nickbrookfield Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Hi there, My newly built website is causing some issues in IE. The website isn't displaying in IE (HTTP 406 error) at all but is working completely fine in all other (good) browsers. The site is built in php and has some javascript running on each page: http://www.theweighingroom.co.uk Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/266448-internet-explorer-cannot-read-this-webpage-format-http-406/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian F. Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I don't have IE available at the moment, but I think you need to be looking at the server-side of this. Seeing as 406 is a HTTP error code, sent by the server.

Christian F. Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Not having seen it: It's possible. Though, it can be the server-side code as well, or even the browser itself. Without seeing the HTTP request and reply, plus having all of the relevant code at hand, it's quite impossible to say with any degree of certainty.
