I don't understand why you would get this error as it related to a javascript error not plain html problem. What version IE are you using?, what are you using to create this page?, what are you saving it as? are you sure you are accessing the correct page and not some other by mistake, have you cleared the IE browsers cache or history.

When you save a file in notepad, where you enter file name, below that you have 'Save as type', below that there is also a dropdown for Encoding: usually set by default as ANSI, saving as this Encode type can also cause problems, that is why you should save html pages with the UTF-8 option from the list.
