Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up IE8 gives error “Invalid argument” when using prototype.js, how do I find where the error is? up vote 3 down vote favorite I have a fairly complex piece of Javascript that works flawlessly with no errors in Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Opera. However, as tends to always be the endlessly annoying case, it completely fails in Internet Explorer. I have tested in IE7 and IE8 and get the same error: Invalid argument. prototype.js, line 2216, character 9 I am using Prototype 1.6.1 hosted through Google. The error given isn't very helpful since it doesn't tell me where in my actual code the error is occurring. The line mentioned in the error is the 6th line from the bottom in the following code: setStyle: function(element, styles) { element = $(element); var elementStyle = element.style, match; if (Object.isString(styles)) { element.style.cssText += ';' + styles; return styles.include('opacity') ? element.setOpacity(styles.match(/opacity:\s*(\d?\.?\d*)/)[1]) : element; } for (var property in styles) if (property == 'opacity') element.setOpacity(styles[property]); else elementStyle[(property == 'float' || property == 'cssFloat') ? (Object.isUndefined(elementStyle.styleFloat) ? 'cssFloat' : 'styleFloat') : property] = styles[property]; return element; }, Since it is in the setStyle block of code, I assume the error occurs when I am setting style attributes for some element. However, I call setStyle over 100 times in this script and have been trying to figure out where exactly the error is occurring for several hours. Is there anything I can do to help myself in f

This only happens in a situation where I have a main page that has several IFrames, and it only happens when I have one particular IFrame (the one pointed to by the URL in the error message), and that http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1008290/invalid-argument-error-in-ie-in-a-line-number-that-doesnt-exist IFrame is invisible at the time of loading. I've narrowed it up to there, but I still can't find anything more specific... The IFrame in question doesn't have 454 lines in its HTML, nor do any of the JS files referred by it. I tried attaching VS to iexplore.exe as a debugger, and it breaks when the error occurs, but then tells me "There is no source code available for the current location"... Any suggestions on how I can go about chasing this one? UPDATE: I found this problem through brute-force, basically, commenting everything out and uncommenting randomly... But the question still stands: what is the rational way to find where the error is, when IE reports the wrong line number / file? javascript internet-explorer debugging share|improve this question edited Oct 2 '10 at 20:46 community wiki 4 revsDaniel Magliola It's really a difficult question to answer without being able to see the whole problem. Have you tried debugging in Firefox or opera? Open it in one of those and check the error console for perhaps a more helpful error message. –Ian Elliott Jun 17 '09 at 16:54 Firefox's firebug plugin makes debugging much, much simpler. I suggest trying that out on the page. –Ben Hughes Jun 17 '

[SOLVED] JavaScript Error in IE8 invalid argument - Webpage error details "Message: Invalid argument." By: Deepa N Tweet August 01, 2012 - 23:35 0 Comments Javascript We were testing our newly implemented modal popup for a login functionality. It was working pretty good in Firefox, Opera, and Chrome but not in IE8. When attempts to login by clicking on a invalid argument javascript login link the login modal was not appearing in IE8. Firebug said nothing, but jquery-1.7.2.min.js in IE showed the following error: Message: Invalid argument. Line: 4 Char: 190 Code: 0 URI: http:// example.com/files/js/js_05f008a1c47b8161d7e4a8e6bbff1b3f_0.js The referred line is as follows: this.parentNode.insertBefore( a, this.nextSibling ); The surrounding script is as follows: after:function() { if (this[0]&&this[0].parentNode) { return this.domManip(arguments,!1,function(a) { this.parentNode.insertBefore(a,this.nextSibling); }); } if (arguments.length) { var a=this.pushStack(this,"after",arguments); a.push.apply(a,f.clean(arguments)); return a; } } Here’s how to deal (how we dealt with) this issue: First of all, when you identify some js error in IE be sure that it is because of violating the standards. To start off, just check for HTML errors and fix them one by one. All you had to do in this case was: Perform HTML Validation using http://validator.w3.org/ Check for HTML errors. For details about the most common errors found during xhtml validation, refer this. Correct the listed HTML Errors one by one. Try the sam

Interesting, the latest version of jQuery is 1.4.2 - which version of WordPress / Levitation are you using? Also, which plugins do you have active? If you disable them all does the slider function correctly? Best regards, James August 10, 2010 at 4:50 am #32140 swiftmarketingParticipant Thank you for trying to help us out. We are using WordPress 3.0 and looks like we are using Levitation Template Version: 1.3.1 We have disabled all Plugins. (Akismet, & Hello Dolly) Just a note. The site works fine on Firefox (Window 7 & Ubunto OS), Apple Safari (Windows 7 and Apple OS 10….) Issues we have is on IE 8 in combination with Window XP and 7. Thank you August 10, 2010 at 2:07 pm #32141 James MorrisonParticipant Hi! This may be a bug in the theme. I'll try a clean install and test in IE8 / Win XP & 7 and let you know once I've got it up and running. Regards, James August 11, 2010 at 10:17 am #32142 swiftmarketingParticipant Hi James, We also tested it with Google Chrome browser and it works fine. So it looks like It's only with IE8 ( may be IE7) browser's which is causing the issue. We even tried inserting a ( temporary fix) code so that IE8 will emulate IE7
