IE could not open internet site. Connection Aborted :(
 

Hi ,
i am getting this error on my forums
while on firefox its running smoothly no errors. this error only comming in internet explorer.
can anyone help me to solve this :( ?

Thanks in Advance.

See this thread - using IE and FF

IE is extremely picky about JavaScript errors - something that might parse OK in FF may throw a nasty error in IE.

arauf, we also had this problem on our site. Here's what we found:

We noticed that the only users having this issue were ones that had their editor set at anything other than the basic editor.

We were running vbportal and a theme from extremepixels. Over at vbportal, Nitro created a modifiued version of the theme from extrmepixels so show the portal blocks. When we turned his theme off, the error went away. So, obviously we started thinking there was a problem with his theme.

However, we started trying to find what in his theme could be the culpritt. What we found was it was something in that theme, but not something he had put in it. WE had added lightbox javascripts to it that were causing IE to blow up. We had disabled the default vb lightbox b/c it's so incredibly hideous, and then implemented the huddletogether lightbox. BTW, the huddletogether lightbox works fine on every other theme we have. Just not this one for some reason.

Anyway, once we commented out the lightbox stuff from the header, the error went away. So, for now we're back to the crappy vb lightbox, but at least it functions.

The trick to usually avoiding alot of these issues is to putting the defer command into the javascript call. These javascript calls tend to happen if the javascript is used before the page is finished loading.

How doi you use the defer command.

add into the javascript call

Into every javascript we're running?

When you say into the JS call, do you mean like this:

Yes, like that. But still, it's best to actually fix the actual error.
