How do I remove flickering from my HTML page?

I have a mockup here

http://dummytest.herokuapp.com/

At the moment the plain vanilla HTML shows first and then it flickers and it is rendered with CSS applied. How can I get my page to show the CSS styling as the first thing completely bypassing the unstyled text?

You would like to correct your HTML to comply with HTML standard:

<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html lang="en"> 
<head> 
    <meta charset="utf-8"> 
    <title>Test Harness</title> 
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> 
    <meta name="description" content=""> 
    <meta name="author" content="">

    <script src="http://html5shim.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script><![endif]--><!--<Le>styles</Le>--> 
    <link href="/stylesheets/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet"> 
    <link href="/stylesheets/datepicker.css" rel="stylesheet"> 
    <link href="/stylesheets/style.css" rel="stylesheet"> 
    <style>body { 
        padding-top: 30px; /* 60px to make the container go all the way to the bottom of the topbar */ 
    } 
    </style>

</html>

Put all your <head></head> code in one place and all your <body></body> code in one place as well. Currently you have 2 sets of <head> and <body>. Take the one above (with menu) and merge it with the one below (with welcome message).

It would be best to run all your webpages through http://validator.w3.org/ to avoid future problems like this.

Your document is not well formed (wiki), which is leading to this behavior.

Generally web pages go:

<html>
 <head>
  <!-- meta tags go here along with title, 
      script links, and css style references -->
 </head>
 <body>
  <!-- elements for rendering go here -->
 </body>
</html>
