IE 7/8 Operation Error In XP/Vista

IE operation errors occuring on load of this webpage i'm working on

Hey Guys,

I have been working on this site and everything is all good in Firefox and Chrome but in IE 7/8 I'm getting an odd operation error that is causing the page to load incorrectly. I've tried to debug and run code tests, but I can seem to fix the issue. Any help would be much appreciated.

Its all running through Wordpress Mu as well, but I feel like that should be the issue.

Thanks again.

Hello tw0manri0t, and welcome to the forums

This sounds like a script problem. Check to see if you are running a script within an element that has instructions to to modify one of its parent - or ancestor - elements. It could be as simple as a previous element that is missing its close tag and IE's error recovery doesn't patch up that problem. So the unclosed element becomes an accidental containing element for the script.

It's been a bugaboo in IE for quite a while. You might first want to check the W3C Validator for HTML [validator.w3.org], just to be sure about closed tags.

I have checked through the validator and although there are some random errors the only one that jumps out at me is this

Line 494, Column 14: there is no attribute "onClick".

<p><a onClick="toggle3('menu1Image','menu1List');"><img id="menu1Image" src="htt

basically i need this there as it toggles to show more text or hide text. could that be the issue? and how could I fix it?
