Cannot see Javascript debugging alerts

[Sherlyn Koo]

IE doesn't seem to want to tell me when it encounters a Javascript error.

1. Javascript is working
2. "Disable script debugging" is OFF
3. "Display a notification about every script error" is ON

If I run Javascript with no syntax or other errors, it executes fine. However
if I run a script that has an error in it, IE doesn't display the debugging
popup window. For example, if I introduce a JS error into a function which is
supposed to stop a form from submitting due to invalid content, no debug
notification is displayed and the form is submitted anyway. (This makes it
kind of hard to test my code!)

I'm running IE version 6.1.28 (Windows XP SP1).

Has anybody seen this before?

TIA...

I thought I'd just post a followup to this, in case it helps anyone else...

It turns out it was Norton Internet Security 2003 suppressing the Javascript
alerts, not the browser itself. I disabled NIS and the alerts are appearing
again.
