NOT FIXED (no count now though): IE7 & IE8 errors with this plugin was created by Jack Bremer

I am having huge problems with this plugin in IE7/8:

I get this error most times we refresh in IE7, and occasional (similar) errors with IE8:

Works BEAUTIFULLY in Firefox...

Any ideas, any more info you need?

Joomla v1.5.10
Disqus plugin v2.1

[UPDATE]Thought I had this fixed with details below, but still having "operation aborted" errors[/UPDATE]

OK, have fixed this with a PHP comment-out...

This gave me the clue: disqus.disqus.com/get_num_repliesjs_breaking_in_ie_7/

Go into the plugin's settings, and turn off (NO) both of these:
Display a comments counter/anchor link in listings (e.g. blogcategory)
Display a comments counter/anchor link in article view

Then go to:
/plugins/content/jw_disqus.php

Comment out the following (approx line 165):

			window.addEvent('domready', function(){
				// Smooth Scroll
				new SmoothScroll({
					duration: 500
				});
		    
				// Disqus Counter
				var links = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
				var query = '?';
				for(var i = 0; i < links.length; i++) {
					if(links[i].href.indexOf('#disqus_thread') >= 0) query += 'url' + i + '=' + encodeURIComponent(links[i].href) + '&';
				}
				var disqusScript = document.createElement('script');
				disqusScript.setAttribute('charset','utf-8');
				disqusScript.setAttribute('type','text/javascript');
				disqusScript.setAttribute('src','http://disqus.com/forums/{$disqusSubDomain}/get_num_replies.js' + query + '');
				var b = document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0];
				b.appendChild(disqusScript);
			});

becomes:

/*
			window.addEvent('domready', function(){
				// Smooth Scroll
				new SmoothScroll({
					duration: 500
				});
		    
				// Disqus Counter
				var links = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
				var query = '?';
				for(var i = 0; i < links.length; i++) {
					if(links[i].href.indexOf('#disqus_thread') >= 0) query += 'url' + i + '=' + encodeURIComponent(links[i].href) + '&';
				}
				var disqusScript = document.createElement('script');
				disqusScript.setAttribute('charset','utf-8');
				disqusScript.setAttribute('type','text/javascript');
				disqusScript.setAttribute('src','http://disqus.com/forums/{$disqusSubDomain}/get_num_replies.js' + query + '');
				var b = document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0];
				b.appendChild(disqusScript);
			});
*/

Sorted. Shame though - no more comments count.

I will add options so people won't have to comment the code.

May I ask what other extensions you have on, cause this could me a conflict in JS originating from another extension...

I'm having the exact same problem. I have narrowed it down to the embeding of youtube videos in my articles.

If I remove the video, the plugin works in IE.

Any suggestions would be great.

BTW Great plugin!! if only everyone would use Firefox :D
