Sometimes, a webpage gets loaded in the browser but it is not displayed properly. All the elements of the page are there, but they are not there where they should be.

for example (A,B and C are three elements of the page)

-----------------------
|       |      |      |
|   A   |   B  |   C  |
|       |      |      |
-----------------------

may be displayed as

---------
|       |
|   A   |
|       |
---------
|       |
|   B   |
|       |
---------
|       |
|   C   |
|       |
---------

i.e. the formatting is missing. How does that happen?
