No News Makes for Quick Non-Reading

Post by John Liebson »

Windows 10 21H1 (OS Build 19043.1165) Fx 91.0.1 (64-bit)

https://www.toledoblade.com/

It is not that I necessarily want to read about Toledo, but I do occasionally get a link to this newspaper from my news feeds, and all I see is the header and one entry, "Contact Us" that actually does anything. Starting Fx in Troubleshoot Mode does not fix what ever it is that keeps this site from being of any use; it does work with MS Edge.

Don't you just hate it when someone tells you this?
Works fine here! Scrolls through to the bottom.
Did not click any links.

Clicked on a menu link (under 'Home') and it loaded. Site seems to load OK.

Works fine here too, but only after allowing JavaScript to run.

Very curious: I have four Fx profiles, one that worked until Proton appeared, a second that had lost the + sign for tabs, a third created two days after the second one and which restored the + sign, and a fourth that I labeled test (and don't recall why I created it.) I started Fx using all four profiles, and with none of the did The Blade work properly. It is as though there is some unknown setting in Windows 10 to protect me from reading news from Toledo, Ohio.

Reported, with screen shot.

======
I should have reported that others do not have the problem. I just read one comment that the person could not reproduce the problem, and apparently the report has been closed. So much for that
