Formatting broke in Google Chrome / Windows

If I am looking at any articles under Google Chrome, in Windows, the formatting of the content is all over the place..

It just seems to have started today. Has anything changed and are other people seeing the same problem. IE8 doesn't show any sort of content.

Its only on the actual article view, the main page and comments are OK.

Re: Formatting broke in Google Chrome / Windows

I'm getting a similar sounding problem, but with Firefox 7.0.1 and Windows 7. Layout seems fine in IE

We can't reproduce this problem. A colleague has contacted you by mail.

But if anyone else is seeing this, ping us.

Belated thanks, forwarded to devs.

Re: Formatting also broken in firefox 14

might be a networking thing... I noticed the corruption when in work going through that proxy (might be blocking certain elements or ads that are needed to layout the screen)

I should add not seen it happen recently so its probably fixed now.

Linux too

I'm using Mint Linux Cinnamon and am seeing lots of odd things - ad blocks on the RH extending past the edge of the "page" area, overlapping content etc.

Re: Linux too

FYI - pulled the ATI video card, and installed an Nvidea - problems gone.

I'll refrain ...

... from posting the obvious in response to the topic.

You are quite welcome.
