Browser: Chrome
Headache Inducing Issue; When clicking links to jump to new pages, my screen flashes white. Started happening about a month ago... Didn't think anything of it.
Call me crazy, but I don't remember this happening in the past. And this isn't something that happens every single time. I can't give you a ratio, but every once in a while the screen does indeed stay black when going to a new page.
Anyone seeing this? Any way to fix it?
I hope this doesn't turn out to be another quote button thread

I have Chrome as well and this happens on every website. It's not B.net
-
Yeah I'm getting the white flash very frequently.
-
It's happened to me somewhere around 10 times. It has to do with the background image, with the star-things. I can't wait until we get the regular Blue back. [Edited on 12.13.2012 4:34 PM PST]

Something similar happens to me on occasion when Bungie.net renews my XBL session; I'm momentarily redirected to the XBL sign in page, then back to Bungie.net when the authentication is complete. This usually happens to me when I'm visiting BNet from a new tab / browser session, and not so much from one BNet page to another, but it's still something to watch for.

Are you talking about viewing from your phone because that happened to me as well with the standard browser it came with. I have since switched to firefox and the white flash, which I think is the background of the site loading then the dark foreground loading, stopped happening.

Bungie is taking the rods in your eyes to go fishing.

I've been using firefox nightly (for retina support of course) and the new Javascript engine is so much better that firefox would be my number one browser on any other computer, BUT after using safari on Mac I don't think I could go back, It works like it's suppose to, is fast and looks nice. I've also tried out IE 10 and would say the same about that (besides the unfriendly UI) but keeping it windows 8 only is a buzz kill, Chrome is nice, but your stuck with google breathing down your neck and there are a few backend webkit issues that they haven't ever back ported to the main tree of webkit which hurts the linux development of it.

Yah it's just Chrome. Does it for me. I don't mind it though.

I recommend strategic blinking.

For regular non-work browsing, I tend to use IE 9, mostly because it is fast and I feel like Chrome is spying on me. And Chrome was never the worst browser ever. That title has always been held by all IE versions below 9. They suck, and nobody should use them.

Firefox is good except for it causes my laptop to freeze up every time I use it now. It has turned into what IE was for me. [/quote] The thing about google chrome is don't make or browse on a google/youtube account and you should be fine. Also disable cookies on all sites and approve them for sites like Bungie.net. I think Google's privacy infiltration is exaggerated a bit but avoidable if you you don't give them more info. Also the next google chrome update will have more opt-out and opt-in features for advertising tracking and what not. [Edited on 12.12.2012 9:43 AM PST]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] dazarobbo Firefox has no debugging utilities out of the box.[/quote]I never use them, but I think [url=http://i.imgur.com/RBEQR.png]these[/url] are out of the box. Plus, the Get More Tools button takes you to their tools collection.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] evilcam Haha, DMG's eyes hurt. What a wimp.[/quote]I fully blame Bungie.net for the Migraine I was experiencing at the time of posting this thread. I also blame you for the broken heart I've had for years.

If you're paranoid that Chrome is spyware, why not use Chromium instead? It's open source! For all you non-techies, Chrome is built atop the Chromium Project. [Edited on 12.11.2012 11:14 PM PST]

I've coped with that for a long time. I need an IE with Chrome's UI. [Edited on 12.11.2012 10:17 PM PST]

Obviously you can pick up Firebug, Venkman, FiddlerHook, etc... (which is probably what you're referring to) but Chrome's tools include most of these as standard now through Developer Tools. In fact, using it with Wireshark to debug WebSocket connections is a breeze. Even though I'm sticking with Firefox for regular browsing, I'm pretty convinced this is one area Google has one-upped Mozilla in.
