LJ strikes again?

[owlmoose]

Is anyone else having weird problems with LJ? I can get in on my phone, but my computer is only loading blank pages. This has been happening since last night.

I will also be *very* curious to see whether this cross-posts effectively. ETA: Well, the cross-post link appears, anyway. Not that I can open the entry to check.

Yes, this entry showed up on my LJ Friendslist and no, I haven't been having any issues with LJ in the last week.

Hope this is helpful...

Thanks for the datapoint! I appreciate the fast response. :)

Just out of curiosity, what browser and OS are you on?

[jeanniemac]

Sorry I took so long getting back to you. We've been out all day. I'm using Firefox on a Mac laptop running Tiger.

Interesting that you can load LJ on your phone. 8^) All I get are blank pages with my laptop. Someone else who is getting blank white pages as well also noted that crossposting seems to be working. I wonder if the snafu is browser related. I'm using Firefox 3.x.

Very interesting! I use Camino on my laptop, which is based on Firefox, but my IPhone is essentially Safai. Between your feedback and Spindizzy's, it does sound like a browser issue. I wonder if they know.

Nothing's loading on Firefox for me, but *checks* it works on Safari, so I think it might just be the browser.

It is sounding like a browser-based problem. I'll have to check on Safari when I get home.

I haven't tried LJ on my laptop today but I was having problems with blank pages and much slowness quite regularly over the past week, especially over the weekend. I suspect that their servers are timing out during data requests somewhere in the chain of requests for building/returning a page. Thus, the blank pages...

Added: if it is a server problem, it will be intermittent and not everyone will experience it. I was connecting with safari and firefox and both would occasionally receive blank pages.

Hm, that does make sense, but if that's the case, it seems weird that I could always get in on my phone and never on my computer. Either way, it's working at the moment, so fingers crossed...
