System error / Operation aborted when viewing betfair multiples thread

[bioboybill]

I just tried again using Opera and the thread showed up fine. I didn't get the offer anyway.

Yup, definitely IE related I think as it always appears fine through Firefox.

Is this still causing problems?

Working fine through IE now

Very odd that, have merged all the posts into the same thread now anyway about this... obviously there's some element in that thread that's causing problems with IE Could probably try and work out what it was if it happened for me, but it doesn't, loads OK... if you really can't get around it I'll try and have another look at it.

In my experience (bit technical I suppose), if you try and insert anything into the DOM via Javascript before IE has finished parsing the page, then it will throw the Operation Aborted error. Is it a particularly long thread, or has complex stuff built in? Alternatively, could be some external Javascript taking ages to load.

Either way, some Javascript may be kicking in too early for poor old IE to handle.

Yes it sounds vaguely similar to the problem you get with PHP session errors when you send out data to the browser and then try and write a session variable... no doubt there's something odd in the thread like you say... oh well it's not bringing the site to a halt!
