Internet Explorer 7

Update version 0

The error appears to only come up using Internet Explorer 7. I don't have IE 6 to try it on unfortunately. I'm only getting this error on Hostican.com with IE 7 so that kind of tells me something isn't compatible in the code on that page. Of all the other many, many websites I've visited on both computers, I haven't run across this error. I think I saw it happen once before elsewhere, but that was a long time ago.

Oh well, maybe it's just Roger and me? That sounds like a movie...

Anyways, I thought I'd let you know.

I just tried this with the infamous MSIE 7 on an XP configuration, and all the pages I attempted, through a fair section of the site, loaded just fine, with no errors.

Anyone else?

Thanks for letting us know, I have sent this over to the programmers and we will start working on it to see if we can get to the bottom of this issue. (IE 7 sux).

Isn't it interesting that, even though it's standard in Vista, IE's market share continues to dip? Between Firefox and Safari, this will just get better and better.

Ladies and gentleman, we aren't asking you to change computing platforms. But IE is a bad browser, period. Firefox works on Mac OS, Windows and Linux. Safari functions on Mac OS and Windows. Then there's Opera. Plenty of options.

If a site is pushing ActiveX content, tell them to get with the plan, so you aren't saddled with a single choice for a browser.

I have a specific financial interest in seeing IE7 fail. The more people that switch, the happier my bank account becomes. Although, I can't say why that is.

But yeah, please switch to Opera or Firefox.

The funny thing is, we ran a code checker against the code we have and there are -0- errors or bugs.

Anyone tried on IE6 and IE 7 ?

[Joe User]

Well that's very interesting and strange. I wonder if it might have something to do with the Java.com Free java download that I installed. I installed it a long time ago to be able to participate in a Java chat room, and it hasn't given me any other problems. I tried uninstalling the java download, but it totally locked up my Vista machine when I did a reboot. I had to do a restore in order to get Vista running again.

For those running IE 7, do you have the Java.com download installed? Maybe it's just an isolated incident then on what other programs are installed and how IE 7 is setup. I was mistaken when I thought it was a global issue with IE 7.

[Scott]

I know for me, I don't have JAVA RE installed on IE6. I only have it installed on Firefox.

[james]

so you mean to say, IE6 and java scripts are not friends actually ? . hmmm I have to test it when I reboot the machine I guess

He was talking about JAVA Runtime Environment, not javascript.
