Frequent but Random Empty Pages

This issue seems to be limited to the iPad running iOS 5.

As I browse the forums, clicking on a link to view a forum or thread I am often (roughly 30% of the time) presented with a page that contains a heading and ads, but no FlyerTalk content. A forced refresh causes the page to display correctly, but it's annoying to do that as often as seems to be necessary.

A quick scan of recent threads in this forum didn't turn anything up; is anyone else experiencing this issue?

I'm having the same issue with MAC OS X and Safari. I have to refresh once and sometimes twice to get content to load. This issue started a couple of days ago.

I am using Internet Explorer and have seen this also approx. 30% of the time for 2-3 days now. Even with a page refresh, it sometimes takes 2-3 attempts for the page to display.

Thank you, Paul. For the record, I do not seem to be experiencing this issue in Firefox. I can't speak to IE, since I avoid it like the plague for all but applications that require it.

The same issue using Chrome. When I hit " back" I get a blank page with the FT heading but no content. I have to start over by going back to MyFT page.

I have noticed this too on my iPad, but not nearly 30% of the time.

I am experiencing this in IE, Firefox, and Safari. It seems to have gotten worse in the last 24 hours. I'd estimate 50% or more pages in any browser I use now requires a forced reload.

more on blank pages - recent tech change?

offhand, dont recall this happening many times if any before

very recently started seeing blank pages - not omni, not ipad

sometimes frequent/repeated

new bandwidth management or attack protection?

This is still continuing for me, both in IE and Safari. Does not appear to be fixed.

Well, I'm only seeing it on my iPad. Firefox 8 seems to be working normally for me.


(j/k. Of course we should change the title.)

I changed the title.

Tech has been apprised of this but they are having difficulty replicating the issue; any tech data you can give about your browser/version, exactly where this is happening, times it is happening, etc. would be helpful.

Thank you!
