My script works in IE 6 on XP............. but fails to work on IE 7 on XP and vista
It always works in Firefox.

A bar shows up and asks if i want to temporarily allow the script, but nothing happens when i agree to allow the script.

You need to enable JavaScript to run off your local drive. It is done for security reasons.

Yes that fixes things for me, but i know a thing or two about computers so it no big deal for me. But the average Joe doesn't want all the hassle of resetting things. It's not practical to ask everyone who come to my site to do this...or is it?

Would you suggest i leave JavaScript out of my web page entirely to avoid this hassle.

Is your average Joe going to run your code off of the C drive? No, they run it off a web server which the browser is set up to handle JavaScript.

My web site is hosted on GoDaddy right now.......Do you imply that there is some setting i need to tinker with on GoDaddy.

You said, " No, they run it off a web server which the browser is set up to handle JavaScript". Please could you tell me more about what you meant?

You are getting that warning when you visit your site via http?

Are you using ActiveX or something like that?

I am just curious. Are you going to implement login using javascript? In this implementation user can see the source of page and see what user name and password should be enter.

lol

no i won't be using java script for login implementation.

thank you for the warning....

this was just a ........friendly wager between friends ..........JavaScript vs anti-JavaScript

Because of this issue only one of five friends could view the web site i put up.

I think JavaScript is cool so i was hoping to find a simple solution.

No reason why the script should not work....Script looks perfectly clean to me

Can you give the link of the page that you hit when you get that Java Script warning? Maybe having a look at it would help!
