getting "unable to render code block" error for preview page of ipynb(python notebook) file in MSFT Edge browser

[kenichi-segawa]

Hi community,

I wanted some help understanding how to fix the following error, "unable to render code block" every time when I try to preview page of ipynb(python notebook) file in Edge browser. I'm highlighting edge because it works in my Chrome browser without any errors, so I know it's not related to the repo/file. Is this related to my browser setting? Any inputs would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hey @kenichi-segawa

I just listed you some stuff that helped me in the past if I was facing errors when trying to preview .ipynb files in Microsoft Edge.

1. Clear Cache & Cookies: Begin by clearing the cache and cookies for Edge. Outdated cache might sometimes cause rendering issues.

2. Browser Extensions: Edge extensions can occasionally interfere with content rendering. I suggest disabling your extensions one by one, refreshing the page after each, to see if any particular extension is causing the problem.

3. Update Microsoft Edge: Ensure you're running the latest version of Microsoft Edge. Updates can contain fixes for minor glitches and compatibility issues.

4. Hardware Acceleration: Navigate to Edge settings, then to System. Here, you'll find an option named "Use hardware acceleration when available". Try toggling this option. Some users have found that adjusting this setting can resolve certain display issues.

5. Version Compatibility: If you're using the Chromium version of Edge (the one that shares its base with Chrome), the rendering should ideally be similar to Chrome. If you're on an older version of Edge, consider updating.

6. Alternative Approach: As an interim solution, you could consider using external platforms or tools like nbviewer to view your .ipynb files. Just paste the link to your GitHub .ipynb file there, and it should render appropriately.

Hope these steps help you resolve the issue.

I turned off my ad blocker and it worked

for me it's because of "Dark Mode - Night Eye" extension. if its disabled every thing works just fine.

Thankyou so much
I had this issue with chrome and sorted it out by trying to disable all extensions one by one
Found it at my second try with ContentShake AI Extension.❤️

Hello @kenichi-segawa , I have encountered the same problem as you, and I also believe it is a extension issue, but I am not sure which extension it is. Can you tell me?

Thanks! +1 it was extension problem for me too. I was using a text clipper extension from YT videos which was causing this issue; simply removed it :D

For me, the chrome extension "TopCashback" is interfering with the rendering...

[LipstipCherif]

it was "Selectext: Copy Text from Videos" for my case, once I deactivated the error disappear

[back2yes]

for me it was "SmoothScroll", banned it and worked like a charm

Turn of all extensions, then refresh, then add the extensions again one by one and see which extension might be causing this. For me, it was the my dark mode extension
