I am having an issue where all link button controls on my page do not work once we deploy our website to our production server. Here are a few details:

  1. We have 3 environments upon which we develop: Our local Machine, which uses local IIS7 to run for development; test environment which is an actual webserver behind our firewall(IIS6); Production which is our live webserver(IIS6). The website works fine on local machines and test server but once we click a link button on production server it hangs.

  2. The problem does not exist in Chrome, or FireFox it only exists in IE9. It does not exist when you put IE9 in compatibility mode.

  3. If I use the IE9 Developer tool bar and watch the scripts, as soon as you click one of the link buttons the console shows this error:

SCRIPT28: Out of stack space , line 340 character 9

  1. I am using quite a bit of JQuery and am wondering if this is causing an issue: However, I see no javascript errors.

Any thoughts? Thanks for any suggestions.

As people said in comments: it means that infinite recursion takes place. Whether it is simple recursion or some devious path across code like a serpent biting its tail - unknown, it seems IE gives out no stacktrace, or does?
