Hi All,
I thought I’d post a frustrating problem and subsequent solution that I experienced today. A client called and reported that several users with IE 6 started experiencing “operation aborted” errors on certain pages of their web site. The problems started yesterday but no changes had been made to the website in weeks.
After stripping the code down as much as possible I arrived at a base chunk of code that would generate the errors in IE 6 (IE 7 and Firefox work fine).
The solution? Remove the BASE tag! Weird, huh?!
Now, as to why the error only started occuring, I can only guess. I suspect that something changed with Google maps that was affected by the BASE tag.
Later…
