In some websites, things like ticket prices won't show up in Firefox, but they show up in IE

One example is this website:

http://nwyogaconference.com/purchase-pass/

I looked through some of the articles about Firefox problems, and tried entering this website as an exception for popup blocking, but it still won't show the ticket prices, even after closing my browser window and reopening it. The web page displays correctly in IE.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

What do you see where the prices normally appear? I have attached a screenshot of how it looks for me.

One reason the embedded (framed) Eventbrite ticket page behaves oddly -- I can't select text normally, for example -- is that Firefox 49 started applying some rules designed for Google Chrome and other browsers that were based on the webkit software. If you disable that new feature, the site may work slightly better for you. Here's how:

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.

(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste webk and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the layout.css.prefixes.webkit preference to switch the value from true to false, then reload the problem page
