Cannot view all aspects of LDS.ORG regardless of browser
When I pull up LDS.ORG in any browser, I cannot see much of the content. For example, SIGN IN on home page just doesn't display. The same thing happens regardless of which browser I use (Firefox, IE, Chrome, Opera) so I am assuming that there is some component missing or not functioning properly on this particular machine. Any thoughts on what might be going on?
Thanks.
Thanks.

What is your screen resolution set to? 1024x768 with normal font size is probably the minimum standard these days.

I guess I didn't explain the problem well enough. My resolution is set to 1280X800. I can see the entire screen it is just that certain parts of the website are not appearing. I have attached a screen capture. You can see that, for example, SIGN IN, does not appear. Easy solution is to use another computer but this is my "working computer" and I hate to transfer everything over. It appears that this problem exists only on LDS.ORG - not other websites.

Does that change after you've signed in? Note that you can sign in by going to Tools > Directory, for example. Then you will be signed in, and then your name should appear in the header. Does it?
Questions that can benefit the larger community should be asked in a public forum, not a private message.

This has happened to me before and I found I simply wasn't allowing enough time for it to populate. Sometimes it's pretty slow, and you're right, I also found the delay was not the same for all computers, even on the same LAN.bishoptaylor wrote:I did that and logged in OK but then clicked on the MENU button and this is what I see -which is essentially nothing.

Have you cleared the browser cache?

Do all those browsers share the same cache?
I know the site uses Javascript and maybe some flash. Updating Adobe Flash wouldn't hurt - on most people's machines it's usually out of date security-wise anyway.
