Internet Explorer 6 - 7 --> click a link and LS gets Stalled

[Mone]

Internet Explorer 7 and previous versions have a strange behavior dealing with links containing "javascript:" hrefs.

In fact if an HTML "A" element similar to the one below is used in a push-page to run javascript code, then the streaming gets stopped:

<a href="javascript:myStuff()">Click</a>

You can use a link like this one to avoid the problem:

<a href="#" onclick="myStuff()">Click</a>

The issue is solved with IE8

If you have no chance to change those links because them are generated by something like an ASP.NET control, check this thread.

This can be avoided with

<a href="#" onclick="myStuff(); return false;">Click</a>

Thus the href is not considered at all.
