Bonjour,

Je développe une application intranet qui "tourne" maintenant depuis
plusieurs années auprès de 2500 personnes environ, mais depuis 1 mois,
une personne à un problème sur une page particulière. L'erreur
javascript se produisant est "Cette classe ne gère pas Automation".
L'erreur semble se produire lors de l'utilisation de l'objet opener.
Que cache ce message d'erreur ? Pourquoi se produit-il sur ce poste là
seulement ?
Pour info, ce poste est sous WinNT 4.00.1381
La version d'IE est 6.0.2800.1106
Il y a quantité d'autres utilisateurs dans cette config là.
Des pistes ? Merci d'avance pour votre aide...

Hello,

I'm working on an intranet application that has been up for many years
with 2500 users. Since last month, 1 user has a problem on a particular
page. The javascript error is "Class does not support Automation". This
error seems to happen when using the opener object. What's hidden behind
this error message ? Why is this machine the only one affected ?
For information, this machine is running WinNT 4.00.1381
Internet Explorer version is 6.0.2800.1106
We have many machines with this configuration.. .
Clues ? Thanks in advance for your help...

Here is one old thread where someone had the same error message and a
change of code helped remedy that:

If that doesn't help then you need to show us your code to enable us to

Hey guys,

Thank you for the solution. I was going to reinstall windows within an
hour. As a last resort I went to google... and found this thread.
Reregistering those libs fixed that stupid opener error.

The only browser I have encountered that supports <colgroup><col class="behold"></colgroup> to apply a CSS style to a whole column, is Microsoft Internet Explorer. I have been told it SHOULD NOT do so, since this is not part of the specification. How then to you apply styles to entire columns? Surely you don't have to write <td class="behold"on every row item.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
