How to Fix “Internet Explorer Cannot Open the Internet Site- Operation Aborted” Error

Of late few of my blog readers using Internet explorer pointed out to me that there was some error happening while loading my blog in IE. Around 25% of my readers use Internet Explorer to read my blog. I check my blog frequently in IE and many times I too encountered this error, but initially I thought it was some error in my browser. The error is really frustrating as it shows only in IE and not in Firefox or Opera or any other browser for that matter.

The nature of error is that it shows up when the site is loads completely. This is what you see when the error occurs.

Internet Explorer Error

Once you click OK, the page is replaced with “The Page cannot be Displayed” error. How to fix this error?

A bit of Googling gave me some idea into this error. This error can happen because of many reasons. Microsoft has even a patch for solving this error in IE.

1. This error can happen if Google Map API is present in the code. If you are getting this error because of Google Map API, then the fix for the problem is available here.

2. If you are not using Google API and still getting the error, then it could be because of this reason.

It is not possible append to the BODY element from script that isn’t a direct child to the BODY element

If there are any Javascripts running inside the body tag or inside a table which is directly a child of body, then most of the times this error is bound to happen. The solution is to move the script to the top or bottom of the body tag or even moving it after the body. The script can also be put inside a function and then calling it from window.onload. Another solution to this problem is to add defer=”defer” in the script tag.

I checked my code for scripts which were running inside the body tag and was a direct child to it. Then I moved all my Javascript codes to bottom of the body tag so that it will not interfere while parsing the page. I tested my blog in IE after I made the change and I could see the difference, the error was not happening any more. I checked in different versions of IE to confirm. In case you are using IE and still getting the error on my blog, please do inform me.

    @Nuts & Milk,
    Firefox is best one and popular among bloggers, but IE is still the most popular browser. Although I dont use IE, I corrected this error for the 25% of my site visitors. 😀

    It doesnt occur every time when a page is loaded in to the browser, It does happen only few times, once the error occurs, if you reload it once, then the problem should not arise, May be there could be another reason

    Its does not occur every time and reloading the page solves the problem. This was the same case with me. A script inside the body was causing this error.

    Ok, here’s a twist –
    there is a site that gives me the error when I go there directly , but doesn’t when I go through an anonymous proxy (both cases using IE explorer) Any thoughts on that? I’m wondering if this ner-do-well is somehow using this as a way to screen by IP…

    It may be due to the fact that proxies may be blocking scripts, so it may not show the error.

    Hello, I’ve read your fix, but I’m afraid I still don’t understand. 🙁 I’ve been using the same webpage for the past two years as my homepage, and just today it started giving me this error. I did not make the script for the page, all I do is run the account (deviantART). It involves no script editing, and from all the googling I’ve done, every person with this problem has it on a page that involves something where they control it.

    I’m not very computer savvy when it comes to code, but give me a link and I can follow instructions! Speaking of which, do you have a link to the Microsoft fix? I cann’t find it and am very frustrated that I can’t check my deviantART messages because of a stupid glitch. 🙁

    Getting this as well when logging ONTO GMAIL. A single reload usually does fix it, but sometimes even reloading doesn’t work.

    Since I have no control over Gmail code, telling me to mess with the body tag is NOT an option.

    Also, unfortunately using a different browser is NOT an option for me since my employer relies heavily on MS technology.

    That being said, I should also point out that I NEVER installed anything google (API or otherwise) on any of my machines, so I don’t see how the google API fix will solve anything.

    Can someone please help?

    I had this error where in the onmouseover event of elements on my page was code referencing other elements by ID. No mouseovers should occur untill the page is entirely loaded. When I load the page while the mouse is already on the position where the element will be rendered that has an ‘onmouseover’ event, this error occured. I solved it by disabling all onmouseover code untill a flag startMouseOvers was set to true in the body.onload event.

    Hey guys.

    Ive spent HOURS and HOURS and HOURS trying to fix this.

    I did everything any1 could think of!

    On my page, i have at least 10 scripts. mootools, lightbox, and some other marketing scripts.

    The FLV Video was loading and working 100% fine on Firefox.
    but it wouldnt load on IE!

    When i added the defer=”defer” something else would stop working.

    The window.addEvent(’domready’ and ‘load’) did not work…
    anyhow, nothing worked!

    THE SOLUTION IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Take your all the way to

    OUT OF THE BODY TAG!

    This is one of the reasons that it doesnt work.

    Now…

    Put the script inside the HEAD TAG!

    function startvideo()
    {
    var s1 = new SWFObject(’player.swf’,’ply’,’210?,’170?,’9?,’#FFFFFF’);
    etc…

    IMPORTANT!!!

    Now on the Body tag, add the following:

    AND THERE YOU GO!

    cheers!

    To everybody who started getting this error just yesterday or today, check to see if your website is using the tracking software Sitemeter. Their javascript version is now dishing out this error to every IE users and it’s hit big sites such as Mashable and Perez Hilton among thousands of others. To fix it, simply remove the tracking code altogether or switch to their plain HTML version.

    Just to say, if anyone is still having this problem and using maps.google.com, have a look at the google api version the url is referencing. The “v” query param specifies the version. Use version 2.118 (as in &v=2.118). You have to be version specific here. This version *does* work with IE6. Just stating “&v=2” will NOT work.

    Hope this helps someone 🙂

    Another cause for this error message:
    Having a self-closed (div) tag near Javascript may cause this error.
    Having developed an app to run as application/xml+xhtml in Firefox, I needed to back-port it so it also runs in IE. Self-closing divs are allowed in XHTML 1.1 when served as application/xml+xhtml, but IE chokes when it sees those when served as text/html.

    if you’re having this problem, check for any unusual self-closed tags ().

    more the problem if you use a script and do not include the full path to it.

    I added the Google translator tool to my blog and now I’m getting that error in IE also when I click on translate. I took it off and added the wordpress translation plugin. I am still getting that error. I am not getting that error when I use the tool on other people’s blogs using that same plugin. That’s weird isn’t it? Once the plugin is installed, you just drag the widget into the sidebar so you can’t really edit. What should I do?

    Apparemment l’appel à Lightbox, normalement réalisé quand la page est complètement chargée, est réalisé à la fin du fichier lightbox.js.

    Sauf que la vérification du chargement complet de la page n’a pas l’air très efficace.

    Je conseille donc d’utiliser la fonction “addEvent” déclarée ci-dessous :

    function addEvent(obj, evType, fcn) {
    if (obj.addEventListener) {
    obj.addEventListener(evType, fcn, true);
    return true;
    } else if (obj.attachEvent) {
    var r = obj.attachEvent(“on”+evType, fcn);
    return r;
    } else {
    return false;
    }
    return true;
    }

    Et donc de modifier l’appel avec cette fonction. On a donc :

    addEvent(window,’load’, function() {
    new Lightbox();
    });
    // Ici l’ancien appel :
    //document.observe(‘dom:loaded’, function () { new Lightbox(); });

    Cela corrige le problème.

    “plz can you help me….i have the same problem…and i can’t fix it…”

    You have to move your javascript to the top or bottom of the body tag

    this is your website content area

    you can do this in code view buy using notpad and saving as all files> index.html
    download your index.html page from your server host and edit the javascript in code view, now reupload to your server and view 🙂

    People, you are making this far too complex…Forget about modifying code!…The work around is:

    The work around is to go into IE —> Tools —> Options —> Advanced —> Put a check in the box “Use HTTP 1.1 through proxy connections” Apply/OK

    Worked for every user so far where I work!

    Find the link or shortcut to the site. Go to Tools, Internet Options, Security, Restricted sites, Sites, Add

    The site should now be secure and your computer should open it.

    Simply De-Activate LightBox 2 plugin. Then runs your site. it will work fine.

    For over a year I have been having trouble logging into sites that use a USER Name and Password with IE8.

    First noticed it with Konica Minolta Print servers then HP Print servers and Sonicwall Firewall. Now it is spread to numerous sites and even our web mail servers and Network Solutions Servers. Microsoft dies not seem to see anything wrong and the issues and Network Solutions says to use IIE ver 6. I use Mozilla for anything that does not display properly or will not log me in after the first try. If anyone has any details or fixes I would appreciate hearing them.

    It is even hitting Outlook Mail that uses POP servers now. They may or may not log in correctly with NO Cahange to the setup other than IE8 upgrade/rollout. It is only going to get worse with the latest push out of IE8.

    Thanks!

    I’ve actually found that there may be some third party add-ons that alter the page content from within. Try disabling various browser add-ons to find out what the culprit is. I’ve found that it was my IE7 Pro add-on that was causing issues (perhaps with its live RSS clickable link list after an html scrape).

    Go to Tools, Manage Add-ons, Enable or disable add-ons, then take’em out one by one until the site in question loads correctly. Then you know the culprit add-on.

    Facebook and Bing recently have been causing me problems. While it is an annoyance, it’s apparently a design choice (though the redirection to an error page is really annoying) – the error itself is understandable, programmatically. Modify closed tags. Script that tries to edit an incomplete/unclosed element, IMO, is faulty, and should be fixed (such as moving script to the beginning or end of the page content, or to the HEAD block).

    The other solution is to move the java script below the body section and that wont work for mine. I have a Gavick Template (YourFlash) and the html files dont really have nothing in them. Can somebody checkit out? I dont know what to do, can somebody help??? http://tiraerax.com

    You can turn off friendly HTTP error messages in Internet Explorer. This workaround still lets the error message appear. However, Internet Explorer does not move away from the page after the error occurs. This workaround works only for Internet Explorer 6.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    1. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
    2. On the Advanced tab, click to clear the Show friendly HTTP error messages check box under the Browsing section, and then click OK.
    3. Close the browser.

    Anyone who has the operation aborted error when accessing some websites by IE7 (vista home premium), the error will be fixed after upgrading to IE8. I did that and it works! I’m using vista home premium edition so not sure if that happens to other op system running ie7. I think some web pages new designs do not supportor IE7 or IE just misses some components required by the webpage design to allow it to load properly.
