As a quick intro, I'm not sure what the best way to phrase/tag/etc this question is, especially as it's so not really reproducible so I would appreciate any input from the stackoverflow community.
On a couple of different WordPress websites I help manage, I occasionally see HTML link elements overflow their normal inline position - the link text overlaps any text after it, almost like the link is absolutely positioned. However, the links are statically positioned and inline as normal.
The big problem with this is that it's not consistent and I've not been able to reproduce the problem. This makes debugging and tracking very difficult. I work mostly in Chrome on Windows 7/10 but I have had reports from clients seeing it in IE and occasionally in Firefox (all on Windows I believe).
In addition, when I have been able to use the Chrome developer tools to debug this, the problem resolves itself if the browser window is resized or if almost any link css properties are changed. It's as if the browser draws the page wrong the first time and when it's forced to redraw the elements, it does it right the second time.
Is anyone else seeing this problem? Does anyone have any ideas what would be causing this and why it would be so inconsistent?
I've not been able to get a screengrab of the issue happening as it's not possible to replicate but I may update this question if I manage to capture it happening any time soon.

On my website http://uus.diamedica.ee/et/tooted/veterinaaria/6 is having strange 1px graphical glitches in and around the red menu bar, that only occurs in MS edge. It's like small bits are bitten out of the menu ribbon, thus making it look uneven. I've tried changing fonts, backgrounds, margins, paddings, etc. And nothing seems to make it go away. I've tried different zoom levels, but still the same after refresh.
Funny thing is, if you hover the menu items, then some of the bugs go away. Is anyone else having similar problems in MS edge and knows what´s causing it? Image below.

Somehow i was able to fix the problem (at least in the computer that it appeared in the first place) by giving .menu-ribbon position relative, z-index 2000 and bottom value -1px. The issue should be still available to see in the draft version for those who are interested, http://design.imago.ee/Diamedica/html/index3.html is the url, open it up and hit refresh once after you´ve first loaded the page. At least im still seeing it in the draft version.
I also try to make a test by normally visiting the site in Edge.
Site looks correctly without any issue.
Below is my testing result.
Let us know, If there is anything that we are missing.
We will again try to make a test to reproduce the issue.
Are you working with low memory or with so much load on Edge?
Try to close all other site and open your site and check whether you can produce the issue or not.
I've been having small issues with Chrome for quite some time now, and although I have discovered several Stackoverflow threads with similar issues I simply cannot find a fix.
The issues are as follows:
Certain elements borders appear as 1px (when in reality they should be 2px) and only fix themselves if I zoom in and out of the page, or Ctrl+A highlighting everything.
Other elements move slightly (either the element as a whole, or the text within them) when I hover over it.
Text also fails to appear sometimes and only reappears if I hover over a nearby element.
The issues are specific to Chrome, and I understand opacity (something used widely throughout my project) can be an issue with the browser. I found several threads that cited transforming, positioning relatively etc as solutions but I have had absolutely no luck. Sometimes when I load the page these issues don't exist and the elements appear normal (minus the text disappearing, that's pretty much a constant).
I've attached a video so you can see the issues first hand, but I am unsure what code I should attach. If there's a specific elements code you would find helpful to see I will happily upload it here. I can also send page files if that helps, but I'm not sure if it fits within the rules here.
Anyway, here's the video: http://sendvid.com/uvq3gpzo
Apologies for being so vague, as I know that's not particularly appreciated around here. I just have no idea where the issue lies and thought someone may have had something previous beforehand.
Thanks for taking the time to look into my problem and any help would be much appreciated.
I was wondering if anyone has ever come across this issue before? I loaded up Chrome today and for some reason the entire left hand side of the elements section is broken.
I can navigate down using the keyboard arrows and see the breadcrumb selectors change (as shown in the picture) and for some reason the top of the document seems to display (but looks very odd indeed), but anything below the 'if greater than IE8' doesn't show whatsoever.
Has anyone ever experienced this before? Am i better reinstalling or launching a support ticket?
After some changes to our site, we are seeing that when certain pages are loaded, the page quickly changes width. This occurs every time on webkit browsers Chrome and Safair, but only rarely on some other browsers.
I have not been able to produce the effect at all on Firefox on Windows, Firefox on Mac, nor IE9 and IE11. It seems to rarely occur on IE8 and IE10. I have not found a pattern yet that causes it to appear on IE8 and IE10.
To understand what might be causing this, it would be good to know if certain styling attributes take an initial value while the page is loading but them assume some other value by the time the page is fully loaded. This could explain what is happening.
I should add that this problem developed after some changes which "should" not have caused this issue. Basically having to do with adding URL rewriting to eliminate duplicate pages. Clearly some side effect is operative.
At the moment we only have the code on development servers, so it would not be that easy to actually see it right now, although that is the obvious first question from a responder. So at this point, the question is more "what generically causes pages to reformat under Webkit."
UPDATE: the problem seems to be traced to Google Translate. When I remove that from the page, the problem goes away. Put it back; problem comes back.
Oddly, it mostly impacts Chrome! IE10 and 11 are exempt, and with even earlier IE versions the problem is much less.
I can readily demonstrate the temporary widening of the page just by reloading the page.
I experimented with trying to put the div containing the translate div instead a container div and setting some attributes on that. So far I have not found something that mitigates the problem.
We have suppressed Google Translate recently because it started adding other junk to the bottom of the page. That other junk is gone but we will continue to suppress it due to this new jumpiness.
I believe there is some clever way to contain the issue, but have no more time for it.
I have confirmed that the issue is definitely caused by Google Translate being on the page.
I'm having some CSS issues that seem to only occur in chrome. The site in question is liveinthelead.com, and it's still being worked on so if you notice any other strange problems feel free to let me know, I won't be offended. My main problem is this though:
In all of the browsers I've tested except for chrome the site looks fine. However, in chrome, on the main page, the middle post in the three-post divs are shifted down about 20px. But when I open up the developer interface, they shift back to where they're supposed to be! Maybe it's just a local problem, but here are some pictures of what I'm talking about. If you don't experience the same issue then maybe it's just something weird going on with my computer. Cheers.
When I initially load the page
After I open the developer console
One thing that I noticed is that in your div#three-post you set float:left to div.member1 but not to the remaining div.member2 or div.member3.
That's where I would start investigating the problem. Maybe you should set the remaining two divs to also float left. You may need to clear them afterwards too.
For the sake of convention — and so that you don't encounter this confusions again — use IDs for selecting specific elements, e.g., member1, member2, member3, and use classes for selecting multiple elements that should share the same attributes.
I'm unable to replicate on Chrome 15.
=\ could be a good thing! Try another computer!
