I just downgraded from High Sierra to ELCap and my browsers (Chrome, Safari) are not opening some web pages entirely. Just plain pages with blue letters, dead links or missing contents (thumbnails, pictures, videos, preview pics etc.).
I did already update the system.
Any solution for this?

By downgrading from High Sierra to El Capitan, you now have a version of Safari still using the old TLS protocols that most modern websites are blocking as insecure, and the version of JavaScript that Safari supports in El Capitan is far behind what is used on those modern websites, in addition to reduced support for contemporary HTML/CSS support. Even High Sierra is too old for current website support, so I see no resolution with the outdated operating system.
Firefox 94.0.1 has dropped support for El Capitan, and Google Chrome will likely follow later this year or early next.
Well, just today I have found that finding an unshown picture on these web pages and opening it in a new tab (and continue with the permission allowance), then refreshing the web site solves the problem for good. But only for that specific web page.
Sometimes, instead of opening link, just refreshes the web page... Opening link in a new tab is a working workaround.
Not ideal, but acceptable.
