Hi all,
If there is an easy to search for bug pattern in the HTML then I/someone can write a small Perl or Bash script to check the various code bases. Best to double check that we don't have some other places that might trigger a bang. Nuno can you advise, is it just an HTML page using a certain javascript method with a specific HTML tag in the page?

Hi Steve!
No, SiteStats doesn't use Wicket Modal Dialogs, but I think the problem is
related the ajax response after clicking the button - in SiteStats, IE
hanged after an ajax response and no other browsers experienced the same
issue.
I have just found the related SVN commit with the issue I experienced:
http://source.sakaiproject.org/viewsvn?view=revision&root=contrib&revision=63646
<http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/STAT-182>Actually, it was not related
with the doc type itself, but with the fact that there were a license
comment BEFORE the DOCTYPE - that crashed IE!
In your case - and if you do have *anything* before the doctype - you can
change the "base" html (extended by other wicket pages) or change only the
page served by the server after clicking the dialog button!
Hope this helps,
Nuno
