Firefox 4 is not loading Travel channel contest. It goes to a blank page.
my firefox 4 doesn't seem to be loading Travel channel's contest. all I see is blank white page. It does seem about to go to the contest correctly when it suddenly goes blank. I am not sure what is going on. Don't know if I need to update anything or not.

Assuming http://win.travelchannel.com/ is the site you're talking about:
I have not found a solution, but I can give you a couple different temporary fixes and perhaps narrow it down for someone who comes across this with more knowledgeable about how Firefox 4 loads pages and deals with Javascript and/or CSS errors.
Fortunately, this doesn't seem to be Firefox 4's fault per se, but rather that page's Javascript (or maybe CSS?).
Temporary Fixes:
- Disable JavaScript settings and preferences for interactive web pages, and you should be able to see the page.
- "Fool" the page into thinking Firefox is Internet Explorer 8 by using an addon called User Agent Switcher. After installing that addon, you can do this by pressing Alt+t to bring up the Tools Menu. Then, click "Default User Agent"-->Internet Explorer-->Internet Explorer 8
Findings:
- This problem still occurs in Safe Mode
- This problem also occurs in Linux
TL;DR - I believe it's a site issue, and click here to report it.

Thanks for your help. I downloaded the Agent Switcher and tried that out. It is working fine now. I just switch to IE 8, enter the contest then switch back.
Thanks again.
