Quick question to see if anyone else is having issues with Firefox not loading the webpages correctly...either not loading images, or not using the .css guides and just using bloody times roman. :undecided:

Nope. The only issues I have with rendering pages are with Noscript when I forget to allow it.

Might be worth clearing your cache and making sure you are up to date. Currently running 13.0 here.

Might be worth doing a speed test. Mine gets like that if my connection gets really bad.

Stick with Google chrome. Firefox is unstable and inconsistent

Yeah but the little un uses it as she likes the fox and she has her bookmarks at the top for cbeebies / moshimonsters etc.  Plus the cache cleared Firefox quit and restart has actually done it. I still prefer the "feel" of Firefox tho, but agree Chrome is quicker and more stable....usually

you can transfer bookmarks from firefox to chrome if you wish. But if you want to stick to firefox you could try using an older version as these seem to run better, well in my opinion anyway.

Based on what?

I've been using FF since version 2 and it's a bloody good browser.  Chrome, Safari and IE all screw up displaying things just as much as FF does.

Mostly browser issues are caused by operator error.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.
