    Default DHTML Modal Window - IE6 Issue

    1) Script Title:
    DHTML Modal Window v1.1

    2) Script URL (on DD):
    http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...dhtmlmodal.htm

    3) Describe problem:
    I initially started a thread in the other forum, but I have confirmed this to be a problem with default set of files that come with the dhtmlmodal window downloads. For example: demo-modal.htm. Click on "Signup for our newsletter". (If you're in IE6).

    As can be seen here:
    http://qa.stellent.myipgportal.com/s...demo-modal.htm

    If I login to the remote server's desktop and use the IE6 there, this problem doesn't happen.

    I tested in IE7 and FireFox 2 and 3. No problems.

    I meticulously inserted debug alert()'s until I found the line of code that seems to be causing the trouble. It's in the dhtmlwindow.js file in the setopacity function.

    This line:
    if (targetobject.filters && targetobject.filters[0]){ //IE syntax

    Again, it doesn't have a problem if I use IE6 from the local machine's desktop itself.

    The page basically covers itself with the "veil" then stops with the error just before opening the modal window.

    Thank you.

    Default

    I just wanted to follow up from my previous post. This is NOT a bug. My problem was that I had behaviors disabled in the IE6 browser settings.

    Under Tools / Internet Options / Security tab / Internet Custom Level button / ActiveX controls and plug-ins / Binary and script behaviors.

    I had a basic installation of IE6 and never manually set this to disabled. So it must install as disabled by default.
