Please ID this JavaScript error message

[Albert Spencil]

This error shows when I check Netscape's "javascript:" . Doesn't seem
to present a problem as the site works OK. Still I would like to get
rid of it.

"Security Error: Content at
http://home.hiwaay.net/~ara36/butter...NBandV101.html
may not load data from about:blank."

Thanks!!

This message occurs when a frame tries to access properties of another
frame located in a different domain. This is the case here because you
have one frame in the domain hiwaay.net trying to access properties of a
blank frame (which is local, thus in another domain).

You have probably somewhere in your butterfliesNBandV101 file an attempt
to read or set a property of the blank frame. Without further code, it's
impossible to say what exactly you're doing.

Try testing this page in Mozilla, you might get a better error message
(with line number), though I cannot be 100% sure.

HTH,

Laurent

From your page:

function butterflies(x)
{
var newDoc=
open('','butterflyWindow','height=360,width=350,le ft=150,top=120,scrollbar
s=no');
newDoc.document.open();

When you use open("" without a filename, it opens a window that has a URL of
about:blank. That is technically from a different domain than your actual page
is, and NN4.xx throws it back at you as an error when you try to
open/write/close it because of the different domain issue.

Obviously you have not typed G there. Do it now, please.

Thanks to all. And, I have no idea what PointedEars is talking about.
If I am breaking a rule.... please explain.

Some useful tips:

1) Read the group FAQ http://www.jibbering.com/faq/

especially section 2_3 : http://www.jibbering.com/faq/#FAQ2_3

When posting, please quote what you are replying to.

2) As for TwipPointedEars, ignore the idiot. He seems to have this
self-annointed impression that he is the all knowing guru on Usenet but
hes a babbling idiot - ignore him.
