| Dear all,
There are probably not many who might encounter this as a problem as the combination of D2W and IE and _javascript_ is less likely. However, I can see it might appear if you use ERModernLook’s ERMODTabInspectPage as it looks as if it would be subject to the same problem.
Essentially, I was struggling with Internet Explorer ignoring AjaxObserveField and AjaxUpdateContainers. I finally tracked it down to a syntax error in prototype.js
function evalScripts() { return this.extractScripts().map(function(script) { return eval(script); }); }
It turns out that some of the generated _javascript_ on the page was throwing a syntax error on IE - namely some of my D2W page templates that use the following to give focus to the first textfield of the D2W page:
Script: WOJavaScript { scriptString = tabScriptString; hideInComment = true; }
The problem is fixed simply by changing hideInComment to false. No more Internet Explorer issues.
Unless you are using D2W, then you won’t see this issue but I suggest that ERMODTabInspectPage is modified as above to prevent others having the same issue.
Best wishes,
Mark
