Just testing a site before I add the finishing touches and go live… and as ever (surprise, surprise) when the page loads, I get the error message [Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet Site… operation aborted]. It loads fine in Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Opera but sadly it needs to work with IE as well. AAARGH!
If any of you web guru’s out there could help shed light on my predicament and help me solve this problem I’d seriously appreciate it.
I’ve run it through BrowserLab - IE7 won’t load the page at all, IE8 does load the page but the central text content is missing.

It’s a strange one. There is no reason the text shouldn’t appear as it was all created as a standard box model. I guess I’ll keep fiddling and see what gives.
I have an old OS9 mac running here and I just tried it in IE5.5 apart from a couple of items breaking - css menus and the map navigation on the left hand side (because of the browser limitations), the page is displayed properly.

Weird isn’t it. Any ideas as to why there’s so many problems with IE7? I have just gone through the whole document and can’t see anything that should cause it problems.
Had the same problem just a couple of days ago. Seems that IE is intolerant of some of the code produced by Freeway. I used (on the advice of another Freeway user) a markup Validation service at http://validator.w3.org/
It looks at your website and gives you instant analysis. It is free.
