Website internal links stopped working

On http://westportnow.com when a link to another section of the site or to a story is clicked, it follows the link, displays the new page for 3-4 seconds, then reverts back to the previous page. This is new behavior and ONLY happens in FF -- not in any other browser. What is going on and how do I fix it? I've started it in safe mode: same problem. I reinstalled FF. Didn't help. I need a fix for this that doesn't rely on the reader having to do anything different from what they've been doing for the past 10+ years.

Thank you.

Hi wordsilk, in another thread, a webmaster said this is caused by the "Rocket Loader feature by Cloudflare." That looks like something you use on your site.

This might be helpful, I'm not sure how it all works: How can I have Rocket Loader ignore my script(s) in Automatic Mode? – CloudFlare Support

If you disconnect googlesyndication.com from Rocket Loader, does that solve the problem on your site?

I still don't know why the combination of Adsense + Rocket Loader + Firefox 44 causes this problem, but at least that might provide you with a server-side workaround.

You can try to load such a page in a Private Browsing mode window to allow Tracking Protection to block a specific script that isn't working properly to see if that has effect.

You can use an extension to get Private Browsing mode support per tab.

The problem isn't that *I* can't figure out a workaround. The problem is this site is visited by about 15,000 readers per day, about 4% of whom use FF to visit the site. They expect it to work as it always did, and it's not. If I disable rocket launcher, is slows down the site for everyone, including the 96% of visitors NOT using FF.

So what is it about the combination of Adsense + Rocket Loader + Firefox 44 that is causing a problem? I have no idea -- but I wish this issue could be resolved without breaking the site -- didn't need a hack for the site to work in FF until this latest update.

Hi wordsilk, I haven't seen an explanation here, but maybe Cloudflare has a support article or forum that has more information by now?
