SOMETIMES ie 30% of time, not every time, when I click on a Wiki topic instead of the topic screen opening for normal viewing it comes out in a strange format. Doing a screen refresh MAY sort it - but often simply gives a page of code. Refreshing the screen again usually then clears that and I get the normal screen view.
What am I doing wrong/ what do I have to do to "sort" this
Example
There is a response today on the Moreton by-pass speed limit thread. I have looked at that thread before with no problem. However, today _Ste_ responded to a previous post and when I click on his post to open it then what I get is as Pic 1 below
A screen refresh then gives as Pic 2
A further screen refresh then gives the normal screen
This problem ONLY happens with Wiki - not with any of the other forums to which I belong (although they are usually php not ubb system). It has happened ONCE when using another computer attached to my home network. However, I do not use that computer very often so maybe it would actually occur more frequently if I tested it. I can't do that just at the moment because the machine is occupied with another long term job and I do not want to disturb it

5 Precepts of Buddhism seem appropriate. Refrain from taking life. Refrain from taking that which is not given. Refrain from misconduct. Refrain from lying. Refrain from intoxicants which lead to loss of mindfulness
I suppose the ironic bit is - the computer did the SAME with my own post above when I tried to open it !!!

I am using XP - recently done a FULL (clean) reinstall and the problem seems to have come after that.

I have had it (pic1) on a couple of occasions in the past, never pic2, i just assumed it was the site having problems, i go elsewhere and come back and its normal again, xp by the way.
God help us, Come yourself, Don't send Jesus, This is no place for children.
Hi pic 2 always happens to me on this site only, when i open some topics i get exactly what pic 2 is displaying, but just like you, it goes ok when i refresh the page, i really thought my lappy was infected but feel better now that i know its not! lol, im using Windows Vista home Basic.
Pic 1 also happens, never really took much notice of that pic until i finished my reply as i recognized pic 2 straight away so paid more attention to that.
