Use Firefox

Filed under: Admin,Uncategorized — Chas @ 10:27 pm

Those of you using Internet Explorer are experiencing some problems with the site. Really not sure why it is not working in IE. It is coming up without a hitch in Firefox, so if you have both go with Firefox. That is not really a solution so much as a work-around, I know, but this is not an area of expertise for me.

Checking the site in IE, I also get just two posts and the layout is screwed up. The error message says that there is a “Syntax Error” in line 147. Great.

My hosting company has been having some major network/router issues. I’m not sure if that is the reason for the problem. I haven’t done anything to the site in the last couple days, so I’m hoping this is temporary.

Personally, I highly recommend using Firefox anyways. Loads a lot faster. Runs smoother. It imports bookmarks from IE with ease. The add-ons and extensions are tremendous. The only time I use IE is for certain jobs that require it, along with the all-access site for Pitt (yet another reason I don’t look at it that much).

UPDATE: The offending code from an earlier post has been removed. Thanks to Stuart for letting me know. I use an extension called “Adblock Plus” in Firefox. Tremendously effective adblocker that doesn’t just block ads and pop-ups. It essentially keeps them from showing up by (I guess) suppressing the code. Unfortunately the code is still there, so when I cut and pasted a bit from a story, the code was still there and I put it in the post.





Here’s the problem with your website: You have an ad that tries to run some crap JavaScript…

its starts with “”…and runs until the next …if you remove that ad, the site runs fine.

Its some sort of mlive.com ad…and its screwing us all up with IE.

You’re welcome. No charge this time.

Ok…well, i guess the comments won’t allow me to paste the exact code to remove. Search for “JavaScript1.1” and remove that ad, from the opening paragraph tag to the next paragraph tag, and that’ll fix it. I’ll email it to your email address too.

I emailed the code you needed to remove to pittblather at gmail.com – i’m not sure why an ad was trying to be inserted in the middle of a post….

Anything to get more people to switch to firefox or opera. Please stop using non-standards compliant browsers (IE).
