Hi All,

I'm trying to download a file from a web page. I keep receiving a permission
denied, even though I changed the security settings to enable downloading of
files. What can the problem be?

I create this sample web page to illustrate the problem.

Thanks in advance,

<html>
<head>
<IE:Download ID="oDownload" STYLE="behavior:url(#default#download)" />

<script type="text/javascript">

// Load file to load.
var messageurl=http://<some file on server>


function displaydata(data)
{
// Display the downloaded file inside externalmessage
// externalmessage.innerHTML = data
}

function readymessage()
{
oDownload.startDownload(messageurl,displaydata)
}
</script>
</head>

<body onLoad="if (document.all&&window.print) readymessage()">
</body>
</html>

Is Windows Defender installed? Was it ever installed?

Hello,

I tried on two different systems and both exhibit the same problem, namely
permission denied, unfortunately.

To keep track of things, it helps immensely if you include all of previous
message(s) in your replies to the newsgroup. Thank you.
