Hi,

I noticed that when I try to load a node view/edit/create page, at the end of loading, there will be a very quick flash on the top part of my page. And this seems not happening for other kind of pages.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Bare me if this is not the right place for my post.

Never heard of or seen anything like this. Is there a link to the site we can look at or something, or if there's *any* way you can get a screenshot that might help a great deal.

I've never heard of anything like this either. Does it happen across browsers? Across different computers?

I test linux(firefox) and windows(ie, firefox),

It seems only happen on windows + firefox.

Thanks.

Is there a chance that that flash is the admin menu? Any more details on what's in that 'flash' would be really helpful.

Non-admin users also have this problem. So I guess it is not related to admin menu. The flash is so quick, I really can not tell what is flashing.

I will do more test, and report back.

Thanks.

I have tested with garland, and the problem still exists.

Since it happens across different themes, I guess it is not an issue of acquia marian, and may be related to some other modules.

Any ideas/directions/suggestions how to debug this?

Thanks.

@foredoc: most likely it is related to something being hidden with javascript or CSS, and the content that is being hidden is showing for a split second before the JS or CSS can load and hide it. Think of which modules you have enabled that might be hiding an element on the page (perhaps so that it can be shown dynamically later by clicking on a button or tab) and try disabling that module. If the issue is resolved when that module is disabled, then search that module's issue queue to see if others have reported the issue and found a solution.

Also, I would suggest testing to see if the flash exists when JS and/or CSS compression are turned on/off.

Good luck in finding the solution.

Cheers,
Sheena

Looks to me that this problem is caused by ckeditor + cck date field

And I created an issue as following:
