Run Time Error Help!

[sjm1027]

While surfing the Internet I am getting this Run time error. Anyone know what it is and how to stop it from popping up?

Thanks
Steve

That's not really specific.

Your system in quesiton is the one in your sig, correct?

Try scanning for spyware and viruses.

What browser are you using (and what version)

My wife got it when going to this web page. http://www.food.com/food/recipes

I am using IE 6.0.2800.1106.xxpsp1.020828-1920
128 bit

Yes the sig is the system I am talking about.
I have scanned for ads but I am pretty clean.

Thanks

Please see attached for error. Looks like line 4 problem

You'd be surprised how many runtime errors are the fault of shoddy craftsmanship, on the part of the page creator.

Do you have a pop up blocker? Sometimes you can actually block a pop up before the script is run causing an error during the loading of the page.

Give this a try.

If that doesn't work switch to Mozilla Firefox.

So this isn't a system problem, it's a web page problem?

No no blocker at this time.

Most of the time it is.

When building a web page all you do is put together what is basically a bunch of lines of code. They called it HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language). This was all decided a long time ago almost with the creation of Darpa Net, the first "internet".

All Web browsers do, is decode what was created and display it on your monitor. The reason why IE was so popular is because its "rules" for decoding were so much more lenient than Netscape, so it was easier to fudge your way through designing web pages. But there is no way to tell how everybody's computers are set up, who has what version of what etc.

When you don't use the corect coding when you finnish one of your lines it causes the web browser to become confused and it wants to "break" the faulty line. This results in your typical runtime error.

I don't know if you do any programming but the "runtime" is when the end user actually "runs" the program, or in this case script.

ex: This is a Javascript from one of my sites. {exclude "~"it's the only way to show the entire line}
<~a href="javascript:;"onclick="window.open('Album_2/1.htm','_blank','width=500,height=500,toolbar=no');">Relay For Life!<~/a>
Looks like,
Relay For Life!

This opens a new window on top of the existing window, without the toolbar, and the new window will be 500px by 500px.

If I use a (") when the code calls for a (') you will get a runtime error when you try to open my page.

I know it's tedious, but all programming is (I'm not saying that HTML is REAL programming so all you programmers out there don't get your panties in a bunch. I've dabbled in C++and PERL a bit and believe me Javascript and HTML pale in comparison).

Next time you are on the net check out what a page actually looks like. Click on VIEW and SOURCE. That's all a web page is. It all fits in a 10mb notepad.

I hope this helps!

Yes it helps and thanks for explaining it to me.
