Can't View maps

(1/3) > >>

olddays1:
  Just recently I am unable to view the map portion of mapquest. Just getting a blank page in both IE and FF. I have not changed any settings in either browser and have the proper settings configured according to MQ's site. Still using Windows 2000.

Anyone any ideas?

That's rather odd, does something like Google Maps ( http://maps.google.com/ ) work for you?

I would try reinstalling Firefox, perhaps doing a clean install by backing up your bookmarks and removing your profile folder ( http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Folder )

 Google maps does work fine. Well the problem is in FF and IE so it doesn't seem to be specific to the FF browser?

Yeah, but I've seen cases were the same problem occurs in the same browser for 2 different reasons. Odd, but it happens.

I'm a little stumped, Google Maps uses JavaScript very intensively, so it's not anything like that. At a bit of a long shot, I would suggest downloading ccleaner and wiping all your temp files (I would suggest unticking password removal and MSN messenger), make sure it's set to wipe stuff like prefetch data, then restart your computer.

 Ran the ccleaner but it did not solve the problem. Still haven't upgraded to FF2 so I guess that's the next step. Reading the FF forums seems like lots of people having problems with the upgrade so I've been putting it off.

 Thanks for trying.
