I have a Javascript bookmarklet that people want to add to their bookmarks.
In Win 2k and below, addToFavorites( ) works fine. In Windows XP it
generates a permission error and does nothing except show the "javascript
error" icon in the lower left hand corner of Internet Explorer.
My questions:
- Is there a way to do this that works with Windows XP?
- If it's a security level thing, is there a way for the Windows XP user to
"whitelist" my site?
- Is there a way to get this to work, that does not involve the user
lowering their security level, which I won't ask them to do?
If there is no reasonable way to get this done, what's the most convenient
way I can instruct the user to do, to add my bookmarklet to their IE
Favorites list?
Thanks.

I meant:
window.external .AddFavorite()
not
addToFavorites( )
Thanks.

Works just fine on XP SP1
This method doesn't work for HTA's.
Otherwize the problem must be somewhere else.

Double-click that icon and see what the error message says.

Probably not for that use.

Yes.

"To bookmark this page, right click and choose 'Add to Favorites'"
somewhere on the page. Along with possible other directions for other
browsers.

Hi all,
I'm working with the XMLHttpRequest object. I receive the following
error message: "Permission denied to call method XMLHttpRequest.open"
This occurs in Firefox only. IE works fine.
From my research so far, it seems like this is a security issue related
to the fact that I am trying to access a url on a second server. Both
servers are under my control, however. Is there a way to get around this

Well, as the subject says....
Briefly, when I try to run *any* wizard, I get a simple dialog, stating
"Permission Denied", to which I can only click "OK".
I suspect this is a windows (XP) problem rather than an actual Access
one, as the error only occurs in my power user (and any other) account.
It goes away if I am logged on (to windows) as Administrator.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

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,...
