Am I the only one having issues with the forum in regards to the fonts jumping in size and sometimes style? I load the page and it looks normal, then a few seconds later all fonts downsize for a few seconds. when I click anywhere on the page it jumps back to normal. It doesnt seem to do this in Firefox. Also seems to have started after yesterday when some work was being done.

Any ideas?

edit: this also only happens on waguns as far as i can see...

Normal: Screen shot right as page opens...


Not normal: screen shot when it readjusts a few seconds later...

Clear your cache and cookies. You may still have a style saved from the "working period" that is conflicting.

Oly, what's a smart guy like you doing using IE???

A while back I totally made the switch to Chrome and liked it for a while... then one day any time I watched youtube vids in chrome my system would lock up, occasional normal sites with advanced adds would also do this too.Then I switched to Firefox, and eventually the same thing happened, so I went back to IE and no longer had the issue. Now I have a new computer but all of my favorites are in IE and I'm lazy.

You do know if you install FF, or Chrome, that they will import all your favorites for you?

They do?

Haha, yea I do, but they always mess things up..... Im just generally having issues today, might be a global thing. really slow. For example when I type this all the smileys stop being animated.......

Well, I kinda hate all of the mainstream browsers....

IE really pisses me off, so I avoid that whenever possible . . . though sometimes it's necessary to get a particular page to work correctly.

Firefox has been my browser of choice for a number of years, but lately it's been acting up and causing my computer to freeze, plus they seem to be releasing updates WAY too frequently (to fix the problems?), which means that my plug-ins like Roboform are inevitably behind and won't work.

So lately I've been using Chrome for the most part, which has been decent . . . but has been a little slow too.

There are FF add-ons that make needing IE at all a thing of the past.

it is happening to me too.It is getting annoying.

Internet Explorer 8 and above

From the Safety menu in the upper right, click Delete Browsing History... .

Deselect Preserve Favorites website data, and select Temporary Internet files, Cookies, and History.

Click Delete.



Internet Explorer 7

From the Tools menu in the upper right, select Internet Options.

Under "Browsing history", click Delete... .

To delete your cache, click Delete files... .

To delete your cookies, click Delete cookies... .

To delete your history, click Delete history... .
Click Close, and then click OK to exit.

Did the IE8 instructions and still the same. This might just force me back to Firefox or Chrome I guess.

Glad to know I'm not crazy and seeing things....

Ok. I just cleared out OUR cache as well as optimized the db.

Let me know if things get better. I have been back and forth on all 3 browsers today and have not had that issue. But, I DO KNOW the issue you are having.

Well, I have to confess . . . I'm on someone else's computer at the moment, which is ONLY loaded with IE8, and I'm having the same issue. When I load a page, the fonts flick back and forth a couple of times during the first few seconds. Then they're fine.

What I'm seeing isn't really a problem, but I thought I'd mention it just to get Dan stirred up.

Grrrr...

I'll look into it. Odd though since I haven't edited any .css files in quite a while.


Edited to add... It happened to me too! hmmmmm....
