Javascript links not working
 

I have Windows XP home edition, and Internet Explorer 6. This happened before but I did something to fix it, and I don't remember what. What happens is whenever I click on a javascript link, it doesn't do anything, or just sits there and has the loading cursor forever. Any ideas? I tried the other thread about links not opening, but that didn't seem to help.

Make sure you have Enable active scripting turned on
tools /internet options/security/custome level

Thank you so much, I didn't realize it was that easy.

Hi.

I have exactly the same problem, but active scripting is already enabled.

Are there any other solutions I could try?

Many thanks

Matt

Me too. http links work but not javascript commands/links. I don't understand

Re: Javascript links not working
 

Do you guys have any software like spybot, pop-up stopper, etc installed? Certain programs that you might have installed could have disabled the hyperlink functionality. Try pressing down the SHIFT or the CTRL key as you click on the links see if it helps, also do you all have the MS Java Virtual Machine installed? If these are not helping provide more info about the problem please.

Disable pop-up blocker...obviously seems like spyware is a common issue in here so that could be it. There's a particular one that shows up as something like "Web Tools for IE" or "search bar" that totally jacks JS - you'll forgive me but I don't remember right off hand. Another thing you can try is to install the latest Windows Scripting host from MS...the install includes a new jscript.dll so I've had luck fixing a few with that. I just go to google and type in "download Windows Scripting host" and follow the link from MSDN. You can try this link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

I doubt this is the problem...usually it's the spyware or pop-up blocker, but just in case.

This new jscript.dll didn't help.
What's the next step ?

yea, pop up blockers sometimes screw up things
