Why php page keep loading ?

Question

I am running php 5.2.6 with apache 2. On my localhost, some pages keep loading forever with Firefox. Konqueror works fine. From another computer using Firefox works as well. I looked at the network with ethereal and 200 ok is send and no more data is transiting.

any ideas ? Thanks

Answer 1

The forever loader could happen for a number of reasons. My first guess would be that an embedded flash is to blame, or that you are trying to load an image or another script that is nonexistent. In any case, it is difficult to give you any advice without the source code.

Also try using firebug to see what is being loaded.

If all else fails try to restart firefox, it can be up to some very strange things from time to time :)

Answer 2

Misuse of document.open/write is another possible cause of ‘loading forever’. Impossible to say without seeing some code though.
