| IE 7 vs BoatDesign.net I've ?upgraded? to IE version 7. Something has changed, when I try to post feedback to a post I get an "Error on page" message. Anyone have any idea what I have to change to get the feedback link to work again? Thanks, Randy

| Just installed IE 7.0.5730.11 on XP SP2 and I'm not seeing any errors here. I don't want to sound like a bad tech support agent, but could you clear your browser's cache to make sure there isn't a corrupt file being cached. Anyone else getting errors? |

| If I click on report post, I get the pop up that allows me to leave a message. If I click on Leave Feedback I get the error message. Very odd. ![]()

| Ok, If I right click on Post Feedback and select "Open in New Tab" it works. It just doesn't open with a left click. curiouser and curiouser ![]() |

| Do the Search This Thread, Rate this Thread, and Thread Tools dropdown menus work fine or produce the same error? |

It has to do with reputation.php and the new "tab" function in IE7

| I changed to FireFox three years ago, it is extremely fast and never had any problems, pop-ups, viruses etc usually associated with IE. Also forum friendly and I visits quite a few over a wide spectrum. Currently I'm running version two and you have to experience it yourself....it even spell checked as I was typing this post ![]()

| I've had the misfortune of encountering IE7 too. It is absolutely perfect for browsing the microsoft.com domain but is absolute crap outside MS's own sites. It routinely crashes and the problems you describe with mini-windows, scripts, etc. occur everywhere. The main problem appears to be that IE is still not fully compliant with basic web standards, it relies on a lot of proprietary protocols that don't always translate well to the other 97% of the internet. I use Firefox for darn near everything. A friend ran some benchmarking on about a half-dozen browsers about two years back... Firefox and Netscape (built on the Firefox engine now) were on average almost twice as fast as IE on just about every site tested; Opera was a hair faster yet. And that's on dial-up. Firefox 2, which I've been running for a few weeks, is even better.
