Upgraded to Firefox Quantum v58 yesterday and the header of the ME Website has become corrupted. The second menu bar is over the advert making bits difficult to read.

When I log on though it goes back to normal! Tried in Edge and Chrome and all seems OK. I have tried refreshing the page in Firefox but no change. Just thought I would report in case others have experienced the same. Would seem to be Firefox is reading the HTML "differently" in it's latest incarnation.

Interesting

Just opened up in Firefox - absolutely perfect - no corruption on mine ?

Looks fine here with latest Firefox - logged in or out.

This is probably a caching issue, try pressing F5.

Neil, have done (repeatedly) F5 and cleared the cache but still the same. Goes away when I log in but as soon as I log out the menu bar is through the middle of the Machine DRO banner. Very strange but probably something to do with updates, I allowed Windows 10 to do a huge update yesterday as well as the new Firefox update. C'est la vie...

Someone else lost access to the archive until i logged them out to check and they logged back in again.

I suspect this is being caused by third party updates and will straighten itself out in time.

We haven't changed the coding of the pages or the template, so I don't think it's a fault at our end.

FF58 Quantum on LinuxMint 18.3 is fine for me. When I open the site, this menubar is momentarily 'anywhere' on the page, then almost immediately jumps to its correct place. It always has done that for me, using FF/LinuxMint. I put it down to something in my overall installation - maybe you have a similar issue, but I don't have any other ideas, I'm afraid. Maybe try removing then re-installing FF Quantum?

Found out what is causing this. I had the view "zoomed" to make the text a bit larger in the browser. With zoom off the page renders correctly but as soon as I zoom the view the menu bar moves. This is a setting that Firefox remembers for each tab so would seem to be something that changed slightly with the latest update.

Journeyman John,

You also get a similar effect with "Adblock" enabled. I have it enabled by default but disable it for the MEW website, so that I can see all the lovely bits of kit that I can't afford!

Sorry Neil, please can you explain FWIW? I'm sure it will be obvious but I cannot bring anything to mind.
