Oh, wow. Someone found this in 2023! It is an old, old, OLD post and is no longer relevant. IE is no more, of course. And the WordPress editors are nearly 15 years better!
If any of you notice that you’re getting an error when you visit webpages, don’t blame it on the website in question!
I haven’t been able to find out what’s caused it, or how to fix it, but it is obviously being experienced by quite a few people. I suspect a recent Microsoft or other update over the last week or so.
It seems to have something to do with Javascript, but it doesn’t appear to affect how the pages display.
EDIT: Actually, it appears to have screwed up the TinyMCE Editor – the change text colour function – in WordPress. I flipped back to the FCKEditor.
EDIT: 27/12/2010: Still no news yet on a fix. All I can find is references to the error occurring when programming in javascript. But judging from the number of hits I’m getting it is affecting a lot of people.
EDIT: 27/12/2010: Well, I found a way around it. I installed the Internet Explorer 9 Beta.
If you fancy going down this route, get IE9 Beta from here.
EDIT: 8/2/2011: It looks like a definite solution has now been identified. Mike blogging – a blog – seems to indicate a bug in DivX software. With hindsight this was probably what was causing it for me, although the IE9 route also solved it.
