In the last week or so, I've found that any system page I've accessed causes the system icon on region view to come up black.

Tried the usual options (forced reloads/emptying cache, etc) but to no avail.

Anyone else had similar and found a solution?

It sounds to me like a rendering issue of the recent chrome version. I haven't had any map related svg changes in the recent past. Other browsers like Firefox or IE9 don't have that problem.

I'll check out i find a workaround but can't promise anything right now.

Please include details about browser, browser version, operating system with your error report. thanks

Sadly It's a Browser/Webkit Bug.

Blog: http://evemaps.dotlan.net/blog/2011/12/20/map-rendering-issues-with-chrome/
Webkit Bug: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70434

The only thing I can advice atm is just to wait for a browser update or switchover to Firefox/IE9/Chrome15 in the meantime.

Got same issue using chrome v 16.0.912.63 m

first load of a region map all looks fine, click system, back to region map and the system clicked is now black.

Ive found out that launching dotlan in incognito eliminates the problem, it would be nice not to have to tho..

Ty for a great site btw Wollari, would be lost without it.

A fix is now listed on the article you linked from your blog:

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70434

Is there any chance that this can lead you to something that can be applied at your end? Or are we waiting for a Chrome browser update to be released?

Amendment:

Ignore that.
