The videos on this Home Depot page do not play for me, but they do play if I use
Chrome. What's wrong?

For starters: 2.49.4. Try with 2.53.2.

Can you try it with 2.49.4 and 2.53.2? I'm concerned it might be a problem with SM
setup and not the version.


There are 115 HTML errors and 75 CSS errors in that Web page.  I believe
your problem is with the Web page and not with SeaMonkey.

The phone number for Home Depot's Web site feedback is 1-800-435-4654.


These kinds of answers are really unhelpful and, personally, tick me off.

There may be tons of "errors" but fact of the matter is that Firefox, Opera and Chrome manage to parse it correctly and work anyway. And since Firefox and SM are both Gecko it really points to SM's issue. So at that point you really can't blame the website, it is Seamonkey's inability to deal with being able to properly parse what is thrown at it while others do it no problem.

So nope, not buying it. This is a Seamonkey issue not a website issue.
Just that it is Gecko and works in Firefox does mean nothing. Basically most major websites nowadays are blotad garbage. New features from current Gecko are added all the time but it is a slow go. I use Edge Chromium as a second browser but relevant websites not working are not really many right now. Facebook Youtube and the other ilk are problably best viewed with a Chromium browser anyway and apart some parts work in 2.53.3.

2.53.3 has a few more fixes. The event error rings a bell but not sure if fixed already. Can't even connect to the mentioned websited because of geo blocking. Welll Amazon and ebay still work well for now so dont need crappy sites.
