Using Firefox 21.0 on Windows 8/x64. I am experiencing some sites where Firefox displays an odd looking graphic but none of the UI that displays in Chrome or IE 10. I can re-create it for example by going to http://www.basspay.com. I'm stumped. I removed all plugins/add-ons. Started in safe mode. Deleted everything in history - all to no avail. Any pointers on where I might start to even look? It's almost the same response one would expect if javascript was disabled and there was no "noscript" fallback. Except javascript is enabled and this is a stock installation of Firefox without a single setting or config change.

hello, there is a serious error in the source code of the page (the image is embedded as images\splash.jpg instead of images/splash.jpg as it's supposed to be). apparently firefox is less error-tolerant in this regard than the other two browsers...

Hello Pynchros,

Try clearing your Java cache, and History.

If you're not sure how to do that go here. --> I'm a Link.

If you still have problems, and are running a 64 bit operating system you may want to install Waterfox instead of Firefox. If you do install Waterfox, you should update your plugins on the Waterfox Download page below.

going off of what philipp said here is what you get in the page inspector, it is a backward slash, when fixed it looks like the second picture

Well I apologize, I didn't fully investigate that. Well done, it seems this is more of a coding fault.

Disregard my previous post.

Thank you colbabomb.

I hope this solves your problem Pynchros.

Thanks for the prompt response. I was going crazy trying to figure out why this didn't work.

You can look this version of Slashy that I've modified to work in more cases (works for me in this case).

You can download this Firefox extension file by clicking the "Download This File" button without having to register and sign on to this website.

slashy is a little late to get there but it makes the page work now.

Hi David.

You have a problem with a missing clear:both rule for the DIV #container1 (div #topheader is floating) that causes all following content to get shifted to the right (there is a horizontal scroll bar).

Adding this "clear: both;" rule to the existing rules for #container1 should fix this easily.

You can add this rule here after in the #container1 section (line 176):
