I'm running Debian 9 installed via netinst in February with some packages added via Synaptic and run neither Update nor Upgrade explicitly.

My browser is SeaMonkey 2.49.1 downloaded from https://www.seamonkey-project.org/ . I have no add-ins/add-ons/extensions/etc installed.

I routinely browse with JavaScript disabled.

I've not had any problems with https://manpages.debian.org/ in the past.
This morning I'd visited a site which required JavaScript.
Without having disabled JavaScript I attempted to visit https://manpages.debian.org/ .
It never loaded. There were NO error messages.
After disabling JavaScript there was no problem reaching the site.
I repeated the enable/disable JavaScript sequence several times.
The problem is repeatable.

I posted to the debian-user list [https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2018/05/msg00339.html].

I got a response stating:
Hm, worked fine here, although I only have ff (59.0.2) with ublock
(although it's stating nothing was blocked).

The page does load some javascript though -- looks to do something with
the fonts / css, but it's been a while since I've used JS ...

I responded:

I've the "Firefox ESR" that was installed by default.
It loaded  https://manpages.debian.org/ OK.
I don't know if it has JavaScript enabled nor do I know how to check.
Don't know how to verify its version either.
Tried ff a few time in past. Never liked it.

Comments/suggestions?
TIA
