Websites look wrong

Problems viewing a website can be caused by many things. The website may not following Web standards, or it could be related to your browser settings or configuration, problematic extensions or programs that are blocking web content, or a Firefox/Mozilla Suite bug. More information can be found in the following articles:

• Images or animations don't load
• Website colors are wrong
• Error loading some websites
• Error loading any website
• Other issues

Other solutions:

• In Firefox, go to Go to "View -> Page style" and change "No Style" (in Mozilla Suite, "View -> Use Style and change "Basic Page Style") to whatever is there if it's not already checked.
• Clear your cache and cookies in Firefox "Privacy" options (under "Cache" and "Cookies" ) or in Mozilla Suite preferences (under "Advanced -> Cache" and "Privacy & Security -> Cookies -> Cookie Manager").
• The page may require cookies or popup windows. Enable these features in Firefox options under Content (Web Features in 1.0.x) or in Mozilla Suite's preference settings under "Privacy & Security -> "Popup Windows" and "Cookies".
• Make sure an extension or installed program isn't blocking page content such as JavaScript or Java and make sure these are enabled in your browser options and preferences

If the website doesn't work in Firefox or Mozilla Suite by design, the best long term solution is to respectfully ask the website developer if they can make their page work in Firefox/Mozilla Suite. For help on doing this, see the Tech Evangelism project page.

Possible solutions for website developers

• Ensure your code completely or nearly validates to W3 specifications. Use the HTML Validator and the CSS Validator to find errors in your website.
• Check the JavaScript Console for errors and warnings.
