    If this is the wrong place for this apologies........

    Is anyone else having problems today viewing threads with Firefox ?

    Sometimes when I click on a thread in a forum it opens up as an unformatted text page.
    Never happened before,only happening the odd time and haven't seen it happen with IE yet

    Does hitting refresh work? There have been some issues reported with FF occasionally losing the CSS if its externally linked.

    The reload did work though Doodle........at least it did that time but subsequently didn't......looks like I'll have to go back to 'reliable' IE......and may the Lord have mercy on my soul....

    I experienced it too. Latest version of firefox.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,264 ✭✭✭✭Hobbes


    I experienced it some months back, and just now. Latest firefox.

    I think the last time it happened was to a memory leak in the beta version of FF. Not sure why it is happening now. Generally close your browser window and reopen it.

    Yes, I've seen this problem. I've also seen it on other sites. A refresh works and should be quick.
