Here is the problem as described from another ajax control:
http://ajaxcontroltoolkit.codeplex.com/workitem/27009
http://ajaxcontroltoolkit.codeplex.com/workitem/27009
Here is the generated code from the dialog:
<IMG style="WIDTH: 20px; DISPLAY: none; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; HEIGHT: 20px; TOP: 1px; CURSOR: pointer; LEFT: 1px" id="awfrmmb-waitpic" class="image awimg" alt="indicator_remembermilk_orange" src="http://localhost/ip/Images/indicator_remembermilk_orange.gif" /> <LABEL style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; WIDTH: 394px; DISPLAY: block; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; HEIGHT: 60px; TOP: 19px; LEFT: 92px" id="awfrmmb-albl" class="label awlbl">4 records were marked Paid!</LABEL>
In IE8, and only IE8, sometimes on .wmessagebox calls I get this js error:
Webpage error details
Message: Can't move focus to the control because it is invisible, not enabled, or of a type that does not accept the focus.
Line: 1
Char: 25361
Code: 0
URI: http://localhost/awScripts/FoxInCloud.js
The dialog message box is open and displayed, but will not accept clicks or input, in effect stranding the user on that dialog.
It never happens in IE9, FF, Chrome.
Unfortunately IE8 support is an absolute requirement for this project, all the end user workstations run XP and IE8
Any ideas?
