Wayne Melia Posted December 19, 2015 Author Share Posted December 19, 2015 <p>Jeff; I'm not a registered user of flickr (yet), so suspect the forum would not be open to me. And there's a catch 22 of not being able to join if site won't render so I can find my way to the forum.... But Thank You for the quick answer. I have searched (general web search via Duck, duck. go) for +IE11 +flickr, and some variations, but no joy.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dieter Schaefer Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 <p>Wayne, what you see is flickr loading without the style sheets - I had the same issue a day or two ago. In my case, it was just firefox acting up - flickr loaded correctly in Chrome and after a firefox restart the site loaded fine too. </p> <p>I suggest you clear the browser cache and try again. And/or try a different browser. If you are running some browser extensions that block ads - disable them and see if that clears up the issue.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wogears Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 <p>Clear your browser cache and flush the dns cache. (ipconfig /flushdns).</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Melia Posted December 20, 2015 Author Share Posted December 20, 2015 <p>Thanks Dieter and Les. I have cleared the cache -browser history and temporary internet files in IE tools, and ccleaner. also ccleaner is set to clean dns cache. I cleared browser history and temporary internet files in IE tools, shut down IE, run ccleaner (including dns cache), and restarted the computer - all to no avail. Not using problem extensions. Don't have another browser, but getting one would be just sidestepping the problem (I think).<br> I'm sure it's my fault in some setting, or a lot of other people would be having issues. There's so many items when security and advanced settings are both included. I don't know where to look if I F12 into developer tools. If I know it's a case of style sheets not loading, maybe I can stumble on to a solution.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas J. Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 <p>Flickr has had so many bugs and "bad pandas" month upon month that you really don't know if it's you or them. The Flickr Help Forum is manned by Yahoo/Flickr attack dogs so they'll make it seem like you're a total fool for having a problem while they defend their badly designed website tooth and nail.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spearhead Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 <p>I've seen flickr support solve lots of problems. Unless someone can document their statement about "attack dogs" and all that, just sign up and use the support forum.</p> Music and Portraits Blog: Life in Portugal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Melia Posted December 22, 2015 Author Share Posted December 22, 2015 <p>It's OK again. Nothing I did. The matrix works in mysterious ways.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
