To prevent this, you may have to change the positioning in which the widget loads, or load the widget in a popup window. </p> http://forums.sharethis.com/topic/sharethis-window-appears-behind-video-in-ie#post-886 Thu, 06 Nov 2008 01:34:56 +0000 charlesstricklin 886@http://forums.sharethis.com/ <p>The site in question is: <a href="http://helpmybusiness.com">Help!

That is, if my URL looks something like:<br /> <a href="http://www.mydomain.com/somefile.htm?someparam=somevalue" rel="nofollow">http://www.mydomain.com/somefile.htm?someparam=somevalue</a><br /> Is this known to not work entirely correctly?</p> <p>I have implemented ST for a site and it mostly works as I expect, but when using the Send/Email feature for a URL similar to my above example, the "preview thumb" does not work. The link itself works, but the preview image does not. It appears as if the ST "preview thumb" script is not correctly passing the URL. I believe it should be URL encoding them and it is not.</p> <p>Is this a known issue and are there any ways around it? </p> http://forums.sharethis.com/topic/sharethis-link-contains-causes-jump-to-page-top-in-ie7#post-785 Mon, 13 Oct 2008 16:03:34 +0000 ShareThisSupport 785@http://forums.sharethis.com/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>You've installed ShareThis correctly; this is a current bug in our product that we have fixed for a future release. I apologize for the inconvenience. In the meantime, you can get around this issue by manually assigning the URL you'd like to share with the ShareThis API's .addEntry function.

For our site, IE7 interprets it as a hyperlink with a value of "#" and in addition to displaying the ShareThis tabs, also shoots the user up to the top of the page.</p> <p>This is, needless to say, undesirable.</p> <p>I find it hard to believe that we're the only ones this is happening to!</p> <p>Did I set something up wrong?

We greatly apologize for the inconvenience, and your TypePad blogs will no longer hang in IE due to ShareThis. </p> <p>Thank you for your patience and for using ShareThis! </p> http://forums.sharethis.com/topic/sharethis-on-typepad-blogs-hanging-up-in-ie#post-433 Sun, 15 Jun 2008 22:01:59 +0000 dreamwords 433@http://forums.sharethis.com/ <p>A few days ago, my (Typepad-run) blogs have been hanging up in IE, for me and for the readers who emailed me about it. They work fine in Firefox.</p> <p>Typepad support said this was a ShareThis problem (I'd recently added it to those blogs), and that they'd contacted you to fix it. They suggested an uninstall/reinstall.</p> <p>I did that today, but again, both blogs "hung up" (about 50% -75% loaded, then I'm unable to scroll down or up and IE becomes completely locked and has to be shut down).</p> <p>I have uninstalled ShareThis and now both blogs are working great, uploading quickly again. </p> <p>I'd really like to use your service, though, so if you fix this problem -- for GOOD -- I'd love to reinstall ShareThis on my Typepad blogs. Not until then, though, as you cost me a good many readers' pageviews over the past few days. </p>
