FF 16.02 marinetraffic.com; page loads but map not displaying
5 Nov 2012: For about 3 weeks, the (javascript?) map area of marine traffic's site remains grey. All other parts of the site load OK. I can search for a port of ship and obtain a result in the dialog box but the map remains grey. The page and map loads fine in IE 9. The site's images are not blocked in the 'Options' section of FF and refresh/re-load actions do not resolve the problem.

Those images are tiles that come from Google servers like mt0.googleapis.com and mt1.googleapis.com
If you see those tiles in Tools > Page Info > Media then you should see them on the web page as well.
Did you try Safe mode to make sure that an extension isn't blocking the images?

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
- Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
- Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
- Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
- Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.image pref should be 1.
There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

Hmm - seems like a machine response to my post...
As I said I have confirmed that no images are blocked in the options for that site (via the current tab) and no add-ons are blocking the site. As said again, the rest of the site's images load correctly. it is only the map area which does not display. The map area itself is not listed as an image per se in the list within:
- Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
Hence the image (if it is an image) is not blocked. I have read the KB and other possible answers to the problem and they do not relate to my problem nor do they solve it.
Could it be a java problem?

Ahah! - apologies - hadn't gomne through the safe mode option - found an add-on extension (privacy fixer) which was causing the problem. all fixed now - thanks
