For the last 2/3 years I have been able to see and use the maps at Windfinder.com via Pale Moon. But for the last week or so it appears to access the site, but doesn't display the weather map. It opens a page which shows the advert bar across the top of the page, but the map area is totally blank.
I have tried with all add-ons removed, but get the same result.
I have searched the web and this forum, but got no hits.
I can still access the site and zoom the map with Firefox and MS Edge.
Can anyone here suggest a reason/solution to this problem ??.
Thanks in advance, Leo.

Please report this to the website owners.
Their CSS has the map end up with a height of 0, which means it's completely collapsed and not visible. I manually edited the CSS on the live site to set a height and the site works perfectly otherwise.

If you're using uBO, you can apply these rules, as a temporary workaround (until the webmasters have fixed the issue):
There's probably some other elements that needs repositioning too, but at least, the rules above seems to take care of the obvious ones!
Code: Select all
windfinder.com##.map-container:style(position: fixed !important;)
windfinder.com##.mapconfig:style(position: fixed !important;)
windfinder.com##.site-header:style(position: fixed !important;)

Thanks for the rules.
Just FYI, It's also possible to accomplish this, independent of one's adblocker, with userContent.css (that's found in your chrome folder), or with Stylem :
Code: Select all
/*WINDFINDER.COM: DISPLAY-ISSUE WORKAROUND*/
@-moz-document domain("windfinder.com") {
.site-header, .mapconfig, .map-container {position: fixed !important;}
}

In fairness, an advertisment blocking extension shouldn't be concerned with custom user stylesheets in the first place.

It's a tool. It might not be its primary purpose but it is a primary function of it. How you decide to use it outside of ad blocking is entirely up to you. Since most people have adblockers and quite a few less people have stylem or know how to deal with user*.css, it's a valid suggestion to make.
