Problem viewing Visualforce Page

Hello everyone,

I was wondering what is to be done to fix this problem from saying

Error:
Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site https://na3.salesforce.com/<Object-ID>
Operation aborted

 

Details on the page:
1. Page layout contains visual force page using extended controller on a custom object.
2. Works fine in Firefox, Safari, and Opera.
3. When accessing https://na3.salesforce.com/apex/visualForcePage?id=<Object-Id>, the same error pops up followed by

Error:
A Runtime Error has occurred.
Do you wish to debug?
Line 21
Error: Permission denied

Breaking on the debugger shows the following line highlighted

Code:
if (this.contentWindow.location.pathname != '/blank.html')

 which is part of

Code:
<iframe onload="if (this.contentWindow.location.pathname != '/blank.html') { if (true) { initContentPane('/apex/visualForcePage?id=<Object-Id>&amp;core.apexpages.devmode.url=1') } }" style="width: 100%; height: 100%" frameBorder="0" src="/blank.html" name="contentPane" id="contentPane"></iframe>

 

Clicking 'No' on the permission denied error box will load the infamous

Page:
Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

4. When accessing https://na3.salesforce.com/apex/visualForcePage, IE displays the page (with structures only and no data which is how the extended controller is written.)

what version of IE ?

This looks like an issue with the in page editor for Development Mode. For now (until my team can get this sorted out) do not use IE with development mode enabled for your user. FF/Safari are so much faster than IE that we typically do all our dev in one o those 2 browsers and test in IE for any browser compatibility issues using a non-devmode enabled user.

... and as Ron asked in a previous post what version of IE are you encountering this with? No known issues like what you describe with currently patched versions of IE 6 or 7.

Sorry for replying late..

I am testing in IE 7.

I am also developing in FF.
I tired disabling the developer mode in IE.

Results are different in my PC. (I wonder why).

Here is the new type of error I get on my PC.

Code:
Error: 

Webpage Script Errors

The intended page (with data) is displayed in addition to this error.

Does this happen with all of your pages? I have not done a whole lot of testing with IE7 but I know that it works.

If it does not happen with all of the pages, can you post your page code? I wonder if you've got some wonky javascript in there that's interfering with the rest of the page, though it seems unlikely...

This looks like you are actually running IE 8 beta and not IE 7 as your browser - salesforce is a ways off from supporting IE 8 at this time (typically the next major release (e.g. 2-3 months) after the new version of the browser is released).

There was a javascript code in the body calling a function contained in a script linked in head. The code would have jquery-cluetip create cluetips. I setTimeout(function() {...}, 100) the code which seems to fix the issue of page load errors.

Another problem has surface which I cannot even put in words.

Screencast is in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1j1vF37Jp8 . I know it would be hard to tell from the video in youtube but you should see the color block changing which is the problem.

IE8b doesn't have such problems however.

Thanks to the pointer.

The 'HTML Parsing Error' was indeed from IE8b. My apologies for having that posted! Thanks.
