Lo and behold, "https://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/1063987/1.gif" ...

How is this sort of thing allowed? Both browsers completely stoppedGob with CPU @ 75%.

No issues here. Loaded instantly. FF 55.0.3 on Win10.
Bad network connection?

Looks (sort of) OK in Chrome, but that animated gif is a nuisance.

No issues here with latest Chrome version.
Just scroll up till you can't see it?

 Ok so I don't seem to be able to login via MS edge? Chrome, Firefox and IE11 work but Edge is crapping out. The issue seems to have started today? (haven't actually login in edge since Friday)

It’s hard to believe a site run by and for programmers is so buggy! The layout is random (as mentioned in an earlier post, regards how messages are displayed), and sometimes the content is nicely centred on a full width page, and other times it’s full-width; sometimes the left menu (on discussion board pages) is its proper width, at others it’s squeezed into half an inch. The site is barely usable half the time.
Maybe you should call some experts in....

You must be looking at your screen through the bottom of a coke bottle. This is one of the best laid out and maintained sites on the internet. 47,000+ people online now are more than happy with it.

I guess I must be imagining it all then.

Rather than just posting a rant try explaining clearly exactly what the problem is. When does it happen, what browser (and version) are you using, is this on a PC, mac, tablet, phone etc? Get some screenshots and send them direct to Chris and he will take any action necessary.

Well, I did describe the issues, in this post and an earlier one. I suppose I didn't go into too much detail as I assumed I can't be the only one affected... maybe I'll try and get some screenshots in due course, but seems as though not all styles are being loaded, and/or user settings (cookies?) on all occasions. Mostly on IE11 on a PC.
(And please, please, don't tell me not to use IE, or you will really unleash a rant!)
Anyway, as I say, perhaps I'll try and collate a more detailed report...

It was more a set of accusations that the administrators here did not know the first thing about creating a website (read your original message again). As I said, if you have a problem then create a properly detailed description so the issue can be addressed. And lastly, it seems strange that of all the people who are on this site every day, you are the only one to have this problem.

Yes, it does seem strange.. and OK, I apologise for sounding ratty - frustration does that.. coming to use the site and finding it pretty much unusable... maybe it was down to the lousy broadband connection I was on until last week (finally got upgraded last week!) disrupting page downloads, as it does seem better this week. (Mind you, I can't be the only one on lousy b/b, and it has been only this site I've experienced this kind of thing on.) Well, we'll see....

Ad-blocker? Corporate firewall? There are plenty of ways for the site to get borked down-stream from anything the hamsters have control over. 
But from your original post, it sounds more like an issue with your cookies. Either they've grown too large, or there's a corrupt value, or something else is interfering with them.

No ad-blockers and only the default W10 (and router) home firewall - so nothing special. But yes, as I've replied to Richard M. (with due apology) O accept it's probably down to something my end... lousy broadband, maybe and yes, perhaps I should clear all my cookies and start over..

There are two issues I experience, mostly using IE11 on a PC, though I’ve also had them using Firefox. I keep myself logged in via a permanent cookie.
The first is regards the “Layout” dropdown at the head of message boards – options being “Normal, Open Topics, Open All, Thread View.” I prefer “Normal”, but somehow this is often not remembered, and discussions open in some other option – “Open All” seems to be the usual.
The other issue is that while normally pages render within an overall width that has a max value – something like a CSS setting: max-width: 1060px; sometimes I will open a page full width on my monitor (1920px) and rather than being constrained to 1060px the page is displayed right across the 1920px – with no left or right margin.
I guess I could get screenshots but really, I think the descriptions are clear enough - aren't they?
I have until recently been on a lousy ADSL broadband, but recently upgraded finally to fibre. Things are, I think, slightly better, though I have still experienced both issues since.
It seems as though not all resources (style sheets, cookies) are being read or downloaded correctly, somehow, on all occasions. Or perhaps they come down too late after the page has rendered. I dunno.
I have my IE settings to avoid caching as much as possible. There is a setting under Tools / Internet Options / Browsing history - Settings / Temporary Internet files to “Check for newer versions of stored pages” which I set to “Every time I visit a web page” rather than the default “Automatically”.

Is this happening always or only when you visit a page from a search result? One thing we do is force open all messages if you're coming from a search result in order to allow you to scan messages that may contain the keyword you were looking for. Previously readers would search, hit a page, then be puzzled they couldn't see the word they searched for. So we tried to make it clearer.

This is handled by the fixed|fluid links at the bottom of each page.
It should default to fixed. If you specifically set it to fluid then you'll get full page.
My only quick suggestion would be to try clearing cookies on whatever browser you see non-expected behaviour and then let me know if it happens again.
Do you share that browser with anyone else who might be visiting CodeProject?
cheers

Neither! It happens not always but often when I first open the site. Once I reset the drop down and refresh it seems to keep the settings.
Re the page layout width issue, this is just random on each and every page visit! Well, usually it's "fixed", but quite often it will suddenly decide to open "fluid" all by itself.
I have cleared the cache numerous times, and no - no one else touches this computer (on pain of death!)
Thanks for replying...

There was a potential issue with the forum settings that should no longer be an issue. That being said we've 'fixed' it before and it occasionally rears its head. The code itself is beyond simple: Load preferences (if none, use defaults), save preferences when something changes. The opportunities for something not to work are essentially nil.
And yet...
The fixed width / fluid width issue is, I'm suspecting, related. I just had the issue present itself a few minutes ago (after over a year of not seeing it) so I'm digging in again.
For the record there's a fixed/fluid layout option in the footer of every page.
cheers
