Thread Name: Tech: A new problem-script error
Subject: RE: Tech: A new problem
I didn't get that Script Debugger was in use, although we never know about Kendall.
IE, both IE6 and IE7 at least, will pop up that warning fairly often on some websites. I assume other browsers also would. I've also seen it in Outlook Express. It seems to happen most often with sites that have a lot of "linked in" content on the page, and if any of the links (internal or external to the site) doesn't come across with the right stuff you get a "script error."
In the few cases (very few) where I've actually looked at source code to check the line where the error happened, it's usually been an advertisement in a sidebar that didn't come up. Since those ads are often supplied from external sites - other than the one you're connected to - it's not surprising that occasionally one doesn't get served up.
There are sites where I probably would close out, but I'm not adventurous enough to be places where I get that nervous very often.
