Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'cursor'. Declaration dropped.
Source File: http://www.motormoves-uk.com/admin/
Line: 0
I am getting the above message in the error console when I am trying to log onto an admin page of a site.
Having logged in the screen goes blank but the bar on the bottom shows "done"
I can access the area on another compute using the same broadband access.
Any suggestions?

You will get this in Firefox when you use the style prop cursor:hand
It's another M$oft specific anomaly.
Declare it as "cursor:pointer;cursor:hand" to cover the Web std and the M$oft variant.
You will still get the error, but ( as it says in the error console ) the declaration is silently dropped and does not stop the page rendering.
Your page looks ok to me in Firefox 3.0

You need to change line 36 in your source code ( assuming it's a static html page ).
Line 36 .....code....+ (new Date()).getTime();" style="cursor:hand;" width="80px"></td>
to ..... + (new Date()).getTime();" style="cursor:pointer;cursor:hand" width="80px"></td>
If it's a server side generated script (.pl .php .asp etc ), then you need to change the code that generates this line.
Like I said though , you will still get the error consol message , and it has no effect on rendering the page successfully.It simply means that Firefox users will get the mouse pointer.
So it will not cause your screen to be blank whether you make this change or not.
Try right clicking & view page source on your 'done' blank screen to see what url it thinks it is displaying and what code ( if any) is on that page.

Thanks for your input.
The problem however is at the PC end.
I can use another computer and I can access the admin section without a problem. However, from a particular PC I get this effect of blank screen etc.
What is bizarre is that I was accessing the page without any problem 5 minutes earlier.
Number for the Samaritans anyone?

IE8 would not work. However, Google Chrome lets me access the page.
