If you don’t know which operation aborted the error, here is the Microsoft KB article about it, http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/927917 . There are also tons of posts about it, but a simple answer to this happens; the error only occurs if you try to manipulate the DOM element using JavaScript before the element you are trying to manipulate is loaded.
I know how Internet Explorer (IE), the famous Aborted operation, happens, and I know how to fix it. I have a problem - a very strange scenario. Testing locally and on a development machine with IE7, I never get interruptions from the operation (both sites work like http).
However, on our client testing site this happens all the time. Unfortunately, my test environment is not the same as the client test environment, so it adds some variables to the mix, but the main difference that I see is that the client test site uses SSL.
Has anyone ever made the “Operation Fixed” error for the SSL site only?
Another thought that appeared in my head was that it was a delay problem. Locally, the site loads almost instantly, while on my client testing site the page loads slower. Therefore, keeping this in mind, I launched Fiddler and simulated performance for working at old modem speeds in schools, but not a single operation interrupted the error locally or on our own testing server.
FYI: The site is an ASP.NET 2.0 site using ASP.NET AJAX Extensions 1.0. The page with this issue also has the AJAX Control Toolkit Cascading Drop Down on it.
And yes, as far as I can tell, all the JavaScripts that manipulate the DOM are at the end of the markup, not at the beginning.
Any help or comments are appreciated.
