Odd behavior on Craigslist

Post by randavis »

On "https://kansascity.craigslist.org/search/tla" I usually see a black page when clicking on a post with multiple images. If I click on the ABP icon and click " open blockable items" the page will then show correctly. I submitted a report at "https://reports.adblockplus.org/0b0b2ba ... b=requests". I am unsure what causes this.

use only easylist (disable fanboy ultimate) and do your tests. Still happens ?

After disabling fanboy ultimate and using easylist by itself, I still have the same behavior.

- clear cookies + cache (at least for craiglist)
- repeat your test first disabling all your other addons, keep only ABP enabled
- in your report I can't see the applied filters and the screenshot just shows correctly the images
- if still happens submit another report enabling all the tabs in the report (and keeping the other addons disabled)

Here is the second report https://reports.adblockplus.org/0a8ae6d ... 74#tab=all
The browser acts the same as before.

If I resize the window, the page will render correctly. I am beginning to think that either my profile is corrupt, or the installation of firefox is borked.

I sure hate to rebuild my profile, as I have several customizations. That is probably where the problem is.

yes, I guess the profile is somehow corrupted, you should first create a new profile, install only ABP there and test again.

I created a new profile and the craigslist pages load correctly.

I am going to say that a corrupt profile was the culprit.

Thank you for your time and assistance.
