For some reason any java scripts that refers
to 'external' fails:
example:
external.menuA rguments.docume nt.body.style.z oom="100%";
error message:
'external.menu Arguments' is null or not an object
code=0
This behaviour started recently after some fix from
microsoft was installed.
Anyone have any ideas?
The IE proprietary global external object has methods such as;
addDesktopCompo nent, addFavorite, importExportFav orites and
queryInterface. It does not contain frame objects, documents etc.
My guess is that you have given a frame the name or ID 'external' and
that has been working by overwriting the built in IE external object but
Microsoft have recently done something like making the global 'external'
property read only. Your only option is to re-name/ID the frame, but it
is generally better to never use the same character sequence for an ID
or name as is already in use as a browser DOM property name.
