    Something strange going on with one of my sites...

    http://www.insurancetipsguide.com/ runs perfectly in Firefox, but using Internet Explorer, it doesn't even load. I had never noticed until someone e-mailed me about it -- and now I can't find what's going on...

    Can anyone see something in the code that can point me in the right direction?

    Thanks!

    Seems like nobody can find this -- I'm baffled. Any kind of help/pointers is appreciated, I'd love to get this fixed.

    It's most likely in your javascript/ajax. Disable scripting in IE, and the page displays. (You might try moving the scripts to an onload event handler. That way the page will load before trying to run the js.)

    MSFT may have invented the XMLHttpRequest object, but they also seem to have the poorest support for it. I don't do enough js/ajax to be able to debug someone else's script, so I'll beg off on that.

    One thing you may be trying to do is add html snippets to the form element. Explorer seems unable to do that. See PPK on Javascript.

    cheers,

    Not entirely. I experienced the same problem and the same error message until I disabled javascript, which I had strongly implied in my previous post. Did you not read it?

    cheers,
