Page shudder on click

[freshlydesigned 1]

Hi, Just wondering what causes the whole screen to shudder monetarily when you navigate from page to page. On some pages it is a smooth transition with the background seemingly not moving, but other times there is half a second of whitespace before the new page arrives.....which is a bit ugly. Thanks Jamie

Can you post a link to your site?

The only thing I can think you are referring to, is this go to this page. http://www.boconnoc.com/events-calendar/ Once there click on Gallery and then back onto Events Calendar, if this is what you mean, its due to the scroller appearing on the Gallery page.

Hi Danny, Thanks, yeah I get there is a misalignment shudder when you get a scroller, ...but for all the other pages I get a white flash before the page loads.

The pages seem to be reloading occasionally in browsers. Do you have a cache plugin running? Can you bring this issue up with your site's hosting company as it may be related to a memory limit in your server? Meanwhile, I'll bring this up with one of our developers. By the way, you're not seeing ghosts and your site's not haunted. I did see it too. Though I did see a ghost once in Hampton Court Palace, we won't to there.

Open .htaccess in an edito and add to the top: [code] ## EXPIRES CACHING ## ExpiresActive On ExpiresByType image/jpg "access 1 year" ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access 1 year" ExpiresByType image/gif "access 1 year" ExpiresByType image/png "access 1 year" ExpiresByType text/css "access 1 month" ExpiresByType application/pdf "access 1 month" ExpiresByType text/x-javascript "access 1 month" ExpiresByType application/x-shockwave-flash "access 1 month" ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access 1 year" ExpiresDefault "access 2 days" ## EXPIRES CACHING ## [/code]

Thanks Rangelone, I did have a cache plugin but it crashed the whole site. I really WANT to find a stable cache plugin though as 50pc of clients are not very happy with the speed of their Pagelines / WP sites. I am moving all of them from shared to VPS hosting in a few days though so hopefully that will do the trick? Thanks Pross, will give this a go. Cheers

Yay...thanks PROSS, it works! What's the story if I want to add a cache plugin in the future? Cheers

Actually it works on one site I did it on http://www.basunti-yoga-india.co.uk ....but not on http://www.boconnoc.com ??

They are still no-cache for the images, for both sites. Maybe expires isnt installed on that server http://web-sniffer.net/ <= shows you the http headers. Bear in mind that those two address are on two different servers, so they are probably setup different. For you info, there are over 2000 other sites on each of them :O

Thanks, .....I know, moving them both to VPS in 10 days!
