Stemming IE6 "operation aborted"
Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2008 10:23 pm
If you are using SWFObject or a hand fill of other types of add-ons, You may have gotten "operation aborted" in IE6, here is one trick to solve this.
Including a closing tag will prevent this bug in Internet Explorer being triggered. Because for HTML 4 compliant pages (a closing base tag is forbidden under HTML 4), you could use Internet Explorer conditional comments to keep your HTML valid and still include a closing base tag for HTML 4 documents:
in function.metadata.php (~line 41)
change
$result .= "\n\n";
to
$result .= "\n\n";
use at you on risk, though it should cause no harm, it's your site and your responsibility.
