Shawn and Paul, I can confirm that. For some bizarre reason, this page does not provoke the Internet Explorer InfoBar.
Usually, a page with only the following contents: <html> <head> <script> </script> </head> </html> brings up the InfoBar on account of the script tag. I did notice, however, that Shawn's ggd-discover page is shown as part of the Internet zone - that must be because it's saved from the web. However, it contains no mark of the web, as is the standard way of showing where pages were saved from to give them the same permissions as they originally had. I'm confused. <15 minutes later> I've had a revelation. This is not for non-techies, but some of you might find it interesting. IE uses an alternate NTFS stream to write zone information to the file, so it's not visible to the user, but apps can read and process it. It's kind of a high-tech, and less obvious, Mark of the web. I've done some testing here, and it's not really consistent - I made two pages with content similar to what I posted above, and linked to one from the other. Having allowed blocked content in the one, I expected the other page to ask me again, but it didn't. I have an theory as to what's going on, but I'm not going to go into any detail (unless anybody wants me to), but suffice to say that: a) I cannot find a definitive source that says Allow Blocked Content is only effective for the current page b) My experiments show the opposite Hope that helps, Kim > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul > Sent: den 3 december 2004 20:09 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [DQSD-Users] DQSD 3.1.9 BETA-1 > > Thanks again Shawn. > > When I click the "download this script" link at the bottom of > the page, I get a permission-denied failure--but not the kind > that gives you an allow-blocked-content option. > > -- > Paul > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:dqsd-users- > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Shawn K.
