Downloads page not loading properly?

[jx233]

Is downloads page supposed to do this?

I think this is a bug or something.

I'm browsing on IE6 btw.

Can someone explain why the downloads page is messed up like this?

It's not really a bug, but I will try to fix it. It's more of an issue with IE6: the browser is older than dirt now and doesn't render CSS properly. The page shows up fine in IE7/8 and nearly every other browser.

On a separate note, may I ask why you are still using IE6? It is very outdated and not secure, especially since Microsoft no longer releases updates for it.

because it came preinstalled with XP? XD

Oh, there was a patch online that fixes this issue.

I appreciate the bug fix yet to come. Thank you.

And concering IE6, believe me or not, but IE6 operates very well and fast on my PC compared to Firefox (which lags and freezes) and Opera (which has installation problems). IE7 has the "not responding" bug on so many sites I visit, so I guess I have to stick with IE6. :sad:

Firefox lags and freezes, sometimes, it sometimes cannot connect to certain websites.

I have never had that problem at all.

ditto

I do have one of the latest Firfoxes, it's wierd that on my PC it has problems with certain websites (especially PHP coded ones I noticed).

jx233, Did you update to 3.0.10, or have a PHP/ad script blocker installed that might be miss-configured?

 

[jx233]

I do not have adblocker installed. The only thing I have that blocks ads is Trend Micro. maybe it could interfering with Firefox?

My Firefox is 3.01.0 like you said and default configuration, so maybe its just my PC that is bad with Firefox or my firewall intering.

I guess I'm stuck with IE6 as my solution.
*sigh*

You could always try Google Chrome, its all I use on my xp machine.

PHP Is a server-side executed programming language -.-

don't see why it would give you problems :X

Also, try updating Flash player if you have it installed. Perhaps you have an older version and it isn't playing nice with the more recent browsers...

I have had issues with php pages with firefox in the past, firefox wanted to download them, not display them.

 

[Darkchild]

never had that o.o
though I still think the problem would be server side

I have Flash Player 10, the latest one. It doesn't cause interferences at all.

MforMature, Maxconsole, and other PHP sites don't do well with the FireFox installed on my PC.

Myn works like a charm even when its a BETA...

maybe try the 3.5 BETA 4...
