Site will not display in IE (2 posts)

    I've had this problem for weeks now, if I change the theme to default it works fine, I contacted the theme maker but he hasn't responded and has also not made a post on his blog for around a month.

    Theme works fine in FF, yet in IE it crashes, I have NO idea about debugging I looked on http://validator.w3.org/mysiteresults to check my page (the link will show you I have 46 errors) which I have no clue about.

    I tried to figure out firebug but thats all way too confusing to me, I did however find that IE8 has a debugger, and it says the problem it finds is:

    document.getElementById("StartMenu").style.left = "-1000px";

    What is wrong with this? How can I edit the themes .js to work in IE?

    http://blog.crazycraven.org is my site, I don't know if you will be able to see any errors from looking at the page in IE.

    Thanks in advance.

    That theme works by default in IE. That is most likely why the author has not responded. The error you are getting is also a common issue with IE, specifically with the way it handles some javascript.

    Short version: disable plugins and retest in IE. Re-activate one at a time until you find the culprit -or- remove javascript you have added and retest, until you find the issue.

    Read through this and see if it leads to anything helpful.

    Or go right to the source:

    Why do I receive an "Operation aborted" error message when I visit a Web page in Internet Explorer?
