This is one of the nicer examples. Sometimes I get a bunch of weird coding at the top of the page, and a few times the whole page has been nothing but weird codes.

And yes, I have tried clearing the board cookies, my cookies, nothing works any more.

So far, there haven't been any other reports on this issue, so, it's safe to say, this is not a problem that exists on the forum.

Personally, I have never seen this on my end.

It's like it can't load all the information for the site, maybe you should try a different browser, like Firefox or Opera.

I agree with axel rose

, try google chrome, it is the fastest browser I have used to date, clean and simple too. I also have IE8 with this damn windows 7 witch sucks, IE8 is slow and always tells me there are page errors and crap, a few days ago my new and improved win 7 locked me out of my own damned pc and completely lost my user profile.

What the hell is wrong the people who design this insanity at microcrap, I should have got a Mac!

I get exactly the same screen if I deliberately disable the "style sheet"-file.
Maybe the browser runs into a time out when loading that file, and decides to show the page without the "style sheet" information.
If you want, then next time you get a page with "weird codes" maybe you can try to save the actual page (e.g via right click -> "view page source" ->should popup up text editor allowing to save the page) and send it to me via PM. I am not sure if I can see where the problem is, but without an example this is very hard to diagnose.
Aside of that I like to read weird codes.

Will Firefox, Opera or Goggle let me transfer my favorites? I am getting rather tired of this.

Yes in fact most alternate browsers will import your favorites from IE.

Just to toss this in the mix...when I try to view the photo album via my I phone, all the text is in Arabic. At least I think it's Arabic. I've tried negating and reloading the app to no avail. From my laptop it views fine. Just a little oddity.

Try it now, Patrick.

Now the language is even more bizarre in the photo gallery.

Hi Patrick,
this might be the language setting of the doll album.
At the bottom of every page there is a "Select your language" drop down.
It might display something different if the language settings are messed up, e.g.:

: TDA set to Persian; tda_language.png (32.87 KiB) Viewed 3294 times

This is how it looks if set to Persian (Not that I speak that language). If you change the language to English all should be fine.
Hope this helps.

Yes, I also came across this language setting... about a year ago, somehow I kept changing it to Czech without meaning to. Haven't done it lately, fortunately.

I stupidly did, and suddenly audio files would no longer play on websties, regardless if they were embed or clicked on. I tyried everything I could think of, nothing worked. So I uninstalled FF and put my original browser (MSIE) back on, because it always worked great (except here).

Well now it won't play audio either! DON'T DOWNLOAD FIREFOX! IT IS A VIRUS!

I did a quick google search and it suggests that firefox might have set the audio volume to zero, so the audio files might still play, just at zero volume.

Suggested fix: check the volume control in the Windows toolbar while trying to play an audio file and make sure you pump up the volume.
Hope this helps.

Volumes are up. Firefux will play MP3 files, but not Midi. Midi will play fine when selected from my own saved files, just not in the browser (FF, or IE) anymore. And goodness knows what other files will be inaudible or unviewable now as well.

I've tried reloading their recommended media player (Quicktime, which I do not like)

I've tried going into tool: -> Accessories and specifying WMP as the default player, it still continues to call up QT and still no sound!

I have been having nothing but trouble since I uploaded it and it doesn't even matter if I uninstall it and everything that came with, or I got for it.

This applies regardless of whether the audio file is embedded in the page or I click on a link. The player looks like it is playing the file, but no sound comes out.

I'm going to have to take my computer down to get it fixed, and pay to have it run right again!

Needless to say I am angry.
