Hello,
I've been getting syntax error's on all of my pages since MS's release of update KB 939653 on Oct 9.
I have a EO Web menu on the Master page for my site. On the default (before login) page, the control is present but hidden. The following error is thrown 8 times:
Error: syntax error
Source File: http://localhost/elis17/eo_web.ashx?id=7e2129f8-8ebe-451d-a1a6-694cdc211761
Line: 2
Source Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
The errors aren't happening on the internal pages (after login), where the menu isn't hidden.
Any ideas?

Hi Brian,
Try to copy eo_web.ashx to the root directory of your application.
Thanks

Thanks for your quick reply!
I have already done that, that was my first thought.

Do you have the page online so that we can take a look?

I'm not sure how much it will help, I got the detailed error above from Firefox - the error seem to be identical. The errors were also always present in firefox, but seem to only start in IE after the above update was installed. Here's the link to the page: http://63.116.103.130/Default.aspx

Hi Brian, The error occurs because the menu uses eo_web.ashx to render JavaScript files it needed, but access to eo_web.ashx itself were denied due to your permission settings. Try to add the following block into your web.config should fix the issue:
Code: HTML/ASPX
<location path="eo_web.ashx">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="?" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
Thanks

Thanks,
That fixed the problem. Could you provide any insight into why this wasn't a problem before the MS update was applied?

Hi Brian,
It should fail even before the update. The error should have always been there, because IE expects a JavaScript file, while the server responded with the Login page (not only the request to Default.aspx is being redirect to login page, but all request to eo_web.ashx are also being redirect to the login page). My guess is that before the update, IE ignores the error (without reporting it) and with the update IE started to report it.
Thanks
