Occasionally when I'm "surfing the 'net" with Mozilla 1.7.8 a very small window labeled "Alert" will pop up. It contains a message " This document contains no data" ???

Since this usually appears while a web page is loading, I have no idea what this means OR what it's trying to tell me. I normally just "click it away".

Is anybody else seeing this and/or know its meaning ???

Hi oldbob,

You may take a look at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Document_contains_no_data

Hope it will help,

This is just a page loading error box. Others you will see from time to time are 'adress not found' or 'timed out while trying to load'. If just getting it on random pages its probly just some ad on the page that failed to load.

If using Firefox and they're really annoying you, you can turn on full error pages, like IE, by going typing about:config in the adress bar and hitting enter, then finding browser.xul.error_pages.enabled and double clicking it setting it to true. This turns on standard error pages instead of error pop up boxes. I prefer it this way, but, keep in mind theres a reason they're not turned on by default, they're a bit buggy in all versions below Firefox 1.0.6. They are fully perfect and will be turned on by default tho in the forthcoming Firefox 1.5 (and already are in the Deep Park Aphla's/Beta's).

Thanks for responses.

Since this is "no big deal" I'm not going to put too much time/effort into it.

I did clear the "cache" and I'll see what happens.
