bit common sense goes a long way really. so what could the problem be with FF i have never really had it before until a few weeks ago.

Thanks

this happens sometimes to me, but only once, and not very often, i usually hit refresh and it loads fine, try clearing out your cookies and cache in FF and see if it helps at all.

I don't know if it helps, but my Gmail works perfectly with FF. It might be that your internet is too slow, downloading updates or something....

nope, never had that, i've had it when its taken too long to load and you get the little message saying "Ooops, looks like this is taking longer than expected, try again in a few moments" or something along those lines... But i refresh and it works, do you have another PC to try it on, that would narrow it down to either your pc OR your internet connection...

thanks Dragon, how could my PC be causing this? what could be going wrong with it! i think it may be an internet issue but in general computers are issues anyway!

Thanks and i'll keep trying!
