At times, the CSS fails to load at first and does not refresh correctly when using F5 or CTRL F5, yet it occasionally loads when clicking on links

After dedicating a full day to trying to solve this issue, I am reaching out for some assistance. As a newcomer here, I apologize if this question has been asked before (I did search extensively and found nothing).

The website I'm constructing for my Consulting company encounters difficulties with browser caching. When the cache is cleared, the CSS fails to load properly in my background/slider images. Instead of rendering the CSS correctly, Chrome and Edge browsers display the images stacked on top of each other, pushing the rest of the body down further.

While I do use server parsing for certain navigation scripts, for some reason the CSS does not load on a refresh or hard refresh. However, it does load if the index.html link is clicked (either on the logo, nav bar, etc).

I am open to sharing the site for troubleshooting:

Below is the slider code for the site:

<div class="slider">
    <div class="fullwidthbanner-container">
        <div class="fullwidthbanner">
            <ul>

Answer №1

In case you encounter the same issue, I wanted to share my solution with you. I was able to troubleshoot and fix it on my own, although I'm not exactly sure which specific change resolved the problem. Nevertheless, the issue has been resolved now.

I was utilizing server parsing for .shtml documents to incorporate my scripts in my website's footer, in order to avoid editing them across the entire site. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that when I examined my JavaScript and JQuery scripts individually, they were being executed with the ASYNC attribute. Strangely enough, this attribute was causing an issue when the files were parsed. Once I removed the ASYNC attribute from the slider-related JQuery files, everything ran smoothly!

If you encounter a similar problem, I hope this information will be helpful to you!
