Since the weekend my Firefox 10.0.2 does not load the content of the frames when I connet to Facebook
I can log in and out of Facebook. The heading at the top of the home page loads, and so does the thin blue frame in which the content should be displayed. The page however stays blank. The same happens if I connect to a friend's profile. I also cannot search of display my profile wall of whatever.
My very old version of Microsoft Internet Explorer works perfectly, although it displays a warning about being outdated.
Google's Crome browser have the same problem as Firefox i.e. a blank screen.
I tried deleting cookies and cach. I tried reïnstalling Firefox. I even removed it completely, with al personal settings and stuff (and thus lost tweaks which I have been using for years) I the reïnstalled it... to no avail. I have tried using an old version (9.0.1) but it also just displays a blank screen.
If I DISable Javascript in Firefox my Facebook homepage loads, but the none of the buttons (eg "see more" , "display al nn comment" work. "See more" does not do anything and "disply all nn comments" displays a blank page.

I have found a solution to the problem on a Google Chrome forum where people were discussing the same problem in that browser. If you connect to https://www.facebook.com (NOTE THE "S" which indicates a secure connection) Facebook wil display correctly.
The only problem is that you have to keep pasting the "https" in front of every link you follow. To make it permanent do the following. I paste from the site (http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=1ce2eceab414b310&hl=en)

1. Login to your Facebook account in your browser. 2. Click on the Account on your top-right and select Account Settings from the drop down list. 3. Click on the Change link in front of the Account Security. 4. Put a checkmark in the checkbox labeled Browser Facebook on a secure connection (https). 5. Click on the blue Save button to save the settings.
Voila! Permanent https (secure browsing) on facebook and no more having to type in the "s" every time. :) 8 of 14 people found this answer helpful. Did you?

Can you post specific steps to produce this?
It is possible the Facebook has changed their code if it happens in Google Chrome as well.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.
- Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"
I do not really have to follow any steps to produce this. It happens every time I instruct Firefox to go to http://www,facebook.com.
The options to allow pages to choose their own fonts and colors are already selected.
I wondered if it did not have anything to do with Javascript as it does at least display my Facebook homepage if I disable Javascript... although it is then unusable as it wil not display al comments or more of a long comment. My Java has been updated to the latest version, but it seems to me if Javascript is an inherent part of Firefox, so that I cannot update that on its own.
I add an image of my screen when using Firefox.. in Google Chrome it looks similar.
The comma in the link above was just a typo... I did in fact try to connect to http://www.facebook.com
