Intermittent problems loading blog, but only under Mozilla

  • Unknown's avatar

    The last few days I keep having intermittent problems editing and even reading my own blog. The browser (Mozilla) will freeze (“Waiting for frankbi.wordpress.com…” or “Waiting for s.wordpress.com…”) while trying to load whichever page it is. However, the problem doesn’t show up when I use a text mode browser such as Lynx.

    What is going on, and is there anything I can do to fix this?

    Have you tried other graphic browsers?
    Have you cleared cache and cookies in FF; updated to the latest version?
    Having problems with any other sites/pages?

    I haven’t yet tried other graphical browsers, but I flushed all private information, restarted Mozilla, and then tried surfing to another random blog (http://edwintcg.wordpress.com/), and I still get the same problem.

    I just loaded it fine in FF 2.0.0.16 (Mac), and there were some errors reported by web developer tool kit, but they are the errors reported on all .com blogs and do not cause issues, and I don’t seen any problems when I do a W3C validation.

    The “waiting for s.wordpress.com…” would indicate to me that it is a wordpress server issue or perhaps a internet network issue. Perhaps the servers are real busy or perhaps they are doing some maintenance on some of them. I suspect this is a temporary problem.

    Thanks… but I find it strange that I’ve been getting pretty much the same problem for the last few days.

    If you have no other problems with other sites, that narrows it down. And if several wp blogs give you the same problem..well. I’d check in a few other browsers, update to latest versions. Test logged in and logged out. It loads fine here, in firefox3, safari, opera and flock for mac.

    I have no problems in FF 2.0.0.16 either.
