isn't that the package isn't available. &nbsp;I used with my own credentials and it works on my home computer and not on theirs. &nbsp;Also, when you click the button to choose your TV provider, nothing happens. &nbsp;It wouldn't fail at that point.<br />
<br />
William - I put a ticket in with DIY/HGTV, but they said they couldn't recreate the issue. &nbsp;It's been happening for months.
</div>


<div>
Thanks Sean. Just eliminating all the easy possibilities first. Sometimes those get easily overlooked. Sorry.
</div>


<div>
Sean, when you move the mouse over the button, does it acknowledge that the mouse is over the button at all? (It changes color slightly for me.) If not, then for some reason, the code for &quot;button&quot; sounds messed up here. But I have no idea why. <br />
<br />
Would you humor me and go to this link and see if all the buttons respond when you click them. ? <a href="https://terrillthompson.com/tests/buttons.html" rel="ugc">https://terrillthompson.com/tests/buttons.html</a><br />
<br />
Not exactly scientific, but I am curious if the button css is being overwritten somehow. <br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
-Owen-
</div>


<div>
Owen - Yes, the button does change color when I hover over it. &nbsp;I can see all of the button's on the test page and if I click on them, the border changes red.
</div>


<div>
Ok, so the button code is recognized, which makes this issue even more strange. That button does open a pop-up I believe. Is it possible that a pop-up blocker or ad-blocker is running on that PC?
</div>


<div>
I know, it's a very strange one. &nbsp;The pop up blocker is turned off.
</div>


<div>
Damn. Ok, back to the drawing board and see if I can make this fail for me.
</div>


<div>
Hi Sean. I am shotgunning here, so go with me while I confirm some things that might cause this. <br />
<a href="https://www.whatismybrowser.com/detect/is-javascript-enabled" rel="ugc">https://www.whatismybrowser.com/detect/is-javascript-enabled</a><br />
<br />
Just want to check that javascript is actually enabled. I know you said you checked, but tell me if you see YES on that page. Thanks.
</div>


<div>
And maybe a quick check of jQuery as well, as it can cause these errors: <br />
<br />
<a href="https://jqueryui.com/demos/" rel="ugc">https://jqueryui.com/demos/</a><br />
<br />
Click on buttons and see if they all respond.<br />
Thanks<br />
<br />
(I really want to know what is causing this! &nbsp;:-) &nbsp;)

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.

Web browsers are applications used primarily to display documents, files and media from the Internet, identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that can be a page, image, video or other file. Some browsers require the use of add-ons or extensions to safely render the information they receive; others have systems built into them to perform the same functions.
