IE Error?

Had a friend of mine visit my site and he reported that he was getting an error using internet explorer when trying to view the gallery. I am on a Mac and could not re-create the error in safari or FireFox, it works great. I know Ie has many issues but I was wondering if there is something I could do to help this out.

here is the screen shot he sent me of the error:

any ideas????

Hi, no idea what this error should mean, maybe there is some more information on shadowbox forum, maybe there is some other extension which can cause it

If I look at the shadowbox with IE(7,8) I don't get any such error

Guess the problem was in IE8. I have a friend that develops web apps for a living. He looked at it and he gave me a line of code to place in the <meta>

The code is

Code: Select all

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />

I placed this in the mytemplate/index.php directly under <head> and the problem was corrected.
He explained to me that the meta tag forces IE8 into compatibility mode. Not sure but it worked for me.

by the way I am using ja_purity template.
