Aweber Javascript errors crash Internet Explorer

11 June 2009 One Comment

I’ve been using Aweber for a while and they are definetly a must have nowadays for any real webmaster.

However, I think Aweber is doing their best to loose as many clients as possible.

First of all they increased the price to ridiculous high amounts. Any smart person knows that there are Aweber PLR sites, which still offer the old price e.g. Profollow (ProSender sucks they have the new price).

Then today I noticed a major flaw (I almost freaked out). Your fancy aweber scripts makes the internet explorer crash. Can you even imagine that? They are in business for 10 years+ and they make your sites crash. Ridiculous. Sorry, but I’m very disappointed. It was sheer luck that I noticed it and I already lost tons of visitors because of that.

Errors:

Javascript error: “Object not found”. (IE8)
Javascript error: Internet Explorer Cannot Open the Internet Site Operation Aborted. (IE7) – Some sources say Kontera has the same problem.

Luckily, I do not give up that easily. I found a workaround for the second error.

Add this to your javascript code:

defer="defer"

It could look like this now:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://forms.profollow.com/form/xx/xxxx.js" defer="defer"></script>
