done but with errors on the page

[David]

Dialog box says: One or more Active X controls could not be displayed because
either:
1) Your current security settings prohibit running Active X controls on this
page, or
2) youhave blocked a publisher of one of the contrils.

As a result, the page may not sidplay correctly
==================================
How do you troubleshoot this? Not confined to 'a' single web site

I checked all certificates and publishers plus removed outdated ones;
lightened my security via MS; took Zone Alarm out of the picture; deleted
Temp, Temp cache, cookies, whatever I could find; thinned out the add ons and
updated; downloaded and installed Jave 6.03; downloaded and installed IE 7
plus 'the shining' or you might say Silverlight.

I am dizzy - downloaded Firefox - not much better than IE - the real pain is
that after deciding to continue IE 6 the problem went away, well until I
rebooted, that is about as near reality as I can get - Oh ya, removed all add
ons and the problem remained, page loads slowly and with problem (Java I
wondered so downloaded 6.03) Pages without this ailment are fast loading and
functional---

Appreciate feedback and ideas, thanks....David

Well ... how is the page not displaying correctly? IS it displaying
correctly? DO you have Active X blocked?

It says to enable ActiveX if you're having problems; did you do that?
What ARE the problems?

 

[David]

Let me answer your questions Twayne:

Q) Well ... how is the page not displaying correctly? IS it displaying
correctly? DO you have Active X blocked?
A) page takes way too long to load;
loads with error indicated in bottom LH corner as per original message
logged
here;
not displaying properly by virtue of previous remarks;
have tried several different settings with Internet Options and Active X
- tried reducing safety levels on security/cookies etc in IE
- tried 'no add ons' as well as enabling all add ons and disabling
un-needed add
ons

Q) It says to enable ActiveX if you're having problems; did you do that?
What ARE the problems?
A) Active X was enabled from the very beginning when trouble presented.
Problem? Very slow loading plus the error message as noted.
//////////////////////////////

Now when you dble click on the error message it says'
line 619
char 3
error object expected
code 0
url http://www....

it is this error I am asking how to troubleshoot?

Now while I am here let me ask you this: when you go to
IE>Tools>Options>General>Browsing History>Settings>Objects> pick whichever
one and click on it >dependency> you will see 'File Name' and 'Size'
Well in some of my objects there appears a file name * and the size says
damaged.....how do you repair this? Double clicking on either reveals zilch.
Below this window on some objects I find 'Package name' with an entry such as
'com.ms.xml.dso' ---- now what??

Ahh, that makes it easy; see inline:

Great! That's the important line. It is *nothing* to do with anything
on your end, I'm pretty much certain. That message indicates that there
is a problem on the WEB PAGE that you are viewing: The web page author
screwed up his code, IE caught it, and is telling you about it.
It's also not unusual to encounter such a message; many, many sites
have such problems, usually but not always attributable to the author's
lack of expertise in writing good code. Or, sometimes it's simply an
incompatability between versions of jscript or the java being used. And
a few others, none of which indicate problems on your own system.
Being slow to load can indeed be one of the results of the bad code
on many web sites, just as also it could be traffic, server load and
many other things.

Usually the best thing to do is to turn off the setting that reports
script errors in the Advance section of File Options.
IE: Tools; Internet Options; Advanced tab. Under Browsing, tick the
"Disable Script Debugging" and the next one for the same thing but wiht
(other) on the end, since you're not writing those scripts.
Then you should no longer be bothered by those messages. Again, slow
loading and that error message are not the fault of your system, but of
the web site's code that you are accessing. And it's not an unusual
situation to come across; many sites are similar.

I've given a pretty simplistic description, but I think it should
suffice. If you do the above and it still persists, come on back and
explain. Often just changing the indicated settings will improve the
time problem too.

Hi Twayne,

you're gonna love this...both those items are checked under advanced. Is
there somewhere that displays what "normally" is checked and unchecked in the
Advanced category?

Also with Java, is it correct to have Sun Java enabled and MS Jit compiler
enabled?

Plus all those files named asterik labelled damaged in the add ons list,
what is that all about and does it matter??

Cheers, David

Another clue might be that sometimes this particular web page loads very
quickly which is in agreement with your comments. I believe that happened
when I dwnlded and set up Mozilla for the first run anyway.

When I asked to get on this current site I did reduce my security to allow
the 'sign in' button to appear, of course this after spending 10 minutes
trying to find it)
Anyhow, obviously I found that small boo boo.
