I'm not having a problem with it. Maybe they were having 'issues' yesterday.

I type in www.foodnetwork.com in the address box, then it changes to www.my.foodnetwork.com. FN never comes up, the blank screen just blinks.

Anybody have an idea as to what's wrong.

I can't get on the Cooking Channel either??

I believe it's a temporary problem with the browser trying to use a Java login item, and you're seeing attempted redirects to another area of the website. I did a quick search and it's been reported before (though not in the recent month or so) on the Food Network's Facebook page. Try a different browser, or try deleting cookies and cache and relaunch your current browser to see if that fixes the glitch. (If you're using browser addons/extensions that might be causing the problem.)

You might also report it to them -- on the Facebook posts they did say their tech folks would look into the problem each time it showed up.

(eta: The 2 websites are associated, so that probably explains why you've having the problem on both of them.)

Maybe it was your computer telling you it was giving you some time off from cooking LOL. The cable people spoiled it all for you.
