I wasn't reading "post" as "http post", but as "send some data for update". So in my world, inquiries would still work.

Old man stranded on a desert island when a beautiful young lady in a wetsuit swims up the beach. He looks at her and she asks if he is hungry? He says yes. She pulls a hamburger out of her sleeve and he eats it down. She asks if he is thirsty, and he says yes. She pull a cold bottle of beer out of her other sleeve. She starts taking off her wetsuit and asks if he wants to play around. He asks her, do you have a set of clubs in there?

The Cat in the Hat may be fifty years old, but he, and Grinch, Horton, Lorax, Thing1, Thing2, are immortal: Quote: In 1954, a magazine report speculated that one of the reasons for declining children’s literacy was that books like “Dick and Jane” were boring. Geisel took up the challenge and wrote Cat in the Hat using 220 words suitable for beginning readers. It didn’t thrill teachers, but became one of the most popular children’s books in history. He later wrote Green Eggs and Ham when someone challenged him to write a book using 50 words or less.

I will be reading Green Eggs and Ham to a bunch of 3 year olds tomorrow. Dr Seuss WEEK at preschool.

I remember The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins % Bartholomew and the Oobleck ( didn't check spelling ) from about then, more words used, and a story I liked at the time.
( While Seuss did a great job, I think the idea is often overdone. If you want kids to be stupid, treat them like they are. )

Since someone pointed me to the RootAdmin site (I'm not making a link of that, for reasons which will become obvious), the CP site has been a wreck!
Pages load with reduced functionality, or without accessing the scripts at all (as an html-only interface, it's somewhat less than optimal).
I've cleared my cache + everything_else twice (which introduces a whole new world of aggravation), with no improvement.
Not a happy puppy.

It works fine for me!
CP is moving pretty fluidly, which is a surprise for a Sunday morning as I suspect that's "Backup time" and it's generally a little slow.
But I'm logged in to both CP and RA ATM and it's PDQ.

Wow! CP goes Retro!
Have you tried a CTRL+F5 and a browser reboot? Or did you accidentally connect via 56K?

I've tried everything except using a modem of 56k or below.
Lemme just go under the kitchen sink and dig a few out...

And this is what happens if I'm lucky.

Hmm ... have you checked your adblock / hosts list? It sounds like your JS is not loading - could that URL be blocked?

Ha!
Looks like there was a Ghostery update, which knocked CP out of the whitelist.
Seems fixed*.
* Note the science-geek phrasing, there -- "is fixed" would be asking for trouble.

Seems to be back to normal (still avoiding definite statements, because I don't have any unvarnished wood to touch).
Ghostery must have updated during the same session when I visited the green CP, just to confuse me -- coincidence isn't your friend, when bug-hunting.

Oh, and have you tried Chrome / Edge? (In a VM / sandbox if necessary.)

Wouldn't a cesspit be more appropriate?

I used to have a account there, but now (i tried to check how it work at my end) it seems to be locked... I do not remember my password but RootAdmin can't send a restore-link to my email, even it is obviously in the DB (I can't create a new account with that email)

@Chris-Maunder
Can you have a look at this, please?

I not really used it actively, but tried to check what Mark may see...

I don't use it actively either (nobody does that I can see) - to the point when I tried to log in it had an old password: I can;t even remember when I last changed my CP one, so it must be a few years now ...
I used to use it to let Chris know CP was down
