One other thing...if this is a secure site and you are using IE 7, if your certificate is bad, something in the way IE7 handles cert authentication can cause problems. I am getting this problem with the shopping cart and login process on the site I am currently developing at work. We have a self signed cert on the dev server that wasn't set up right. Firefox lets you know of the cert error when you first hit the site, so when you get to the secure part, you already have the ok to override the error and all's well. While IE& doesn't check until you try something secure. Then it brings you to an error page, which is supposed to allow you to just continue (or abort the process)...but I think there is something between hitting the submit button on the login form and hitting continue on the error page, that is causing a problem. For the login, I had to add some extra code to the authentication process to account for IE as the code, which should be treated exactly the same by each browser (no browser specific coding involved) is run differently by IE7 and Firefox. Again...I think this relates to how IE7 is handling the cert error.

Two clients have gotten the same error so it's unlikely that sort of issue. <!----------------//------ andy matthews web developer certified advanced coldfusion programmer ICGLink, Inc.

A friend has been using an MLS (real estate listings) site for years. Suddenly about a month ago he started getting a similar error and could no longer access the MLS site. It would work fine using Firefox but not IE. After weeks of toying around with it he noticed a Yahoo toolbar that he said he didn't remembering seeing before. He removed the Yahooo toolbar and he can now use the MLS site again. -----Original Message----- From: Jacob [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 21, 2006 8:31 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Weird "IE" error, prevents page load I just got the same thing about two weeks ago on a few pages Happens in XP with IE 6 SP 2. I think it was an IE update because the coding was not touched in 2 years. When I removed all the javascript from the pages, I did not have a problem with it afterwards. I did not troubleshoot it to find out where in the javascript the problem was. I just made the page work and I "plan" on troubleshooting it later. Jacob -----Original Message----- From: Andy Matthews [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 21, 2006 8:09 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Weird "IE" error, prevents page load I've got a page which intermittently (but more often than not) presents an IE error: ---- Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. Operation aborted. ---- It's preventing me from showing the client as it's erroring. I've tried commenting out parts of the code but it continues to occur. The page uses AJAX to display various portions of the page onload and, in some cases onclick. This error seemed to start after I added in this functionality. Those are the portions I'm trying to remove, but I don't seem to be getting anywhere. Does anyone know what might cause this, and what I could do to stop it from happening? <!----------------//------ andy matthews web developer certified advanced coldfusion programmer ICGLink, Inc.
