Dropbox Website seems to have lost it CSS
Just recently the Dropbox website won't display correctly on any browser - Chrome, Safari, Firefox - it loads fine but shows no Style sheet just basic list form that can't be used properly. I am usin...
When using Telstra Broadband Protect (Australian Telco web filtering) adding www.dropbox.com and cfl.dropboxstatic.com to the Broadband Protect allowed sites list fixed this problem for me. (Make sure you click on the save button at the bottom of the screen after adding sites to the list). Thank you linda a.16 for solving this one.

I don't see how using Dropbox to host your CSS file will be any faster than hosting it directly on your website's server. In fact, I would think it might even be slower than an actual web host.
Remember, Dropbox is not meant to be used as a web host. An actual web host running Apache, IIS or some other software meant for web hosting is the better solution.
I'm encountering an almost identical issue to the one posted above. Dropbox (app) is functioning properly, but when I attempt to access the website, it stalls out (showing only 'Connecting' for quite a while before loading something like the above screenshot.
This happens across all browsers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox), not fixed by cache emptying, I've checked firewalls, checked for blocked ports, set my machine to DMZ in case, still encountering the same issue.
I'll be reaching out to my internet provider (Time Warner) as well, as I just learned a friend in my apartment complex is having the same issue, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to write here as well to see if there's something to try on Dropbox's side. Thanks so much!
