I was playing with the Options and changed the Custom Stylesheet selection under Display Preferences. Suddenly squirrelmail worked, for a short time. I logged in and out a few times and it worked. Then after a few tries, again the left panel did not load. I've tried a couple of different computer/browsers, on the same network, with the same result. It was very inconsistent. If I change the stylesheet it will work on one computer and not the other. Then I discovered a workaround of a sort. I moved the Folder panel to the right side of the screen. Now, the Folder panel loads immediately and the Message panel remains blank! Using IE, the browser immediately says "done" while Firefox shows the spinning progress icon. Something is up with drawing the left-hand panel. But now, if I click on INBOX in the Folder panel on the right, the Message panel appears immediately! After that, for that session, everything works perfectly. So, it seems that something is preventing the first rendering of whatever is supposed to appear in the right frame. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
