So i have been running into this problem with a lot of Wordpress sites lately, usually occurring when i am logged in as Admin, so i couldn't post here because no one would be able to view the problem. However, i just found a site that it happens on that doesn't require admin creds.
http://www.otisports.com/
When i visit this site in Chrome (Version 34.0.1847.137 m), it just displays a blank page. No errors, just the (what now seems standard) event.returnValue is deprecated. Please use the standard event.preventDefault() instead. warning. I have seen that warning signify problems on the site, but they are usually minor, not to the extent that the above URL displays. However, if i open an Incognito window and visit the site everything works perfectly and there is no warning. Does the Incognito window deal with webpages in a way that is so entirely different that it would cause something like this to happen?
I have been racking my brain trying to figure this out. Can anyone reproduce this? is it a bug in chrome?
EDIT: I just tried to open a bounty on this question and the EXACT same thing happened. In Regular Chrome, nothing happened when i clicked the start a bounty link and i saw various errors Undefined is not a function however in incognito everything worked perfectly. what gives?!
EDIT: Yes, i have cleared the cache, history, cookies, everything, and i still get the same errors. I cant even post a comment on this question because of errors...
I came across the same issue when trying to open evernote.com. It loaded successfully while using incognito mode in chrome. Let me share how I fixed this even though the original post is way too old. But maybe someone can find it useful.
I'm using chrome (Version 73.0.3683.103 (Official Build) (64-bit)) running on Linux Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS.
I tried disabling all extensions and clearing browser data/cache but nothing worked. PS: Disabling adblock previously worked for me. Yes, I stumbled over the same issue before and whitelisting evernote in adblock solved the issue. But it didn't now.
The following is what worked for me:
Open developers tools (CTRL + SHIFT + J).
Navigate to Applications tab.
Choose Clear storage from the side menu
Hit Clear site data button.
After reading the comments I dug into chrome and saw there was a bunch of extensions still sitting around that were definitely malware and I thought I had previously deleted. Instead of picking through them one-by-one, I just deleted everything, re-installed Chrome, and now everything works great!
I had the same issue. My application was working in Incognito mode and in Firefox but not in Regular Chrome. I even disabled all the extensions but no luck. I eventually cleared the Cached images and files because on developer console I found out that the regular chrome was still picking up the old file due to caching. So as soon as I cleared it, my app showed up like a rocket :)
Try removing any non required extension .
Specifically AdBlock
I resolved the problem post that.
Since on Incognito , extensions are disabled, hence page run as expected.
I resolved this unforeseen issue using following steps.
CTRL + SHIFT + DEL > Clear Browsing Data.
Cookies and other site data
Cached images and files
This is for Chrome Browser.
Open Console (Ctl+Shift+I) first.
Then under the application tab, you will find some options on the left, find out the application there, you will find it at the top.
There you will find Service Workers.
Under Service Workers, there will be three checkboxes. Select Update on reload checkbox and reload again.
I had the same issue after installing React-Sight Extention.
The Page hanged but not in the incognito mode.
Try deleting any recently added or junk extension.
Delete your cache.
That worked for me
I had a similar issue in chrome, in my case the problem was that I could log in to my university library's website only in incognito mode. After some digging, I figured out that Google Translate extension was set to automatically translate any page. When I turned that off and instead selected never translate that specific page, it started working in the usual mode as well.
This is rather an old issue but still happens. None of the solutions recommended here and there did not solve the issue in my case.
I somehow noticed this is related with a -some kind of- corruption on the user profile.
This is how I solved it:
Close all Chrome browsers.
Open a Google page on Chrome.
Sign-out from Google (rigt click your profile picture on a Google page, not on the Chrome itself), and sign-in.
If this doesn't work:
Close all Chrome browsers.
Right click Chrome icon and select Google Chrome.
Delete your Google profile on the "select your profile" page.
Close Chrome.
Open Chrome, sign-in.
uBlock Origin was the culprit in my case. Once I allowed the site in uBlock Origin, pages loaded correctly in normal Chrome.
I asked this question earlier but there was a typo in my post -not my code as the moderators (correctly) believed. I'm asking this again because the code appears correct.
I'm using php to build a link to files on our network drives. The link appears fine:
100212
If I click on the link in the browser, it doesn't work -nothing happens, no error etc..
If I cut and paste the following out of the page source and paste it into the address the browser opens it right up.
file://///192.168.0.199/public/data/thefolder/ineed/100000-100999/K100212
I've tried it in both Firefox and Chrome with the same results. I'm stumped. Thoughts?
Edit: I found out the link works in IE (v11) but it opens the directory in Windows Explorer instead of the browser as Firefox and Chrome do if I paste the link into the address bar.
My first thought was some kind of browser security issue but why would it work when pasted into the browser address bar but not work when the link is clicked on?
Yes, there are a lot of slashes -it's a network drive and I'm drilling down in a tree. I didn't design it I just have to deal with it...
Thanks for your time.
So, as Olly points out below -Links that access local/network file systems are intentionally disabled in both in Firefox or Chrome due to security restrictions - though it seems odd that both Chrome and Firefox allow you to access the same path through the address bar??

I have a dev site for a store here where fonts are not showing properly in IE10: http://darciekentvineyards.com.uswest.vin65dev.com/Wines
They work on the live portion of the site in IE10: http://darciekentvineyards.com/about
They also work in Chrome.
I'm not sure what's causing this or why there's a scrollbar on the menu. Does anyone have a solution?
This is caused by restrictions on cross-origin use of fonts, as you can see if you press F12 in IE and select Console from the IE developer tool, then open the dev site in the browser. There are many error messages in the consolte about resource loading failing due to cross-origin request.
The simple solution is to upload the fonts onto the dev site too.
www.mycomputercure.com works fine in all browsers except in IE. In IE it redirects to 404 page after loading the index page briefly. Appreciate any solutions in advance.
Thanks
Just a guess, based on examining the page's network traffic.
Internet Explorer executes HTML Behaviors (HTC files). No other browser does that. Your page has several 404 errors for HTCs. These usually appear right before other requests are aborted and the 404 page shows in IE.
I don't know what logic IE uses for retrieving an HTC file, but perhaps the omission of one purposely (or via a bug) causes the browser to deem the whole page to be "not found".
This thread on Microsoft's site sounds related and suggests other possibilities.
At minimum, start with fixing any 404s caused by the page.
This example to load a url in an iframe works. However when I change url to something like http://www.yahoo.com the iframe doesn't load antyhing
Here is an example side by side.
In Network tab of developer tools for Chrome, I see that request to Yahoo was cancelled. In FF it doesn't give any errors, just doesn't return any content. IE9 gives a message that It cannot display this content.
This happens in Chrome, FF and IE9 (I haven't tested previous versions of IE).
That is because Yahoo itself prevents this from happening.
It has been noted here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/9013722/476786
To see for yourself, try setting the source to http://www.google.com/ which won't work as well, but then try http://www.bbc.co.uk/ and that will work.
Possibly works as described here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/2896705/476786 using X-FRAME-OPTIONS
If the site hosting the webpage forces the use of a secure HTTPS connection, some browsers (chrome for sure) will require that all network resources use HTTPS as well.
Basically if your site forces HTTPS, try setting src="https://yahoo.com"
This won't solve OP's answer directly due to it being a limitation of Yahoo itself, but other people viewing this page might be experiencing this issue as a result of this (I was).
