Fighting with Google API's and IE

Using the google API's on the 'contact us' page we ran into a big problem when view using IE. Everytime you visited the page it would come up with "Operation Aborted" and then not display the page at all.

After some research I found a blog by Ryan Grant describing the problem and a few solutions. Result!

Small snag however, due to the way that DNN structures its pages, none of these solutions would work out of the box. With some quick thinking and a helpful function in DNN (AddBodyOnloadEventHandler ) I managed to get the page to load correctly.

Cosmetics (last - but certainly not least)


It's frustrating with such a project that the cosmetic elements are usually the last to be completed. Whilst they're probably the strongest definition of completeness, the cosmetics are also the least intrusive parts of the development.

Still, it's coming along nicely - great job guys.
