For the Date issue try using 'now.getUTCFullYear()' instead of 'now.Getyear()' and what do you mean my hanging w/ IE7?Is it that it takes a while to load or just freezes?

A couple of my pages on my BarrySumpter.com are hanging with IE7.


http://www.barrysumpter.com/freelancing

and

http://www.barrysumpter.com/dotNetFreeLancing

----

Also, Using Mozilla Firefox, the Year from now.Getyear is returning 107 instead of 2007 on my banner.htm.
But returns 2007 correctly using IE7.

----

Any help on either of these issues would be greatly appreciated.


Darn it! Could a moderator move this post to the just plain ASP forum?

Thanks,
Barry G. Sumpter

'...now.getUTCFullYear()...' - Worked. Absolutely Brilliant! Thanks Champ.

Yes, hanging is a plural for hangs which is slang for the slang term freezes in this context.

IE7 freezes with a blank page.
For an extended period of time.

Firefox loads the same page very quickly.

Thanks for the assistance.

Thanks,

Both the Url's you specified works fine w/ both firefox and IE7.0 .Something else is causing you IE to freeze.Check you Task manager and see whether your IE7 uses a lot of resources(CPU,memory) when your page loads.Are these the only url's you are having problems with?

Yes, thanks for that confirmation.

You are correct it looks like I may be the only one who is having the freezing problem.
I should have had my testing cap on instead of my owners cap on.

What the?

No IE7 WITHOUT ADD-ONS - DOES seem to work properly on those pages.
I've only ran the source safe Integrate utility SSint.exe today after installing SSv6 a few weeks ago.
And returning to find vb6 didn't have menu items for ss6.

I'll reboot and have another go.

But only report back here if its not working.

Thanks,

OK, Good call. Its definitely one of the IE7 add-ons causing the problem.

Any suggestions as how to chase down which one?

Thanks,

Well the simplest way is to disable them one by one in order of theirimportance.Start with the onesthat you think are unnecessary.Only trial and error method would work here because you really cant say whats causing the problem by just looking at them.

OK After having my Testers cap on for the last 6 hours I've been able to deductively reason the problem then the answer.

Taking advice I disabled all non-microsoft IE Add-ons.

No Change - problem still presenting.

I diabled all IE Add-ons.

Again, No Change - problem still presenting.

I then again ran IE witout Add-ons from the desptop icon.

Well WTF, No Change - problem still presenting.

OK so its not the add-ons as suspected.

Testing on the other three computers here.
NO Problem all were loading barrysumpter.com and hyperlinking to freelancing or dotnetfreelancing without fail.

So I'ts my exact computer hyperlinking from barrysumpter.com.

So off to Frontpage 2003. Which is what i use to manage all the web pages.

The hyperlinks look fine.
What if I change the Hyperlink Properties | Target Frame
from New Window (_blank) to Whole Page (_top)
Who knows. Its worth a try.
Freakin' worked! http://community.discountasp.net/emoticons/freaked.gif

http://community.discountasp.net/emoticons/yeah.gif Oh Yeah! Oh Yeah! http://community.discountasp.net/emoticons/yeah.gif

Turned all add-ons back on.

Still working.

----

The code listed above is for vb6.
And now works properly.

But still would like to know how to execute IE7 Without Add-ons thru code.


----

Just as an after thought.
I had turned off popup blocker and allowed all cookies.

I wonder if these could have affected it as well?











Thanks,

Hi vvsharma,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Yes, of course, deductive reasoning is the answer.

Anyone know how to fire IE7 without add-ons thru code?

Quick: Right-Click IE desktop icon | Properties | Programs (tab) | Manage add-ons (button at the bottom)

Mine was a very long list so wait for it...

----

To manage ADD ons without starting IE7:

In the Start menu right click on the IE7 icon at the top of the start menu.

Select Internet properties, Programs and at the bottom will be manage add-ons.

Here you can disable the various addons. Then when you start IE7 normally you can manipulate the add-ons like you would expect.

Hint start without add-ons. Note the disabled items in 'add-ons currently loaded in internet explorer' and use that list for your initial don't do list.

Thanks,
Barry G. Sumpter

Right Click the IE7 icon and choose "Start without Add-ons" instead of double clicking it !!
