Edit entry causes IE operation abort error

Post by koltregaskes »

Hello,

I've got a blog at http://squashyfrog.com/blog/, when I log in as admin and select to edit my latest entry entry (while using IE 7) I get an error:

Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site http://squashyfrog.com/blog/serendipity ... ity[id]=78 Operation aborted.

I've picked a few others at random and all entries do the same. It used to work but can't think what I've done to cause this (WYSIWYG editor??)

I've tried doing the same thing in Mozilla and Opera and they are fine.

Any ideas?

Hi!

Maybe your IE7 is configured for some strange proxy to use? "Cannot open Site" often means there's a network issue with the browser, or maybe a security settings that blocks access.

Possible, but the strange thing is that is used to work. Not really a problem as I can use Mozilla but is slightly annoying as WYSISYG editor doesn't work in it).

And I don't have any proxy set-up and wouldn't know what security setting to turn off to fix it, any ideas?

Hi!

I don't really use IE7, so I don't know about its new settings. But if it works in other browsers for you, it must be related to some setting in IE7.

Do you run any anti-spyware or antivirus software that might be hooking into IE7? Or maybe you need to turn off some phishing filters of IE7, or add your site to the list of trusted zones...

HTH,
