Hi

I have set up a site for our uni course which has been operating well however I have just identified that it is not working on MS Internet Explorer... I am using firefox??

The followign error appears when users try to log into the site -

Error "Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site" Operation Aborted

click ok in the box that appears and it exits the site??

Anyone got any ideas... it works fine with firefox?

thanks
cameron

This error occurs in IE when you try to execute javascript that adds content to an element before that element is closed during page load. The best way to fix it would be to alter your javascript so that it doesn't add to the page until after the page has completely loaded.

They are doing away with the error in IE8 though. You can see more about that here:

To add to this, perhaps the easiest way is to delay the code with settimeout...
