How to prevent duplicate web pages loading

when clicking on a link, two duplicate web pages load, how to prevent this

This started when you installed Firefox 13? Which version did you have before -- Firefox 12 or Firefox 3.6?
Does this occur on all sites or only on particular sites?
Do you have a very sensitive mouse or touchpad that might be double-clicking the link?

how to prevent duplicate web pages from loading

<s>Hi berternie, can you describe this in more detail?
Are you saying the identical page loads in two different tabs? When does that happen -- when you click a link? or when you use a bookmark?
Or do you have multiple tabs open every time you see your home page (i.e., when you start up, open a new window, or click the home icon)?</s>
I see, you have more info in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/930219

Web pages load SLOW on IPad: how to disable DNS prefetching; other ideas?

Brand new IPad 16 GB WiFi + brand new Airport Extreme in bridge mode. Comparing IPad web page load speeds with side-by-side WinXP computer running IE8. Any web site will do: take www.apple.com if you want.
Problem: IPad web pages generally load much too slowly compared to IE8 on a computer 6 inches away on the same Airport Extreme network. Maybe twice as slow at worst, occasionally not much slower, but generally pathetic and annoying. WiFi signal strength is "excellent". Airport Extreme network is working great with all my (Windows) computers and devices except the IPad.
I already switched to OpenDNS on my Airport Extreme; didn't help noticeably. I would like to try disabling DNS prefetching in Safari, but don't know how to do it on the IPad. Question #1: How do I disable DNS prefetching? Question #2: Any other suggestions for this embarrassing (to Apple) problem?

I'm experiencing a similar problem with a new iPad 2 using iOS 4.3.3 connected to the Internet via Time Machine to a DSL line. The Speedtest X HD App shows the connection speed to be fine (about .6 Mb / s). The problem is only with accessing web pages. I frequently get a "server not responding" msg. There is no problem when I connect the device via USB to an iMac, only through wifi. The iMac itself (Intel with OSX 10.6.7) periodically experiences problems (both Firefox and Safari): I have learned to solve it by cleaning out cache and fixing disk permissions periodically. I've tried cleaning out cache on the iPad, deleting cookies and erasing web history, but that doesn't seem to make any difference. The problem reminds me of an old VNC problem: you had to allocate a large amount of cache or streaming would stall. This is also happening with the iPad 2. Maybe the problem is a DNS channel issue but my impression is that it is somehow related to a memory or cache issue with the iOS device or to Airport. I've occassionally experienced similar slow page loading problems with other Airport connected devices--it varies from device to device. It seems to be a client-side software or caching problem.

Web pages load different?

With Safari/Firefox browser "maximized", full 20" screen, web pages do not fill the entire screen. For example, ebay loads just on the left side 1/3rd of the screen. Apple loads in the middle 1/3rd of the screen with large white areas on either side and Amazon will load and fill the entire screen. Is there something I can do to make all web pages load like Amazon? Thank you for your help!

No. This is a function of how the pages are coded, not anything to do with your browser.

After upgrading to 8.0 the add-on compatability tool runs and the Getting Started web page loads every time the browser starts.

After upgrading to 8.0 from 7.0.1 every time I start FF I get the add-on compatibility tool to run and the Getting Started web page loads along with my homepage in separate tabs as well. So far I have tried running the installer again, disabling all add-0ns and custom settings and restarting and turning off automatic updates. Nothing worked there. I got the same behavior each time. I don't know what else to try other than a full uninstall and reinstall. Something I'd like to avoid if it's possible because of the time involved. This is the second time I have posted regarding this issue. The first time I didn't get a response. A solution or a possible workaround would be greatly appreciated if anyone knows of any. As a staff member and a global forum moderator for an anti-virus company I understand how hectic things can be at times but some feedback, good or bad, on this issue would be very welcomed! Regards, Ritchie...

Hi michaell, thanks for the reply. I tried everything in the Preferences are not saved link you provided and nothing worked there. If creating a new profile will delete all my add-ons and custom settings I might as well just do a complete uninstall and reinstall. That actually would be easier. That article told me how to save my bookmarks though so I don't have to loose those which is nice. I don't know if this makes any difference but there is a discrepancy between the preference file in the article which is: prefs.js and what's showing on my PC which is: prefs with no .js suffix. I tried to rename the file to prefs.js and restarted. No luck there either. It just created another prefs file. I guess we've pretty much exhausted all the avenues to try! I'm just going to go ahead and do a reinstall when I get the time. Thanks so much for your help michaell. I do appreciate the effort. Regards, Ritchie...

How tall is a web page?

So we're doing pages 900+ pixels wide these days, but I'm wondering how much vertical content we can use before the user has to start scrolling - what he/she first sees when the page loads. Is there a rule of thumb (or mouse finger) for this?

It's true that you need to make an educated guess about the people who will be viewing the site.
For instance, if you know for a (relative) fact that they all use 12 inch monitors and IE6, that gives you an idea of what to shoot for.
If you have a sense that they all have wraparound monitors (surely someone will invent them) that are 36 inches on the diagonal and the latest, greatest Browsers, that tells you something else.
You can get general statistics about Monitor usage from w3c http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_display.asp Allowing for a vertical scrollbar and top of the Monitor screen material (toolbars, etc.), you can kind of guess at the actual Viewport sizes.
If you want to keep people on your page, and not scrolling to kingdom come (how tall is a web page? how high is the sky?), there are strategies:
Make the header stable and the container below it scrollable within a container so it looks like it's all on the screen...
Make the page short
Make the page liquid, so it doesn't hang off the page on small monitors or cower in the corner of larger monitors
Use Spry Tabbed Panels, or Spry Accordions, or other Spry content techniques
You can imitate Browser/Monitor Viewport sizes by doing Window > Cascade and adjusting the size of the floating window manually (drag the right bottom corner). The size of the Viewport will show at the right side of the Tag Selector at the bottom of the Document Window (1038 x 628, for instance).

Firefox has been randomly crashing for two days. I always have google and facebook running. Firefox seems to crash at random times - no specific web page loading. My Firefox is up to date.

There can be multiple reasons for crashing. Seeing this article would be helpful as it lists out the solution for this-

Slow web page loads on Mac, but not for PC

I use a D-Link wireless router (DI-524) for my PowerBook G4 15" and my roommate's Dell PC. Very recently I seem to get very slow web page loads with some pages not even loading at all.
Airport is consistently connected with no drops at all and when I'm downloading something it never gets interrupted the whole way through.
My roommate's PC has no problem whatsoever and all of the web pages that he visits load instantly. It seems that my main problem is with web pages.
I've tried doing a clean install on my Powerbook, I've tried resetting the router (I've tried upgrading the firmware but the router decided it didn't want to work with the new version). And surprisingly, I get the same slow speeds when I hook up my Powerbook to my router via ethernet cable. The only time my speeds are perfectly fine is when I hook up my Powerbook directly to the wall (I dorm in a university so we have a T3 line).
Can someone please give me some advice on this very frustrating issue?

In addition to Neds suggestions, empty the Safari cache (which should be empty after a clean install).
Goto the Safari Get Info screen (in Finder or in Dock if you have Safari there), click the triangle on languages, and disable those you don't use.
My Safari response time was significantly slowed after the 10.4.5 update, and using the combo updater took care of that. The 10.4.6 combo update is located here.

My Internet Connection is Fast, but Web Pages load slowl

I have tested my connection on several websites. I am using RoadRunner and I consistently get speeds between 3500-4500 kbps. In the past few days I have the same internet speed but all my web pages load really slow. Up until this problem I would click on a link and it would take 2-3 seconds to load the next page. Now it is more like 15-20 seconds. Once I get a page loaded if I download something from that site it is still a fast download.
Any ideas on what could have slowed loading web pages , but download speed still shows really fast?
Your help is appreciated
Cheers
mrjazz

If your download speeds are still fast, it is most likely the broswer that is slow in rendering the pages.
Are you using Safari and if so, do you leave it open all the time? Safari is notorious for hogging RAM and CPU cycles and slowing to a crawl if you do not quit and restart it.

Web pages load slowly using Safari, Firefox, and Chrome.

Web pages are loading slowly now on my mid-2008 iMac 2.66 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo.
Doesn't seem to matter if I use Safari v5.1.10, Firefox v29.0.1, or Chrome v34.0.1847.131.
Problem started about a week ago mostly with YouTube but now I have issues with almost all web pages loading slowly, including this one.

Try resetting both your Intenet MODEM/Router by unplugging them, waiting 15 to 20 seconds then plugging them back in.

WRT54GS - Web page loads slow or not at all

My parents have two wireless laptops accessing their WRT54GS. Both receive excellent signal strength. Web pages load at normal speed for the first unit to access the internet on their network. However, the web pages will take forever or not load at all for the second computer, despite the fact that the signal strength to the second computer remains excellent. It does not matter which connects first and which is second; the problem still occurs.
I might mention that the computers and the router were purchased on Dec. 23, so everything should be current, with the exception of the 12/28/06 firmware release for the router.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

hi...you can try different wireless settings on the router...
channel -- 1,9 or 11
under advanced wireless settings ,
beacon interval - 75
frag threshold - 2304
RTS - 2304
if this does not make any difference then upgrading the firmware could help you....

Adobe air how do links between web pages

Hello!
I try to use adobe air with dreamweaver : The tutorial shows how to package a web page but I can not integrate multiple pages. The html code <a href="page2.html"> test link </ a> is incorrect? Should I add something in the xml file?
Thanks for help.

It's just basic page for test :
<html>
<head>
<title>AIRHelloWorld</title>
<script>
function init()
runtime.trace("init function called");
</script>
</head>
<body onload="init()">
<div align="center">Hello World</div>
<div><a href="page2.html">test de lien</a></div>
</body>
</html>

NONE of the web pages load properly. If I hit "Ctrl + F5" it will fix THAT PAGE ONLY. I have to do this to EVERY SINGLE page I try to load. This ONLY happens with FIREFOX. Internet Explorer works fine. PLEASE HELP! Thanks.

To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.
