I speak of the popular read-later/highlighting website Matter and its subordinate pages: on my copy of DT at least, it refuses to load and offers up some kind of cryptic error message. That is, the official corporate landing page (hq.getmatter.com) loads, but not the actual working page (web.getmatter.com). Anyone have any thoughts why?
Another prominent website that absolutely will not load in my copy of DT (there are others): The Toronto Star (thestar.com). Is there a setting I need to change? Something to do with javascript?
Some websites are only compatible to popular browsers. But a screenshot of Preferences > Web would be useful.
Out of curiosity, I fed that link (web.getmatter.com) to curl. The so-called “web page” consists entirely of JavaScript code.
There simply is no HTML in the true sense of the word.
And even opening the URL in Safari gives a ton of error in the console (i.e. JavaScript/load errors). Not exactly awe-inspiring.
