My job still has IE6 so if I can I'll test it there. IE5.5 feedback isn't worth focusing on ... not that IE6 matters either. Basically tell those people to upgrade their obsolete browser to something reasonably current.

I agree with you on both 5 and 6, but at the same time, if I did something to break them, it might come back to haunt me later.

Thanks for helping!

I get a pop-up saying

Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site

Try to disable js one by one to find the broken script.

I may have figured out which scripts are messing with IE6, but, they are not broken, not that I know of. Is there any way I can tell IE6 to just not use those scripts?

Can you provide links to these scripts?

global $Hit;
if( !$Hit->is_IE )
{
    // display scripts for non-IE browsers
}

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.comiclist.com/glossy/glossy.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.comiclist.com/reflex/reflex.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.comiclist.com/corner/corner.js"></script>

From here:

Move these scripts to _html_footer.inc.php

Thanks, that helped a great deal! The site will load in IE5 and 6 now. The home page still acts a little weird for IE7 and 6, but that may have to do with the iframes I am using there.

No worries :)

I made a copy of my default skin, minus the javascript, and uploaded it to a new folder, just for the home page. Looks good in IE 7 and 8 and acceptable in 5 and 6.

was there a solution to "Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site"? My client is telling me their guests are receiving this error and have received emails about it. It seems to happen to older versions of IE, as stated in this post.

Same solution. Disable scripts one by one, find the broken one and then fix or get rid of it.
