    I'm not sure, i can see the page just fine. You could make the link non-view-style-specific, so in this case http://digital-finger.smugmug.com/gallery/1589196

    I''ve noticed an increase in "dropped packets" all over the net recently. Could be my service provider, but more likely it's common to lots of servers. For me, it happens a lot with Yahoo, a little with others, none with Google.

    A dropped packet causes an unrecoverable interruption in the "painting" of the web page by the browser. The blank white page is an example. The handshaking between server and browser gets far enough to clear the screen, then gets confused by a dropped packet, and then just sits there.

    Hit the browser refresh button and see what happens.

    yeah tried tthe refresh a few times -dint do it - but as I say _ I havent hasd a repeat (YET) so its still a bit of a mystery, in fcat I dont think it has ever happened before anywhere - which is why I was so baffled

    I think the smugmug servers are bending under the strain of everyone going "Yippee, customised watermarks, let redo the whole site." :D
    I had one or two blank pages and some that loaded without the css file to arrange things.

    Looks all good now ... well until America wakes up again. rolleyes1.gif
