Operation Aborted in IE 6 and IE 7

powered by Wordpress Multibox Plugin v1.3.5

It’s been a long time since I don’t use any javascript plugin for my images, so having problem with any plugin will never enter to my mind until I open my site in Internet Explorer 6 and IE7. At first everything looks fine, the loading is fast and when almost don, partially open that was when the page ultimately crash, resulting in an pop up errore stating that “Internet Explorer cannot open the the internet site http://pinoyconsole.com. Operation Aborted”This is really a dreaded error only in Internet explore and not in Firefox, Opera and Chrome. I know were asking the same thing, why not stop using Internet explorer?. But in my site analytic almost 60% of my visitors still using Internet explorer, 40% IE7 and the remaining 20% IE6. So how much do I ignore them, to make story short my site must still compatible with any version of IE as possible.

After reading almost 30 pages of printed post as I twitter before I finally found the culprit of this error, it was the plugin “WordPress Multibox Plugin” it was the javascript that the IE cannot handle as far I know. You can find some Microsoft explanation here but it doesn’t make any sense at all. So let us solve this now if you are using the following plugin or function alike to Lightbox, lightbox2, thickbox, slimbox or Multibox WordPress plugin this solution may also apply to you.

How  To Fix it:

  1. Login to your WordPress Admin Panel.
  2. Go to “Plugins” tab and navigate to your plugins.
  3. Locate your “MulitBox” plugin or whatever -box plugin you are using and click Edit.
  4. Contol F -find the code wp_head and change this to wp_footer.
  5. Click Update File button and open your site again in Internet Explorer
  6. Come back here and say Thank you :)

    Nothing’s ever right in IE it seems. Even if everything’s perfectly coded, IE will always fine a way to place that key image at the bottom of the page.
