    runtime error questions



    Hi, I am using this browser that came with an sbcglobal account and when
    I click on the built in "shopping" button (and others), sometimes i get
    a jscript runtime error. It happens often but not always. It is very
    annoying. When I launch the debugger I don't know what i am looking at.

    My question is. Is there anything I can do to stop this from popping
    up? Or is this caused by the source from the site?

    Is Javascript build in to the browser or is there someway i could update
    it. Would that help?

    Would using a different browser help? I think this is sbcglobals own
    browser but it might be based on IE.


    thx
    Sheryl

    There should be something in the browsers options to shut of javascript
    error messages. In IE it is under Tools/Internet Options/Advanced : Disable
    Script Debugging and Display a notification about every script error. Both
    should be unchecked.

    You might want to write to the webmaster and ask him to fix his code too!

      Your best resource for help with it would be sbcGlobal's website or
      phone support. If clicking on a built in button is causing errors, then
      its a browser problem. And from what I could find in research, it is
      sbcglobals own creation (may be based on IE, but its SBC's own browser).
      AOL uses IE as a shell, but the browser acts differently with some
      things from IE behavior.

        Two things:

        1) Are you positive thats where its at in IE? Beware of loaded questions.

        2) What exactly does the location/directions to disable js in IE have to
        do with disabling it in a different browser?

        You should re-read the OP's post, and pay attention to whats happening.
        The error happens when a *browser button* is clicked. Pay close
        attention to the part of the post that I didn't snip.

        Read the group FAQ with regards to quoting/snipping.

          He's not telling you to disable javascript. He's telling you to turn off
          javascript error messages. I get those messages semi-frequently too
          because I have error messages turned on.
