The website I'm developing suddenly stopped working properly. The images on my Homepage appear sliced and in weird places (however when inspecting source and hovering over certain elements, the highlighted content seems to be in the right place), some hover on effects don't work and some text doesn't render.
Everything works properly in all other browsers except for Google Chrome. I cannot think of any other thing I've updated in the source code than executing svginjection plugin.
I uploaded my backed up files that used to work before, but the problem still occurs. It doesn't show up on every single computer, just on some (and I've checked it on multiple machines, both - Mac and Windows).
Just to clarify, I did clear the cache, I did check in the Incognito mode, I did restart my computer. None of these helped. I'm also 80% sure that problem only occurs on computers, on which this website was previously opened (the pattern I noticed after making around 10 tests at work).
Thanks for any help
Aight, so after going through all my files, trying to disable multiple options, etc... Everything is fixed now. If you do have similar problem, go through your css files and disable all webkit powered transforms and transitions, cause apparently enough is enough and if you have too many, Chrome just won't handle it. I managed to still reuse some of them, so... Must have caused some glitch in the matrix and that's why it all got messed up. For weirdly positioned images check z-index of parent container.

I'm working on a small website and I'm writing a website almost from scratch. I'm using Bootstrap 4 and I'm modifying only basic CSS.
Whenever I open the Chrome Devtools, the website completely flips out and it looks like it keeps reloading. The entire website only loads from localhost, however, the network tab keeps showing repeating requests to the saem assets, over and over again. The second I quit Devtools, the entire behavior stops. I've tried installing a cache killer, tried incognito, but the problems keeps appearing.
I'm also using Octicons, and what I have noticed is that when I manage to get the Devtools to at least stay focussed at the right part, the <i class="oi oi-chevron-right"> node keeps flashing in purple, indicating there is a change to that node. I can't open it and even just clicking on it won't help, the entire CSS keeps shifting in the inspector bar and it seems like something is making rapid changes. It appears that Chrome re-applies styling changes that I made a few days back, such as locally modifying the margin of an element.
I was able to work on the website just fine a few days ago, but even moving back in commits won't keep the problem from happening. I am starting to think it is a bug with Chrome, but I can not confirm this in any way.
Is there anything that is known to break Chrome's Devtools, that might explain this behavior, or is there a way to clear the cache of the Chrome Devtools specifically?
The "Changes" tab in Devtools reports that there are no changes, but the CSS I see on page makes me seriously doubt it. Removing the icons entirely does not seem to resolve the problem, so I think the issue lies elsewhere. Breakpoints are not triggered either.
I'm not sure but,
Have you checked the chromium extension program?
I have a site (http://www.iproconnect.com.au/) that for one user (that I know of) renders the home page with black areas in Firefox. These do not seem to be tied to CSS, as if I force a re-draw of an affected area (e.g. by scrolling areas in and out of the viewport) it sometimes renders correctly, and sometimes incorrectly but differently to the previous incorrectly. Also if I do this with the inspector open, no CSS seems to change, and hovering background URLs show the image downloaded correctly.
I can't reproduce this in other installations of Firefox (all running the same version - fully up to date). And this user has un-installed and re-installed with no change in behavior.
I don't even know how to debug this further, let alone how to solve. Any ideas greatly appreciated.
These two websites are exactly the same:
http://www.inandoutofwonderland.com
http://dev.zelencomm.com/inandoutofwonderland/
However, when I press F5 to refresh (or Command-R on Mac) the former website renders immediately and without any visible image loading, the page image does not even flicker or move in any way.
When I do this on the latter copy of the site, it goes to black, and all images disappear and visibly all reload from top to bottom.
The two websites are exactly the same in both files and database. I've tested this is Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Explorer both on Windows and OSX, and I have the same behavior everywhere. The two sites are on different servers, so I can only conclude this is some server setting I am unable to track down. The servers seem to have the same speed, it's just one makes the site reload its images on refresh while the other does not.
I have tried to add the "ExpiresByType" commands into the htaccess file on the 'slow' site but it does not seem to have any effect.
I would really like to figure out what the difference is so that I can make the latter website's server behave like the former and load its images up immediately rather than have the whole top-down rendering thing.
Thanks for any insight into this.
Background info: I'm working on a public facing website for our company. developing in VS2012, asp.net and vb.net, using some JS, some JQuery, and a decent amount of CSS.
Everything was looking great in our internal testing, until someone checked from home, where they only had IE 9. Suddenly, big chunks of text within expanding panels weren't being displayed, the bottom of the page was missing in most cases, some links that call javascript functions don't do anything... It's so random that the only reason I think they're connected is that it only happens in IE9 (or probably before, though no one has looked.)
I tried setting the standards mode to edge in the web.config. (tried setting it to IE10 as well, just to try) I've played with changing some positioning, heights in px instead of %, relative to fixed positioning, tried inserting the html5shiv, removing the gradients... nothing has changed. Everything displays correctly, until it doesn't display at all. When I was starting to see and research this last week, I thought I'd found an article somewhere that said there were limits on the CSS tags you could use in a page for IE9, but that number was WAY higher than anything I'm using, including both what's on the page directly, and incorporating the .css file. The only other clue is that it looks like at the bottom, where the missing stuff starts, I also lose the gradient from the page background (so just a block of all white, however if I play with the size of the window, sometimes I can get this block to slide down, and I can see another line or two that was originally hidden...
Has anyone had issues like this? The site works perfect in chrome, ff, IE10 and 11, several Linux browsers, opera, safari, from macs, pcs, and Linux boxes. everything except this old IE 9.
HELP?
Just a little hack fix I found, if anyone comes across this question looking for similar answers... I created a new css file implemented when IE9 browsers are detected, and I extended the min-height for the content of pages until every page displayed... the drawback is that on those longer pages, if the content isn't expanded, the footer still lies several scrolls down... but this only happens on the very content-lengthy pages, so while it isn't ideal, I guess it's good enough, if someone's ok with using outdated browser technology :/
For some reason, black boxes are displaying in random spaces in Chrome (latest build).
Some of these boxes are appearing outside of the main container, whereas some are appearing inline, covering content blocks. They appear randomly, usually after scrolling, and will often disappear when opening the inspector, hovering over elements, or scrolling down and back up.
For reference, there are some animations, box-shadows (which have been disabled with no luck), linear gradients, and position: fixed elements on the page, although this is not an issue with browsers other than Chrome.
This has been widely reported in user testing, although I have not been able to conjure up a fix. I am not sure if it is a CPU or graphics card issue, as the site is relatively lightweight and I am browsing with a new laptop with 16gb ram. My old Mac Mini, with 4gb of ram, does not produce this issue.
Any pointers would be most appreciated.
Update: This was a bug in Chrome and was fixed: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=142038
eddz filed the issue at crbug.com/new and over 40 people starred the ticket to follow along. It led to a few separate fixes in Chrome by the engineering team.
I had this issue with a website that was using transformZ (0) to force GPU rendering. When I removed this style the issue disappeared
This isn't an answer, but if you are able to somehow reproduce it maybe later on down the road:
Make a copy of the page locally, or anywhere, set the base href to the main domain, now start removing css links and js scripts from the bottom to the top until you don't experience the behaviour anymore, if you get to that point then the last script/stylesheet you removed is the culprit.
If you find the culprit file, now try finding the culprit line/section.
If you don't get to that point, it may be the browser, but it doesn't sound like it is.
It may also be linked between scripts/stylesheets and/or accidentally inherited.
We had experienced this weird blocks too on our website. In past we was using transitions, transitions was reproducing another bug "weird lines" randomly appeared on page and dissapear during scroll.
Now we start using transformX-Y, may be in some places Z too. And we have got this hell bloack blocks.
It seems something wrong in Chrome with transfom + transition animations. May be this bug appear when too much blocks animated at one time?
FF works fine.
I encountered these same boxes. For me, the problem was that I was using mp4 videos, which are deprecated in chrome, instead of webm videos.
I think is related to the GPU I had the same issue on my website. And it stopped happening when I turned on the Metal Rendering flag.
My website renders back bgs randomly while scrolling. It is really heavy on videos and animations and looks like chrome has so little GPU available that graphic intensive website doesn't work correctly on blink. I noticed that when chrome used webkit those issues didn't happen.
I this is a blink render issue.
