Java Script Error Over & Over?

[EasyUserName]

Ok, I get that maybe my laptop is out of date re Java - but I've just been getting the error message today at work too! I have to click on the "ok" message half a dozen times each time I want to read a thread.

Any ideas on where I am now going wrong? It's a new problem to me - was fine last time I looked, a few days ago.

Are you using IE?

I always find that is usually the issue. I was getting it loads last night on the new pooter at home but installed Chrome earlier today.

I think it may be some adverts...

I get it at home sometimes and at work sometimes but not all the time - even looking at the same thread again 10mins later it doesn't happen. I wonder if it's a problem with how one or two of the adverts are programmed and that maybe it stops happening when the ad sequence changes and a different advert appears.

Does this even make any sense?

I get the same error using IE8. I have to accept the error for each post in the thread before it goes away.

No problems using Chrome though.

Apologies for this problem.

There's a javascript error in the upgraded forums software, which has been reported to the software makers. I hope they fix it very soon.

People can avoid seeing the error message if they're using Firefox or Chrome - it only appears in front of users which are using Internet Explorer (and perhaps not all versions of IE).

fingers crossed, it might now be cured.

If it's still happening please post here to let me know.

Still happening for me but I am using IE.

Thanks.

Any chance that you could post a screen-shot that shows what the error message says, or type what it says? I'll at least then know if it's the same problem, or a different one.

(I can't replicate the errors on my 5 computers here).

thanks - am pretty sure it's the same error.

Hopefully it'll be sorted with the next 24 hours.
