Whenever I try to load a https website, the CSS stylesheet for the site won't load. I've looked around for answers, and apparently fixing the system time can resolve the problem but, as far as I can tell, my system time is correct.

  • What leads you to believe that your system time has any impact on the issue? is the sites certificate already expired or not yet active? Apr 30, 2014 at 11:33
  • Are all sites affected or just some?

  • Is this a programming question?

  • @ FrankThomas I've found other users with the same problem, and changing the system time has worked for them. @James All sites. I can't even log into superuser, I'm using a guest account

  • @Chris: What kind of internet connection do you have and are there other devices on the same network that are working fine?

Are you referring to the CSS files including HTTPS and offering them on the same domain?

For debugging you can use Firebug. In the "Net" tab, you can see every request, including the webserver's response.

I had same problem - some sites wont load css. Example facebook. Facebook uses https protocol. I done fresh install of Win XP on PC from 2004 year, installed firefox and safari and both had same issue - no css for https sites. On other side some sites (for control) do load css and show correct graphics (like intel.com and other http sites). I did not realize shortly that MB battery was empty and time was reset on default MB time.

When I come to this post I updated clock and css was loaded and https sites have original theme. So .. it is correct that clock time have influence on loading css for https sites.
