CMS Made Simple Forums

I have several sites in CMSMS 1.9.4.2 that were recently moved by my host to a new server (Linux 2.6 running Apache, PHP 5.2.17, MySQL 5.0.92). After the move, I updated all CMSMS files to current. Now, the initial rendering of each site (i.e., the 1st visit of a page or 2 to the site) displays with little or no css rendering. Going to another page or refreshing the browser then renders all pages correctly. This happens on my Mac & Windows in Firefox 3.6.17...Safari 5 doesn't exhibit this behavior (that I have seen).

A few example sites that display this behavior:
http://www.bradgoode.com/discography/
http://www.steffaniegrogan.com
http://www.cherigerou.com

I'm at a loss to know why this is happening. Any ideas????

Hi,

I ran the validator for HTML, this could be the cause, just try it.

Line 12, Column 47: character "&" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data

…me="Generator" content="Site designed & maintained by ntegritydesign.com. All …

I did see the behaviour, strange indeed!

kind regards,
Jan

it's the www man! i had the same exact prob 1 day ago in new site. redirect all www requests to non www address in htaccess

Tried the redirect suggestion (thank you), but to no avail...every refresh of the browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari on Mac) is a CSS crapshoot...sometimes renders correctly, sometimes not.

On chreigerou.com you have a typo

#menuwrapper {
/* Fix for Opera 8 */
/* overflow: hidden; */
background-color: #4c8f61;
border-bottom: 1px solid #086425;
width: 770px.
}

See red dot. This breaks menu style on first call. Didn'T check other sites, but check for typos in your stylesheets.
