some sites not filling in screens
Some sites show the full screen; some do not: just show the tab & a white screen! I tried going to Mozillazine to see why, but it just showed the top of the page.

If you have many extensions then first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem.
Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.
Ad-blocker extension was the culprit. I amended the filter & things straightened out.
