I'm having trouble with IE8 (of course). For some reason it plainly refuses to load some js resources. It does not complain about errors in those files, however other javascript things that rely on the stuff in those files break.
So, I started working towards a minimal working example, but instead ended up with a minimal and still not working example. And I can't really reduce this any further. Needless to say, both the full code and the minimal example works perfectly in both Safari 4 and FF 3.5. The code below gives me the expected alert in those browsers, but in IE8 I get nothing.
http://myplace.com/test.html
<!DOCTYPE html
PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>abc</title>
<script type="application/javascript" src="http://myplace.com/js/ajax.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div>ok</div>
</body>
</html>
http://myplace.com/js/ajax.js
alert("ajax.js");
Moreover, I have:
1. Tools->Internet Options->Delete
2. Tools->Developer Tools->Cache->Always refresh from server
3. F5 (reload page, which actually and finally seems to reload things without having to clear history)
Any idea what goes wrong? Anyone who knows where (or if) I can see what happens with requests in IE8? I'm talking about an equivalent to Firebug->Net or Safari's webinspector->resources which in the above case shows me:
GET test.html 200 OK
GET ajax.js 200 OK
