IE6 display problem. Urgent help needed.

P

Paul Woodsford

Running XPHome SP2 fully updated.

I have a webpage which has 2 links on it to call up two index pages, one
formatted for IE and a second for Netscape.
However on my PC all I see is a graphic placeholder and the link doesn't
work.
I am sure it is a security setting in IE6 but I am rapidly losing my hair
trying to find it.
Can anyone assist.
The section involved is marked by ***************************************
Any help much appreciated.
This page displays perfectly on my XP PC in work.

Try lowering your security settings to allow running scripts. I suspect that
the page is using scripting to fire up the hyperlink instead of a straight
hyperlink ( you should see something like 'javascript: Open('url.com') in
the status bar instead of 'http://www.url.com')

Double click on the Internet Zone Icon on your status bar to display the
Internet Zone Security tab, OR select the Tools/Internet Options menu and
select the Security tab.

For the Internet Zone select a MEDIUM level (the default). This is enough to
enable scripting in the Zone.

On the Advanced tab you will find an option to 'Use image placeholders' ,
uncheck this to display the images instead of the placeholders (the box with
an 'x').

I trust this gets you up and going.

Thanks for all your help.
The "Page" wasn't mine. I'm a rooky at webpage designing etc:, but I just
couldn't get it to display at home whereas I could at work.
Problem sorted now and it was to do with IE6 security settings.
