This is very confusing.
I have a brand new site.. just did the Rocket Launcher Install of Media Mogul.
Everything looks just like the RT demo site in FF, but in IE, you get a blank white screen.
You can view here : www.owossospeedway.com/new/
I have done NOTHING except run/install the RT.. no mods, no coms, no plugs.. nothing. This is just the RT installer package alone.
BUT -- If I switch off the Media Mogul Theme and use one of the default themes.. then there is no problem in IE.
Obviously, this is a RT issue.. but what causes this ?
Any ideas ?

This is odd.. I just ran it in all 3 browsers (Chrome, FF & IE) and it came up looking just fine in each.
Clear your cache and reload maybe? - Joe (Moxx)

NOTE - The front page will normally load. But if you click any link, then it fails.
And then you can't back up.
And then you can't even retype the URL.. it will go blank screen every time.
I cleared the cache on my pc, cleared it on joomla server.
I even broke out my laptop and used my kids computer upstairs.. ie 6, ie 7 and ie 8.. and they all failed.
I'm pounding my head against the wall

Its not just you. I retested as you suggested and I came up with it too. Although, I am able to back up and redirect.
The page isn't entirely blank, if you check the source you come up with...
<script id="ie_ready" defer src="javascript:void(0)"></script>
Using that.. I found something that may help on the Joomla forums. This person also had the issue with Media Mogul.

Interesting to see that so many people have the problem..
I haven't found anyone with IE who doesn't have the problem.
Which leads me to the question.. is this a RT bug ?
Moxx, you said you got it to, but you could back up and redirect.. what do you mean, redirect ??
The link to joomla.org only seemed to support that no one could figure otut he problem ?

By redirect, I meant I was able to type a new address in my URL bar.
I agree that the Joomla post didn't give a clear indication of the reason, just a couple possibilities. Just wanted you to know you weren't the only person with this issue.
Will keep pondering. - Joe (Moxx)

when you say new address.. do you mean you could type an address on my server and have it work or did you mean any new URL ?
I was able to go back to front page sometimes.. but any link any deeper into the site would not work.
What is most troubling to me is that the page starts to load.. you can see it for a moment, then it goes away.

I can type in a URL after the blank page loads.
One idea perhaps.. Go through your modules and start turning them off one by one, is there something on the back pages thats causing this. Perhaps you can isolate it. - Joe (Moxx)

I found this..
forum.phpwcms.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=16556
Which seems to touch on it.
Here is the problem I have having.. when you get the white screen of death.. the source says
"<script id="ie_ready" defer src="javascript:void(0)"></script>"
Where is that coming from ? If you load the same page in FF, it completely downloads... if you look at the source for it, you won't see that line anywhere.
So where is that line coming from ?

- The problem is between flash news module and mootools (you can disable the flash news module to see).
