This is a persistent problem encountered by some Craigslist users, and I'm sorry for your difficulty. Sometimes refreshing the page might solve the issue. (Use a full refresh, often called by Ctrl-F5.) Or you could try relaxing your security settings to allow all scripts.
Otherwise, my best suggestions are as follow:
- Switch browsers. If you're using Internet Explorer, switching to Mozilla Firefox, for example, or Google Chrome, might do the trick.
--or-- - Adjust your Internet Explorer settings. In IE 8, follow these steps:
- Click on “Tools,” and then “Internet Options” from the Internet Explorer menu.
- Select the “Security” tab.
- Click the “Custom level” button.
- Under the “Miscellaneous” section, locate the “Display mixed content” sub-section.
- Select the “Enable” option, and then “OK.”
- Click on “Yes” to approve your settings change.
