The Atlantic doesn't display bottom of Web pages
Posted: 2022-09-17, 07:36
On the website The Atlantic, when stories are clicked on, the entire story is loaded. When you get to the bottom of the story, additional material is loaded. This material consists mostly of additional numbered, ranked stories from The Atlantic. In PM, this second load never happens.
For example, here is the output of the end of a story in PM:
Here is the end of the same story in another browser (Edge, in this case), after it has done the second load:
The display goes down to 10 stories, and then shows a useful site directory after that.
PM exhibited the proper behavior until sometime in the last few weeks or so; then it broke. Apparently The Atlantic changed something on their website.
Meanwhile, The Atlantic does not display many pictures (possibly most pictures) properly when using PM. For example, here's a picture from the story What Do Dogs Know About Us? displayed in PM:
And here's the same image displayed in Edge:
In the PM image, although the image itself is blank, all the standard right-click context menus are present and do the right thing. For example, if you click on "View Image" in the right click context menu, PM loads a page consisting of the proper image on a dark background.
Please note that The Atlantic is a subscription website that allows a few free articles per month. As a result, nonsubscribers have to be careful with the number of articles they load.
