Javascript question

[Joy]

I received an e-mail with an attachment that requires I 'enable javascript
in my browser settings'. I don't know in which browser settings I would
find that.

I received an e-mail with an attachment that requires I 'enable javascript
in my browser settings'. I don't know in which browser settings I would
find that.

Whichever is your default browser, I suppose. On the other hand, since
it's an email, it may be talking about your email client. Browsers all
(I think) have Javascript enabled by default. *Many, many* sites use
Javascript, and lots of things wouldn't work right if it were turned
off. To test it, go to maps.google.com. If you can drag the maps
around, zoom in and out, etc, then your browser is executing
Javascript.

Many email clients don't honor Javascript by default, because that can
result in nasty things happening that you don't know about.

Thanks. I just tried that (google maps) and I can move the map, zoom, etc.

I had worded my question wrong, I guess. I know which browser I use
(Internet Explorer); I meant I didn't know where to find the settings in IE
that it was talking about.
