Naughty WebResource.axd!!!

There is an issue, which some of us have experienced whit the javascript error when you hover Sharepoint menu. Which I guess is annoying but fine enough! However when things gets nasty is not being able to create anything such as groups, sub website, etc because of a postback issue.

Anyway there are a lot of stuff out there advising different steps such as unchecking the "Verify if file exist" at the .axd extension in IIS. But for some of us this is already unchecked. Then there is the web.config trick with the trick. But then for a lot of us it does not work. There are futher trick...but what happen if all of these DOES NOT work. well you stuck in the dark..crying perhaps:)

Think over doing the stuff programatically? Forget that! you do not to go that far!!!

Well let me give you a trick which might not resolve all you problem but at least keep you going.

The interesting think with asp.net page (which are what Sharepoint page are) is that they often use a Master.page. This master page is using the core.js file. So guess what! when going to edit that file.

So please go to this folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\1033

then open the core.js file with your favorite editor.

Then copy the following into the end of this file:

Thats it! you should be able to create group, website. It wont resolve every javascript error (SP Menu)
But it keeps you going.

Let me know, how it went!
