Internet Explorer’s Operation Aborted and Latency Issue

If you don’t know what the operation aborted error is, here’s a Microsoft KB Article about it, http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/927917 .

Globally log exceptions from ASP.NET [ScriptService] services

I’m using the [System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService] tag to use web services callable from client side javascript.

Is there a workaround for IE 6/7 “Unspecified Error” bug when accessing offsetParent

I’m using jQuery UI’s draggable and droppable libraries in a simple ASP.NET proof of concept application. This page uses the ASP.NET AJAX UpdatePanel to do partial page updates. The page allows a user to drop an item into a trashcan div, which will invoke a postback that deletes a record from the database, then rebinds the list (and other controls) that the item was drug from. All of these elements (the draggable items and the trashcan div) are inside an ASP.NET UpdatePanel.
