This can have something to do with where daniweb server is hosted, and where we are in the world in relation to where the server is. Sometimes, it may happen that you get a slower connection to the server from your isp, for a short while, also, if you are on a wireless connection, you will have latency problems now and then.
It may also be that some ad trying to load, takes forever, this is most likely. When the webpage loads, check your taskbar and see if it got stuck on some ad url not loading, or taking long to load.
It may also be that during short periods of time, the server is getting many requests at once, and depending on the efficiency of the server, how long it takes to sort all requests. Maybe daniweb should flush the server more often?
As for me, I have a 512 kbps connection, and no problem opening daniweb at all.
That's a good point. I used to have issues with speed on DW but not anymore. I also have recently started doing it at 3am when our main, singular international exchange is unused.
Firefox does NOT like DW. I don't know why, but one particular symptom is tha it cannot render pages containing a long post.
Opera copes admirably.. no problems at all.
i've had zero issues with it. Opera has ads doesnt it? Unless you pay? Chrome has issues. Crashes all the time. No skins no plug ins. What version of ff are you running? What add ons? They could be the issue. I have ad and flash filters that work perfectly.
FF, the latest update, 3 .04? without checking [came in last week?] Zero plugins.
Opera has no ads, it is just good, clean, fast. Crash? Never. FF is a copy of it.
I'll point you at a long post so you can see what I mean about FF... http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread155796-4.html
Does it render the whole page? Perfectly? No omissions, blank spaces, black areas?
