JavaScript errors when using Internet Explorer

For example, you receive the error, "CQ is undefined on /libs/wcm/content/siteadmin.html," or "Invalid character."

By default, CQ5 compresses js and CSS files for better performance.

To disable gzip compressing of js and CSS, do the following:

1. Open http://{host:port}/system/console/configMgr.
2. Select CQ HTML Library Manager from the list.
3. Deselect the Gzip checkbox.
4. Save.
5. Open http://{host:port}/crxde.
6. Log in as admin.
7. Browse to /var/clientlibs and delete all subnodes.
8. Click "Save All."

Another option is to use Firefox.

Internet Explorer 6 and 7 have known issues related to decompressing gzipped data:

For debugging the javascript errors further with Internet Explorer, you could use Visual Web Developer [1] or the IE Developer Toolbar [2].
