page loads twice in Google chrome
I notice this same issue in IE if the page contains img tags that don't have a src attribute (or the src is empty, etc). Not sure if Chrome does the same thing, but worth checking, right?
For me the problem was because of the extension Firebug Lite for Google Chrome. Once deactivated the page only loads once.
I had a very similar problem:Chrome and Firefox loading the page twice,Internet Explorer loading it once.
The problem was because of my .htaccess:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-fRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-dRewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [QSA,L]When the browsers were requesting a favicon.ico, my index.php page was called, thus creating a double access to the server.My solution was to create a favicon.ico, although I could also had index.php handle that special case, or even .htaccess, but I needed a favicon.ico anyway :)
