asptoday_discuss thread: Windows ME - User.EXE Error while using IE


Message #1 by "GaneshM" <ganeshm@s...> on Sat, 6 Apr 2002 10:03:03
Hi,

I would be greatful if someone could help me.

The Problem that i face is described as below ...

In Windows ME System using IE 5.5, when a new window is opened using the 
window.open() function i am getting an user.exe error. I am using a Client 
Side XML in the window, that calls the window.open function. Both are ASP 
Pages. I am not sure why this is happening ... the window that is opened 
displays some data (from the Database) and on selection of one of the data 
will call a javascript function in the parent window (window.opener. . )
and then closes itself (window.close). This page is working fine in 
Windows 2000 Profession and also in NT (Even with IE 5.0 SP2). I am 
getting this error only in the Windows ME and Windows 98 Systems. Please 
help me to resolve this problem...

Thanks in Advance
Ganesh.

I'm not sure if this could possibly be the problem, but there is a
documented issue with IE5.5 which results in a loss of session state when a
window opens a new window. The second window has no session state.

More info is on the MS Support site - don't have the article to hand - it
was fixed in IE5.5 SP1.
