Did something break my Recently Active?

In the last day or so, I noticed that when I go to Recently Active, I get the site headers and then just a fragment of Javascript (when on Firefox) or just the site headers alone (when on IE). When I browse source, the last thing received is this:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function toggleMenu(id){
      element = document.getElementById(id);
      element.className = (element.className.toLowerCase() ==
                            'expanded' ? 'collapsed' : 'expanded');
    }

The problem didn't occur on IE when I wasn't logged in. Any ideas what's going on?

I hadn't thought of that. I tried turning it off, but it didn't help. I also shut off all custom CSS as I'm getting strange javascript errors and that didn't help either. -xdg Code written by xdg and posted on PerlMonks is public domain.

I had to completely disable Norton. Everything -- not just one component, or setting up a special exception rule -- but absolutely everything. (Right click, select disable.) -QM -- Quantum Mechanics: The dreams stuff is made of	[reply]

I don't have this problem using Opera 8.52, Firefox 1.5, or IE 7. I'm wondering what changes could have occurred that would affect both your browsers...	[reply]

Nothing has changed on the site, so its probably something local to your set up. --- $world=~s/war/peace/g	[reply]

I'm not so sure. The problem only appeared when I was logged in (both browsers), so it's not a browser/firewall/ad-blocker issue. I shut down all my custom CSS, just in case (based on some extraneous "^M" characters in the source) and that didn't fix it either. Finally, clearing my newest nodes flag fixed it.
