The Page ribbon does not load

[Blaired]

On several browsers I cannot view several items within sharepoint. But can view them with other browsers
When I open the main root site with one of the offending browser I get an error triangle at the bottom left of the browser (details below). on these browser I am unable to do basic functionality within the sharepoint site:


From what research I've already done it suggests I edit the web.config and add/edit the below


"Edit the web.config file associated with the SharePoint site:

Modify the following item in the config file, or add it if it is missing:

<scriptResourceHandler enableCompression="false" enableCaching="true" />

Inside this section:


<system.web.extensions>

<scripting>

I believe I'v found the web.config in \inetpub\

http://wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80.

But when I look for the above code I can't find the section I'm supposed to edit. Help!!!!
