Facebook a blank white page

[debodun]

Today (Aug 13), when I tried to access FB with Firefox, all I saw was a blank white page (I have Windows 7 - 64 bit as an OS). I tried clearing FB cookies and browser cache, and resetting my modem but that didn't help. I also attempted to log in with IE - no luck. Went over to the library and tried to log in on their system - same thing - a blank page. The librarian was able to log in her account. I can't access anything that has "facebook" in the URL, all I see is this on anything that says facebook in its URL:

It looks like it's a Facebook problem, and not on your computer. A helpful link in case it happens again is

I just found out that FB is not helpful when there is a problem. I got one of those messages too. They didn't fix my problem. But I did not have a blank page. I talk about it on my thread on this subject in the General Discussions. FB has no person assigned to help. If their canned solutions don't work, a person is stuck.
