Google Syndication often has JavaScript errors in it. I've seen it on many occasions, and it's not your fault but the .js that google serves from their ad scripts. It seems it only happens with certain advertisers (on my site it tend to be the 'generic' ads or the EBay ads that often get thrown in when the content network can't find a good match)...

>I have something weird that I cannot resolve. I have observed that tonight. In my .NET Web site, I am including a reference to a Google syndication javascript file to include some content on the site. If I include the .js file in the HTML content that I am generating to my .aspx page, I am having this error:

If I remove the s at the end in the .js extension, I will not have any error. I really cannot find what is causing that. This is a very weird situation that I have never seen before.
