Randomly some websites have started to not load properly. For example there may just be a white screen with the links and things from the website but they may not be in the right place, right font, etc, as if firefox is stopping the webpage downloading in the middle of it doing so. Another example is the webpage may appear to have finished loading but the text and links will be on top of each other and in the wrong places. I have tried reinstalling firefox and updating to the latest version but it has made no difference.

You may possibly have "No Style" enabled for the site you're trying to load. To check, hit the ALT key to display the text links at the top (unless you can see them already), then click View | Page Style. You should have "Basic Page Style" selected.

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
