Unwanted I.E. Information Bar Message
Hi All,
Just registered on forum. Wonder if anyone can help me with a persisting issue when using I.E.?
I am currently building a website (not live yet, hence no url) and have used Javascript within the code to ensure any new browser windows launched from links within the site content have a specified width and height.
However, when launching any of the source html files the following information bar displays below the address field:
To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this file from showing active content what could access your computer. Click here for options....
Options are:
- Allow blocked content......
- What's the risk?
- Information Bar Help
Can anyone advise me how I can retain Javascript within my code and lose the advised information bar?
I know there must be a way of doing it as I've visited a number of sites which include Javascript, yet display new browser windows without the issue I am experiencing.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Reference:
Typical Javascript used:
Within the <head> tags:
<SCRIPT language="javascript">
function createWindow(cUrl,cName,cFeatures) {
var xWin = window.open(cUrl,cName,cFeatures)
}
</SCRIPT>
Within the content (links):
<a href="javascript:createWindow('http://www.costamediterranea.com/touristguide/castellon/vinaros/','window2','width=800,height=500,status,location,scrollbars,resizable')">Vinaros</a>

Re: Unwanted I.E. Information Bar Message
I assume you're talking about Internet Explorer 7? If so, this is one of its "helpful" new features. I'm not sure it can be turned off, but one thing that might help is to turn off Pop-Up Blockers. Go into Tools / Internet Options, then select the Privacy tab. Un-check the box that says Turn on Pop-up Blocker. You could also add this site to your Trusted Sites (that's the Security tab of Internet Options).

Re: Unwanted I.E. Information Bar Message
Thank you both for offering such quick replies!
Coothead; your suggestion has rectified the problem! (I've added the code and amended the Microsoft settings as advised) Many thanks for the detailed help.
This issue has persisted for sometime. It is somewhat of a relief it has now been positively addressed.
Regards and many thanks,
Senninha
