Since today https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/ doesn't load in Palemoon, stalls at a blank page, has worked with no issues for some time. Loads fine in Firefox. Only change is this weeks Windows updates, now on W10 1709 Home build 16299.431. Updated PM to 27.9.1 in case the W10 1803 change had anything to do with it but no different.
As always on this forum everybody else will say it loads fine...

Yes, Loads fine with scripts disabled. :lol:

With scripts enabled, page loads initiallly then turns white due to some JS black magic.

Override :
general.useragent.override.craigmurray.org.uk

with this string ;)

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/4.0)

it works (even with js and uBlock enabled)

The problem seems to be with this script:

Code: Select all

https://ajax.cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/scripts/dba9ecf7/cloudflare-static/rocket-loader.min.js

Error console (after script is allowed).

Code: Select all

Error: Permission denied to access property "handleEvent" 
Source File: https://ajax.cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/scripts/dba9ecf7/cloudflare-static/rocket-loader.min.js Line: 1

Thanks nightbird, override string added, now working fine. They must have changed something as it worked fine yesterday. By the way I already have Ublock, didn't work with just that.

You have to be blocking 3rd party scripts and frames with Ublock. It does not come out of the box that way. ;)
I posted a link to a tutorial video showing how to use those settings and what they do. Was very informative for me
as I was basically ignorant of how to use it beyond easy stuff.

Maybe it will work tomorrow without the override. :?:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I had an idea when i read what adesh wrote " Loads fine with scripts disabled".

I remembered that in the past, IE had "problems" with JS.
So i verified the page source and... bingo : IE7, IE8, IE9 are supported. ;)
Nowadays, this is rather "old" but it does matter for "our" problem.
So i tried an override with an IE string (IE 8 and 9), both worked. :)

edit : i tried with NoScript enabled / disabled and uBlock enabled, the site works.

That site loads for me with Safari, Opera and SeaMonkey, but not with Pale Moon. I have uBlock Origin installed in all the browsers and the same setup in it for all of them.

Pale Moon has a problem with a particular third-party script on this site. It's a problem that other browsers don't appear to have.

If you block third-party scripts in general (or just scripts from ajax.cloudflare.com) with uBlock Origin or any other blocker, Pale Moon loads craigmurray.co.uk properly.

Rocket loader is a cloudflare-side script (in beta afaik) -- there's obviously a bug or interop issue with it so I reported this issue to cloudflare.

Just to add my two cents worth.

That site loads just fine for me without any problems and I'm using 64 bit linux Pale Moon 27.9.1 running in 64 bit linux Mint 18.3 (Sylvia) Xfce. Just Adblock Latitude 5.0.1 enabled.

Not for me. I tried blocking ajax.cloudflare.com in uBlock Origin. It made no difference. I found that the page loaded if I blocked all javascript for it.

The rocketloader script is confirmed the culprit. Once it's been allowed to load once, it will be in your cache and the browser will pull the result from cache as a measure to try and resume the load that never completed. Only clearing your cache afterwards will allow the page to load again.

I have an open ticket with CF about this interop issue. It's been confirmed to be their script at the root of this, and we'll have to see what their engineering team makes of it.
Unfortunately on the client side we can't do anything about this right now. CF needs to figure out first what's wrong with their script.

Cloudflare has deployed a fix for this issue in their script.
If pages still don't load, you need to clear your browser cache to get rid of cached versions of their script, navigate to the problematic page again.
(Preferences -> Advanced -> tab Network -> [Clear now] button under "Cached Web Content")

Off-topic:
Good efforts, Moonchild! And that responsible behaviour of CloudFlare puts it ahead than many others.
