It's probably a javascript error. They probably have javascript that hides the full article, but then adds a "Continue reading" link and attaches a click handler to it. If the click handler throws an error and fails to stop event propagation, it actually follows the link and reloads the page.
- esrauch 15y agoIt sounds like he was saying that reloading the page didn't have the new content, which means it is what you are talking about but combined with a link target that doesn't actually take you to a page with the continued text, meaning someone with JS disabled wouldn't be able to read the full text. I'm too lazy to check if thats actually the case though.
