I read B3d at work and in the last couple days the main B3d site continually reloads itself prior to finishing the initial load. I read the site from home (IE6/W2000) and have no problem.

I am behind a firewall/proxy at work of an undetermined type.

I can directly navigate to the forums index and everything is fine at work.

What gives?

Does it reload after then entire page is loaded or what??

The only offending code I can find is this

<td valign="middle" nowrap="nowrap"><a href="profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=136"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/lang_english/icon_profile.gif" alt="View users profile" title="View users profile" border="0" /></a> <a href="privmsg.php?mode=post&u=136"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/lang_english/icon_pm.gif" alt="Send private message" title="Send private message" border="0" /></a> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!--

if ( navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf('mozilla ') != -1 && navigator.userAgent.indexOf('5.') == -1 )
document.write(' ');
else
document.write('</td><td> </td><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"><div style="position:relative"><div style="position:absolute"></div><div style="position:absolute;left:3px;top:-1px"></div></div>');

//--></script><noscript></noscript></td> in which the javascript directly writes to the document which may force your browser to relayout the entire page. Get your work to upgrade their browser or switch to a mozilla/firebird :). Standard operating enivroments suck :/ for everyone but tech support.

Upgraded to 6.0. No problems now.

BTW, it never actually loaded the page. It maintained a gray blank screen. I watched the progress bar show some items loaded and then it would jump to 100% and then start over.
