web site content problems

tawwat · 09-27-2008, 09:20 AM

Lots of odd happenings in the last day or so at a variety of web sites. Here are a few samples of problems:

Web site content does not fully load. White blocks where text should be.
Text goes outside frames.
Text is not formatted (bulleted or boxed text has no formatting).
Java script errors.

Any ideas on how to solve these oddities?

is this only with firefox or with all browsers? if you have not done so, try another browser to see if the problem is browser specific.

Also which version of firefox and do you have all the latest updates?

Some thing to consider, some pages are not written for firefox so it would have problems similar to what you are having. Post a link to one of the pages you are having problems with.

I'd try clearing your cache as a starting point.

I only use firefox. I was not having problems prior to a few days ago. The first site to start acting strange was Blogger.com. I've had a blog there for years & never had these problems before.

I just downloaded the latest vers of firefox - 3.0.2

This happens erratically. Any ideas?
