When using the encounter builder to run a combat, once you start the encounter and try to click on an npc in the initiative list, the page goes blank. You have to refresh the page to see the initiative list again. I cannot select any npc to see their attacks, profile, etc.
I have also been getting this issue. So far only with certain npcs/monsters, specifically a "brain in a jar". I've tested multiple encounters with this monster added, and in each one the page crashes when I try to view its stat block from within the Encounter page.
Please submit a support ticket including this list of monsters. This is a known issue they are trying to resolve, and staff has said that submitting a ticket is the best way to make sure this info gets to the right people. Note that today is a holiday in the US, and support staff don’t work weekends, so it willl likely be next week before you hear back.

D&D Beyond StaffDo you have any extensions that might be interfering? Beyond20, AboveVTT, ad-blockers, VPNs, etc...

D&D Beyond StaffAha! Thank you for pointing out this specific monster, I'll pass this along to the team.
Yeah, I can confirm that it does not crash with every monster.
It seems the offending monsters are from specific sources, for example:
Most monsters from VRGtR make the encounter builder crash, I tested that the following do:
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/priest-of-osybus
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/bodytaker-plant
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/boneless
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/carrion-stalker
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/carrionette
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/deaths-head
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/dullahan
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/gallows-speaker
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/greater-star-spawn-emissary
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/gremishka
This monsters from VRGtR does not make it crash:
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/elise
Most of the Candlekeep Mysteries monsters make it crash, I tested that the following do:
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/arrant-quill
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/lichen-lich
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/animated-broom
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/animated-chained-library
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/canopic-golem
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/cloud-giant-ghost
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/constructed-commoner
https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/corrupted-avatar-of-lurue
This NPC from CM does not make it crash: https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/bak-mei
Other (quick) tests I did with new sources:
I could not find any offending stat-blocks in 'Strixhaven', nor in 'Fizban'.
Hope it helps to sort the bug out, I was planning to use the EB with some VRGtR monsters, but I guess I'll wait :'-(
thanks!

I am still working with the support team on this. A team member created an encounter under my account and they are troubleshooting this.
