For the last few weeks the Home Depot Canada site is rendered incorrectly with lots of extraneous code being displayed. If I go to this sample link:

https://www.homedepot.ca/product/tremclad-rust-reformer-340-g-aerosol-spray-paint/1000140398

What I see looks like this (same image is attached below):

All other pages from that site behave in a similar way with Firefox, making it unusable. Other browsers handle the website without a problem. Since Firefox is my primary browser this is a pain. Any assistance appreciated. Thanks.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

While you are in safe mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.

The settings already allowed sites to choose their own fonts so that didn't apply. But the tip to disable hardware acceleration seemed to fix things. Thanks!
