New bug? Horizontal white background interrupts background image tiles after 1-2 pages

My site looked fine on Firefox (and all other major browsers), until just recently. Now Firefox interrupts the background image tiling, with a white, horizontal background bar the entire width of the page and roughly an inch long. What is up with this?

Chosen solution

Works for me on the site.

What gets selected if you right-click that white space and open the Inspector?


Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.

  • Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

core-el: I used the inspector, but wasn't sure how to interpret its' results. On the other hand...reloading the web page (Shift&Left Click Reload), did the trick! Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm not sure what was going on? My hope is that this is not also being experienced, by my site's users...

You're welcome.

If you recently made changes to the page then there may have been inconsistent files in the cache.

Your page isn't large enough to suffer from the bug(s) regarding divs or tables.
