Browser doesn't stop loading a page

2003-02-26 Thread Martin Moss
All,

Not much to go on I know, but has anybody ever had this problem?
When I load one of my webpages the browser never stops loading, e.g. the
page loads ok and I can see and interact with it, but the ie spinning globe
still keeps spinning and the status bar at the bottom of the page still
shows the page is loading something..

The process does seem to run and exit normally in my logs. I'm at a loss as
to what is causing it. This only happens on one specific page on my server.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Regards

Marty

IME this means you have an external resource (e.g., image, script, 
etc.) in the page that's not being loaded because the site is 
inaccessible or it's overloaded. Generally nothing to do with 
mod_perl :-)

We had this same problem a while back.  One of our developers pecked at it
for a couple of weeks off and on, and in our case it turned out to be
Javascript.  We had some links to the pages that would spin infinitely that
looked like:

a href=javscript:Foo();Link/a

we changed them to this:

a href= onclick=javscript:Foo(); return false;Link/a

and the problems went away.  Just thought I'd toss that out there.  It's
almost definitely not a mod_perl-related problem.

Yes I think you're right,

When I click on a link that takes me to the page in question the page simply
stays loading, but it Iclick into the URL Address bar and press enter to
reload the page the page loads fine without continuing to spin the globe.

I've tried making the changes you suggested below, but I think I'm missing
something else as the problem still occurs.
I've just managed to kill my dev machine with out of memory errors so I
think perhaps there is something else I'm doing wrong,
