Today I keep getting the grey box saying java script error, do you want to continue running scripts on this page.

First of all, am I meant to say yes or no to the question?

Secondly, what does it mean? Having problem posting on some sites and I never get to see all the smilies / icons on this site either.

Thanks

I just pop in now and then.... :)

    Could be that your Java Virtual Machine is corrupted. Try to download a new installation of Java from Sun HERE, or try the Microsoft version HERE.
    I haven't been asked to tell you that I'm the [highlight]Board Drunk[/highlight] for this board. As the night wears on, my posts will become worse, with simple spelling mistakes, inane ramblings, and a blatant disregard for the truth. I have no authority to do anything, so there's no point asking or telling me. If you see me past midnight, please tell me to get my coat and order me a taxi.

    It means the web page you're viewing has an error in its Javascript code which your browser is rejecting. Clicking Yes means the browser will try running any further scripts on the page, No means it won't bother. Either way the page won't have displayed properly.

    If using IE, go to Tools - Options - Advanced and untick 'Display a notification about every script error'.

    It's not that, downloaded and tried to run and said already installed.

    BUT seems to be working perfectly today, even got smilies on this site!

    Very odd........
