Javascript with WindowsXP SP2 on eBay

I am using WinXP with SP2.

I am testing some Javascript to use on eBay which uses OnClick on a thumbnail to display a full size picture, I keep having to allow "Allow Blocked Content.." to enable it to display.

If I use this on eBay and someone doesn't allow blocked contents in IE6 will the pictures display?

A more general question will Javascript run on eBay with a someone using WinXP SP2 security set to maximum?

    This is probably on the wrong board! Mods?

    If SP2 is set to block active content then it may or may not block your Javascript stuff. There are options to block active content from the internet and locally, for example my PC will allow active content to run when on the internet but it will block active content if say I open a page stored on my hard drive.

    If SP2 settings are set to maximum (I assume you mean with Internet Explorer) then I'm fairly certain that Javascript will not run at all. But then most users won't know how to do this anyway. They would also have a horrendous time on the web and a lot of blank pages.
