Anyone else have this problem?

wharvey May 6, 2009 11:29 pm

I just checked out the United Forum... I am seeing all the threads no problem.... you are just SPECIAL.... :)

AndyTLe May 6, 2009 11:34 pm

Happend to me on the DL forum and ironically when I headed over to Technical Issues to inquire, it happend here too. Seems to have resolved itself for me. But MikeMpls saw it too. So it is not just you. I'm on IE8.

It's not consistent, happens in some forum for a while, then not. Sometimes it happens when you're reading a thread or looking at someone's profile.

What's happen is that certain blue texts (2 or 3 of them) are changed to white font on white background. If you drag your cursor over everything, they become readable & you can navigate.

It appears perhaps something is corrupting the stylesheet.

MatthewLAX May 7, 2009 12:25 am

I can see the UA page again.

PhlyingRPh May 7, 2009 12:28 am

Happens to me intermittently too. In addition, when I am in a thread, I sometimes cannot see the member name/info for individual posts. I am using Google Chrome. Someone needs to get on this ASAP.

Happened to me too.. At first the entire airline FF pages has no text.. then the TSA threads.. Then the FF pages went back on.. Still waiting on the TSA threads..

Not close to being fixed. Still getting it in all forums about half the time. :mad:

Tanic May 7, 2009 10:16 pm

I have been getting this problem intermittently since yesterday. Using MacBook G4, it occurs on Safari, Firefox, and Opera. Missing text is getting more constant now.

What's interesting is that here in the technical forum (at least I think that's what it is. Can't see the title) all the posters names are missing except yours. Big red letters. Only yours.

robhakari May 7, 2009 10:24 pm

yup... been having the same issue intermittently for the past 24 hours, and am having it especially bad right now. have to ctrl+A to view stuff.


i guess this will help me study for my contracts final tomorrow though, so i guess you can keep it messed up for a bit, lol.

MatthewLAX May 7, 2009 10:26 pm

Now all pages on FT are looking like my screenshot in post #1.

Indeed.. I've tried browsing the FF page, Main page, it seems everything is affected..

JIMCHI May 7, 2009 10:46 pm

Same problem here. It has not been fixed. I usually use Firefox. When I used IE, the headers did come up (at least once).

PhlyingRPh May 7, 2009 10:46 pm

Yeah, mine's buggered again too.

Yeah, I can't see it the color but, it was disappear the color white. I think tech supports need to get fixed the text. So it will be change it back the color to blue. So I think it doesn't good enough for me at all. So please try ctrl + A on your keyboard and it will read it for you.

aisleorwindow May 7, 2009 11:04 pm

Currently having the same issues on both IE and Mozilla.

MikeMpls May 7, 2009 11:06 pm

Happening again, NW & DL forum home displays are hosed, tech issues is OK, at the moment "show thread" seems to be working for me everywhere.

Everything was fine during the day today. But is happening to me again too.

RS250Racer May 7, 2009 11:27 pm

I had problems last night, ok today but now issues again... :confused:

wendySFO May 7, 2009 11:30 pm

Same thing just happened to me for the Hilton page, but UA page looks fine.

Saw something similar yesterday that the clickable text (such as "private message" and user handles) were blank.

Romelle May 7, 2009 11:49 pm

Just a couple of minutes ago I started having blank patches where text should be - poster names and other places. It cleans up if I jump out and back in again, but soon gets spotty.

And the "Trick it...Negotiate" thread seems to have vanished.

Was fine during the day today when I was on several different times.

Romelle

I'm on a Mac OS X 10.5.6, Safari 3.2.1, and Comcast if any of that makes any difference.

Same here.

But I don't have a problem reading black text...just the blue on white...it comes up blue on white.

I thought that the problem was fixed... :confused:

I'm on an HP laptop, running XP with IE 7 if it's any help. Haven't tried looking at the site in Firefox or Opera, which I have as well.

tonerman May 8, 2009 12:52 am

just saw the same thing a few seconds ago when i clicked on "new posts"

PTravel May 8, 2009 12:55 am

I'm seeing it now, too. Same problem with New Posts, as well as when I went to a specific thread -- all the names of the posters were missing.

Off-topic for this forum, but definitely a FlyerTalk question. I'm trying to guess the location of your wallpaper. Is that Budapest?

DesertNomad May 8, 2009 2:19 am

I am seeing category pages ok, but the main page in front is all white text where it should be blue. Mac OS X w/Safari

KathyWdrf May 8, 2009 2:39 am

I'm glad it isn't just me, I guess. :eek:

As noted by others, the problem comes and goes.

Moscow.

Looks like the problem is fixed today! It was entertaining trying to read the posts by highlighting the invisible text.

Bingo! You're absolutely correct!

It happened again a while ago.

It's very intermittent, but it's only happened to me in the evening hours.

HereAndThere May 8, 2009 10:07 pm

Still messed up. Worked okay when I checked earlier in the day, but missing text now. What gives????

General_Flyer May 8, 2009 10:11 pm

Seems like every night there's a gnome tickling the system.. :p

AndyTLe May 8, 2009 10:13 pm

Acting up again.
