Browser view and preview are not the same.

Ver.12.2
I have just started to use WB again after a few years off. I like a lot of the new features, but I am finding that the WB preview of my page is not the same as when I preview the page in the browser.
I also seem to be having a weird thing happen with the Inspector panel. If I change the code on my page, it doesn't show up in the panel. I will have to change it again there. I am still trying to figure this one out.
I am most concerned about the previews.
Thank,
O

Can you send me a copy of the page and screenshot demonstrating the issue with preview? We haven't had any troubles, maybe it happens with some specific html only, so I will need to see the code to understand what's going on.

I figured it out at least for the slow loading. It seems to be Facebook code that is causing everything to slow down. Went I comment out the script, the problem with it loading so slow goes away.
Now to figure out what the heck I am doing wrong with the colors on my links.
Thanks

I see an insert img button but it only puts tags on this page. Am I suppose to upload these images to my website and then post them here, because it would be easier for you to just go to http://www.adams-harris.com on both browsers.
On firefox the menu down the left side had gold text on the orange ground. In IE the text is brown on the orange ground like it should be. The firefox version also doesn't show the menu link as having been visited, I guess because it is showing the visited color instead of the brown.

So as I left the last post, I clicked on my link and it took me to the firefox browser, and it did show up as brown text with some of the links in the visited color. This now seems it would be a firefox problem on my computer. Although if it is a plug in causing this, then anyone who has the same thing would also see it the same way. Not being a professional dev how would one handle that?

You could install Firebug if you don't already have it installed.
Using that you can inspect each of your links, and see what CSS is attached to each.
Then it should be fairli straightforward to spot if something is included from other sources than your CSS file.
There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary and those who don't.
