If your users have ad-blocking software in place and/or a cookie blocking policy, you'll just have to bear with it. You can't make someone accept cookies, unless you deny them access to your content with their accepting cookies set as a pre-condition.
That will just make you fewer friends online. Some users tend to take their online privacy very very seriously.

sparx please see this is my blog address http://umashankar.org/ and please tell me what is the problem.Posted 1 year ago # -
@umashankar: Your blog is first of all NOT standards compliant. Your header lists the page's DOCTYPE as XHTML 1.0 /Strict. IF you followed the standard as it is meant to be implemented, you'll have to not only rename each page as .xhtml but you'll also have to serve it as content-type = application/xhtml+xml.
If all this sounds a bit too complex, then bear with me. For optimum cross-browser fidelity of display, try to be as standards-compliant as possible.
Take a look at the W3C validator (although, it isn't 100% accurate in some cases too).
In your case, in IE, I got scripting errors and as best that I could figure out it has something to do with the Google FriendConnect box on the right side. Try removing/disabling each module and see what effect it has.
Start with the cleanest possible template and see how it renders. A word of caution - many script based boxes like Ads / messenger boxes etc. which ask that you embed code, tend to have code that is nowhere near standards-compliant. It'll be up to you to edit the code or just choose to ignore the validation errors.
As suggested here, use an editor that posts good and correct HTML.
I suggest you stick with HTML or xHTML Transitional as a doctype.

Thank you very much:sparx.
I validated using w3c validator I found around 200 errors and 170 warnings.I use "windows Live writer" for writing my posts,I think it generates correct html only.Correcting those many errors by seeing the template is hell for me,can't I do anything with out changing my template.Please give me your suggestion,DEPENDING ON YOUR SUGGESTION I'LL DO CHANGES.please reply for the last time.
thank you.Posted 1 year ago # -
start a fresh blog with the same theme template and one or two test posts. No plugins. No enhancements. plain vanilla!
Run it thru the validator to see whether the theme itself passes. If not, either think of switching to a compliant theme or contact the theme developer.
Enable only one plugin at a time and see the results - is that resulting in an OK display or is something broken? Basically, eliminate possibilities and narrow in on the code that causes the site to NOT appear as it should.
