Ok, one more time because I like CNET

by HostileHosta - 11/1/11 2:35 PM

I've searched Google, I've tried the Chrome people, I tried in another forum, but SOMEBODY must know how to fix this: I have CNET as one of my homepages. I have 6 homepages. 5 or them work fine.

Every time I go to CNET tab the page has bounced to one of those tree pages that says it does not have the XML stylesheet. If I hit the back button on the browser, I go back to the correct page, but if follow any of the links on the CNET site, I go back to the stylesheet page, and have to crank it back one to see the page.

On a given day, I may hit 30 to 50 websites. I do not ever experience this on any other website in the known universe. Please, somebody, what's going on here?

Just to add to this a little bit when I posted this guess what? It sent me to the forum page the within seconds, whoops, back to a a style sheet listing the tree.

Running XP, Chrome.

1. Do you use NoScript (or other javascript blocker)?
2. What happens when you Shift+Reload the page? (forces reload-not-from-cache)

1. No script blocker on Chrome unless it is somehow built in. I used it when I was on Firefox but not now.

2. It changes some of the numbers on the "no style sheet page", but that's all.

Again, let me emphasize it is only on CNET.com that this is happening. No other page I go to has the slightest problem.
