Hi, Hussein:
Thank you for that quick feedback! (By the way, I am also seeing
this on Firefox. The video I sent was shot on my Windows 8 machine,
running Firefox 53.0.2 - 32-bit.)
Any insights you can share would be appreciated. Please let me know
if you would like me to do any testing in my environment. I would be
happy to.
Best regards,
Pierce

We have been having issues with artifacts (for lack of a better
word)
appearing when navigating our online web help. I have attached a
short
video to illustrate the problem.
The page being loaded is displayed with an incorrect layout during
a split second.
The steps to reproduce the behavior are as follows:
1. Go to the table of contents for the book
<https://xtupleuniversity.xtuple.com/sites/default/files/refguide/current/index.html>
2. Select a link in the TOC
3. See the "artifact" appear on the screen before the desired
page is
rendered
4. Desired page is rendered
5. Select another link
6. Process repeats
(NOTE: The issue occurs whether I am navigating either the online
version mentioned above or a locally-stored copy.)
I assume this is known behavior,
Yes.
but I was unable to locate any information when searching the
archive. Is there anything we can do to
avoid these artifacts from appearing while links wait to load?
No.
Chrome and Opera (that is, WebKit-based browsers) show these
artifacts. Firefox does not.
May be setting "async" and/or "defer" on
<script charset="UTF-8" src="_wh/wh.min.js" type="text/javascript" />
and on other <script/> elements would improve the situation. We'll
have to understand the purpose of these flags and experiment with
them:
