title: What causes (javascript library, cms, etc) the "white screen of death" in web browsers?
body: <p>I was looking around Stack Overflow for an answer to this problem and found this old question...
  <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3007577/web-service-call-in-javascript-causing-white-screen-of-death-wsod-in-browser">Web Service Call in JavaScript Causing White Screen of Death (WSOD) in Browser</a></p>
  
  <p>With my antiquated Safari web browser I find that I'm experiencing this on a number of websites lately. Here is the list so far:</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://www.treehugger.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.treehugger.com/</a></p>
  
  <p><a href="https://www.udemy.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.udemy.com/</a></p>
  
  <p>and I believe there was a third that I don't recall.</p>
  
  <p>Basically these sites are completely useless to me. In the case of Udemy I've even tried this on my Nook using the Dolphin web browser and the problem persists. I find it hard to believe that a site like Udemy would be unaware of this continuing problem so I'm wondering what issues there are with my browsers that might lead to this.</p>
  
  <p>Anyway, is there a particular javascript package that these sites may have in common? Any similarities between these two site that anyone can see?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,
  Bob</p>
