The title says it all. I generally use my Mac to get online and today everything past www.thesamba.com/vw/ doesn't load. I only get a blank page. Funny, it works fine on my android cell phone, but I'm not going to waste much time typing on a cell.

I cannot explain this but no one else has reported anything, maybe someone else with a Mac can help?

It appears to be a Safari problem. I read something about Safari corrupting a certain preference file. I reset it and this site started working normally.

The problem is back! One page loaded and then the next page was blank and no pages load. I've fired up an old copy of Firefox to get here. I don't want to go through the reset again, as it tosses so much other content. This only seems to effect the "Forums" area, other parts (like the Classifieds) work normally.

Off to do a little testing...

When I inspect page content it only shows the header, no content. It seems to be an javascript problem as I have found the theSamba forums load normally when I turn javascript off. Of course that is problematic on many other web sites.
