ie6 "memory could not be read" help!

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

Hi all,

With IE6,

After the pages i developed was loaded, there seems to be no problem,
but when you then click a link, refresh the page, etc. it shows "memory
could not be 'read'" error message.

However, when you load other sites, google.com, for example, there is no
such problem.

Anybody knows how to fix this problem?

Any help is appreciated & thanks in advance.

Since this post is not PHP-related, I'll continue the trend. Are
people still using IE6? In sites I design, I prevent the user from
viewing it. If they're still on IE6, I don't want them to use my sites.

Cheers,

Yeah, the browser is nearly 15 years old!

RE: ie6 "memory could not be read" help!

Wow. IMHO that is a really bad stance to take on IE 6. Most offices still
have IE 6 for whatever reason. If you block them then you are blocking
possible clients. There is still a large percentage that still use it.

Re: ie6 "memory could not be read" help!

Yes, there is A LOT.

to make u aware that this is the last version be able to run under windows
2000. windows 2000 however is the last professional version of windows made
by microsoft. I don't know any bigger company using other os. All banks,
stock traders (wall street etc.) are still using 2k. Microsoft wanted in
2005 to stopp maintaining 2k but still until today they improving the os.

preventing IE6 from viewing ur sites is cutting away all professional window
users.

I think that percentage depends on the target audience. There was a
kerfuffle several months back (maybe a year ago now?) when 37signals
announced that they would no longer work around IE6's limitations in
Basecamp. A lot of people presented the above argument in the support
forums and they said, "We've analyzed our logs and we know how many of
our users run IE6, and it's not very many".

My preference is to make sure my stuff is functional in IE6, but to
forget about pixel-perfect. But I tend to go light on Javascript in
general, so it's not that big of a deal usually.

I'd go to say that for general websites, things like the failed PNG
transparency issue in IE6 can be ignored. Yes, your sites will look a
bit rubbish in the browser if you use a lot of transparent PNGs for
visual effects, but it will remain functional. That is not so if your
site relies too heavily on some functions of Javascript. At the end of
the day, stats are meaningless unless they apply to your own site.

I bought a Windows XP PC about three years ago with IE6 on it (I
normally do all my work in Linux). I haven't upgraded it, and I can't
imagine why the average user would. If it ain't broke (and most users
wouldn't consider IE6 broken), don't fix it.

I will say this, though. Since I normally browse with Firefox on Linux,
if a site gets pissy with me and insists I use IE or Mozilla on Windows,
I typically don't go there anymore. So if you're interested in driving
off people who are less technologically advanced than you'd like, I
think you'll probably succeed.

I wonder what should happen if your customers will ask you PHP 3 applicatio=

application for PHP3 ... well=2C IE 6 has the same impact for the Web Devel=

I am not saying we can dismiss its support=2C specially if we work behind b=
anks or big lazy but somehow well paid companies administrators whose do no=

ages ago to something more robust=2C with better performances=2C standards=
support=2C and more powerful=2C but at least we should never encourage our=
customers to keep using it=2C they are simply slowly cutting their self ou=

Security and Legacy? IE6 is the most bugged browser in the history of the w=

I agree in general, but eventually Microsoft will stop releasing
security updates for IE6. It's hard to tell exactly, but right now it
seems like that may happen next July:
http://support.microsoft.com/gp/lifesupsps/#Internet_Explore r

At that point I would consider IE6 "broke".

In a lot of the work I do these days I have to support IE6 because it's
the defacto browser in various government departments. It'll be sometime
before it is completely ousted.
