Hello,

I'm doing a script that is meant to be launched only locally on my computer.
This script is launched by a web page i have on my c: drive. When i launch
this script, i have a warning from IE "An ActiveX control might be unsafe to
interact with other parts of the page. Do you want to allow this
interaction?". I think this warning comes beacuse i'm reading files using
OpenTextFile on my hard drive. How could i disable this alert for this
script (and only for this script). I thinks it's in security settings of IE
but i couldn't find it.
Thanks,
Francois.

When using .hta, my browser asks whether i want to open or save the file.
When opening it, it opens a new window. It's not what I want here.
And in the settings, I set everything in the Local/Intranet section of
security settings to Enable but it stills prompt me for this.
Maybe I could add my html page in the trusted sites, but I can't get IE to
accept the syntax where I use a complete filename such as
file://C:MyPath/myfile.html.
Francois.

> You might want to consider saving your file as a .hta instead of .html. A
.hta file is a trusted html application that is designed to work around the
limitations set into place by the security settings in internet explorer.
If you must keep it as html look at your security settings for local
intranet and ActiveX controls/scripts. Be very careful with those because
it is opening up the system.

Considering that, I don't know if you are going to find a way around it. If no one else responds you may want to repost later with the additional info in your last response
