Is that so? How can one tell if they have javascript enabled? I get this problem when I open a user's page in a new tab. It works fine if I click a username to bring up their info-box.

    It works fine if I click a username to bring up their info-box.

Then you have javascript enabled. If you have it disabled, then opening a user's page just sends you to the broken page.

Sorry, I should clarify - I have javascript enabled too, I only experience this when I open a user's page in a new tab/window (as Fox says).

So the reason for the lack of styling is completely understandable, but it would be nice if this was fixed because it's something I do alot.

To kind-of fix (by forcefully including the dark CSS): 1. Open a user page in a new tab, for example, mk 2. Open your web inspector console (in Chrome Ctrl-Alt-I and then Esc) 3. Paste this:

    var link = document.createElement('link');link.setAttribute('rel', 'stylesheet');link.type = 'text/css';link.href = 'dark.css-1-10-13';document.head.appendChild(link);

I agree that this should be fixed. I'm too much of a habitual middle-clicker on links to know that I was supposed to just click on a person's name. I noticed that my followers list does this as well.
