Hi,
Internet Explorer's ability to render Javascript comes from Windows Script.
More on that later...
For your type of Javascript problem, some possibilities:
Go to Internet Options> Security> Internet Zone, set it to Default.
Or, try the Internet Options> Security settings at
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/restricted.htm#Setting
Clear the IE cache. IE> Tools> Internet Options> General> Delete
files (and delete offline content when that dialog pops up) It's often
recommended that the TIF folder be kept at about 50 MB (Settings.)
From Internet Options> General> Temporary Internet Files> Settings> View
Objects, choose "Details" view and remove any objects marked as damaged.
Important...
Check any third-party security programs to see if one of them is blocking
scripts, scripting, active content. Norton Internet Security and a number of
other programs can be configured to block scripts.
Try these two commands from Start> Run> cmd [enter]
regsvr32 vbscript.dll [enter]
regsvr32 jscript.dll [enter]
Reinstall the scripting engine. Go to
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/webdev.asp
for the appropriate download of Windows Script 5.6
Re-registering the DLLs listed in this article may help:
