Description
Installed Rounded Corners for use on our Homepage (which also uses Panels). Results were 'operation aborted' message followed by Internet explorer 6 and 7 redirecting to crash. Perhaps has something to do with code trying to modify the parent container element by using either the innerHTML method or the appendChild method (per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927917).

I found this:

Looks like you're probably right as to the cause. Not sure we can implement their solution quite that simply, but at least we have the source of the problem identified.

Oh, and FYI, I ran into this using reCaptcha, not Rounded Corners.

Hey there- the operation aborted message is such a pain. I had to put all my scripts just before $closure on my page file, before it worked all the time. You can use the defer option (This helps a lot) but realistically it's probably because you have some old school approach vs. new school approach. I had to go back and rework a lot of my old school .js and upgrade it to the newer thinking og jquery to get everything to play along. It happens a lot with get element by id and jquery's way of doing things.
Shout back if you need some more help!
