Thanks Daave & I have subsequently did that & it is checked Enabled & has
been, so that's why I am curious(& frustrated) about it as I had not been in there to change anything. I am still awaiting to hear back from the credit union IT people. thanks again -- Dallas.....

Instead, drill down this way: Tools | Internet Options | Security | Custom Level | Scripting | Active Scripting Which choice is selected? Enable, Disable, or Prompt? Also, you should clear your browser cache and close IE7 and open it again.

Thanks Twayne & please, no "sorry's" as you all have been of great help to
me. But I checked into that other option below & still no dice. thanks again Twayne -- Dallas.....

Dallas wrote: thanks again twayne, but I have done that, it was already checked as enabled, but still i cant get into the credit union site. now what about this: above the scripting option, in custom level, under Misc. are these 2 things, both of which are checked as disabled: Allow scripting of IE browser control & Allow script initiated windows without size or position constraints thanks & i have an email to the credit union to have them take a look I've never noticed those and thus haven't even looked at them, so no help there. It sounds like a possibility though and worth trying. If it's not a fix, set them back until you can learn more about them. Watch out that you aren't enabling something for untrusted sites or anything like that. On a quick scan, all I find similar to what you mentioned is for untrusted sites, NOT something you want to allow scripts on if you don't have to. It's a long shot but have you previously done what this page talks about? http://www.fiveanddime.net/secure-internet-explorer-6/ That could be one of the problems; dropmyrights.msi.

thanks Richard, but am using ie7; is there this option to check compatibility within 7 ? i went to tools options but didn't see it Compatibility View mode in IE8 has it render the web page in "quirks mode" which means it uses the rendering engine of IE7. Since you are using IE7, you are already using IE8's Compatibility View mode. |

yes, thank you Vanguard LH & I did that & it was already checked as Enabled. I did look under Restricted Sites, for whatever reason & there it is checked as disabled. but again, i have been trying to balance my account & have been to this site many times this past week or so & never a problem. If your bank site is getting rendered under the Restricted Sites security zone then its domain was added to that security zone. That also means that few features of HTML are allowed in rendering the web page. The whole point of the Restricted Sites security zone is to neuter a web page to eliminate advanced features, which includes scripting. You don't want a site listed in the Restricted Sites security zone unless you are specifically attempting to neuter that site which removes a lot of functionality from web pages. When you visit the bank site, what security zone is shown in the status bar of IE? |

No error message about Javascript. I clicked on the Login button. Got an error because I didn't enter any login credentials. I just wanted to check if their Javascript worked on that page. It did. So it must be the next web page that reports a Javascript problem; however, I don't have an account there so I cannot login to get to the next web page. You could try adding their domain to the Trusted Sites security zone. If that doesn't work, you'll have to contact them to report that IE8 cannot use their web site. They may be incorrectly detecting the web browser connecting to them and screwing up on that detection. For example, they may look for a range of UA (user agent) strings that web browsers report to identify themselves but the UA string for IE8 is not in their list. |
