Our team has encountered a strange problem that happens when viewing our fully XHTML coded page in Firefox [2]: http://www.clips.co.il Our site loads and looks all messed up and has to be refreshed 1 time [f5] and all settles in place and looks fine. why do users have to refresh for the site to look ok on Firefox? how to solve it inorder for the site to load fine right away? whats causing this? we worked many weeks to make the site 100% FF friendly but this bug is a real pain. anyone has an idea what causes this? will be MUCH appreciated. even willing to send some money to his Paypal account
I was unable to replicate your issue. There was a slight stutter while loading, which I attribute (without knowing for sure) to reflowing the ltr and rtl text. It could also be due to the syntax errors. Fix those before going any further in your debugging. cheers, gary
I only have FF1.5 right now but also, no problems in loading although at first the left sidebar didn't load... it took a while. I didn't refresh but only took a look at the source and when I was done the page was fully loaded. Looked similar in Opera and IE6 4 Linux. I'd say, if you aren't checking in Safari too, do that as well. More than once, Safari puked because of some missing tag (changed something or added content after previous validation) while the other browsers acted like nothing was wrong. Safari for Windows if you don't have a Mac will do the job.
