ADF core JavaScript crashing

Question

Hi colleagues.
I'm having an issue regarding to core ADF JavaScript in our WebCenter Portal (11.1.1.6.6). I think that this is the correct forum to ask it because is a ADF related issue.
Some of the errors are:
Message: Expected ')'
Line: 667
Char: 411
Code: 0
URI: http://host/webcenter/afr/partition/ie/n/default/opt/core-11.1.1.6.0-2178.js
Message: 'AdfUIComponents' is undefined
Line: 1
Char: 1
Code: 0
URI: http://host/webcenter/afr/partition/ie/n/default/opt/menu-11.1.1.6.0-2178.js
I was checking on the forum related issues that the people have but not find a correct solution for this problem. (ADF WebPage Error)
I checked IE browser settings according to Oracle recommendations. Also checked if the problem persists accesing from F5, OHS or directly to the server.
Anyone have a clue or tip of why can be ADF JavaScript crashing?. It will be related to the browser settings, security?. Someone had before the same problem and can share some information?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

I used to handle a lot of bugs like this on the ADF team. If you posted some code, I might be able to help. Just because it happens only on IE, doesn't mean that it is an IE bug. IE just does things differently, and there is a LOT of code in ADF to handle those differences. There are some things that you can do when developing a page that will still cause issues in IE. It seems that less than 1 out of 10 of the bugs like this that were submitted against ps7 were actual bugs in ADF.
