    My form started hanging up.  When I go to enter any data, I get the "...long-running script" error.  This is during a preview window.  Only happens in IE-11 but works in Firefox.  Cleared all the history, problem continues.

    Hello wolfpaw69,

    I did check your form and I am able to replicate the issue you are having. I did performance test of your form and it seems there are reasons which is causing this delay. Please check the analysis report here:  https://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.jotform.us/BWm67BSK 

    It seems you have several images in your form which is taking time to load. You also seems to have "Auto Fill" setting in your form enabled which is also adding to the load time. You have 97 fields and input data of all fields will be written to cookies.

    I would suggest you to disable the "Auto Fill" feature and also remove some images (or use some low resolution images). That should dramatically improve the performance of your form. 

    Do try it our and get back to us if the issue persists.

    Thank you!

    Interesting.  Its working now.  I didn't do anything to the form.  I have one real photo and 6 photos that are just a line.

    Hello wolfpaw69,

    I did check your form in IE and it does seems to take sometime to load but works fine in chrome and firefox.

    As suggested earlier, can you please disable the "Auto Fill" setting of your form and see if that solves your problem. 

    We will wait for your response.

    Thank you!
