Issue

You can't preview Adobe GoLive pages that contain active content or JavaScript in Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack (SP) 2.

Microsoft Internet Explorer returns the following message:

"Did you notice the Information Bar? The Information Bar alerts you when Internet Explorer blocks a pop-up window or file download that might not be safe. If a Web page does not display properly, look for the Information Bar (near the top of your browser)."

Solutions

Do one or more of the following solutions:

Solution 1: Enable Internet Explorer to preview active content.

1. Click Do Not Show This Message Again.
2. Click OK. The page appears without active content or JavaScript.
3. Click the Information Bar at the top of the page, and choose Allow Blocked Content.

Solution 2: Use the GoLive Live Renderer or Preview tab to preview the page.

Preview the page in the GoLive Live Renderer browser or click the Preview tab to test your pages in Internet Explorer. Both preview options use the same rendering engine used in Internet Explorer, but don't display the message about blocked content.

Solution 3: Permanently enable Internet Explorer to preview active content.

You can permanently enable Internet Explorer to view active content on local files. Doing so prevents the warning from appearing again. Completing this solution could allow malicious active content in files on your computer. Complete this solution only if you feel confident in your computer's security measures.

To enable Internet Explorer to preview active content, do the following:

1. Choose Tools > Internet Options in Internet Explorer.
2. Click the Advanced tab in the Internet Options dialog box, and then scroll down to the Security section.
3. Select Allow Active Content To Run In Files On My Computer.

Solution 4: Add a Mark of the Web comment to your web page.

Add the following Mark of the Web comment tag to your web pages. This tag identifies the page as having been saved from an online website.

The number in parentheses is the number of characters in the URL, which follows.

 <!-- saved from url=(0022)http://www.example.com/ --> 

Solution 5: Install the Mark of the Web fix.

You can download a free extension for GoLive that enables you to preview GoLive pages in Windows XP SP 2. For more information, see the Big Bang Software website at http://menumachine.com/docs/instruction_pages/troubleshooting/mark_of_the_web.html.

Additional Information

Active content includes JavaScript and VBScript code as well as ActiveX controls. Windows XP SP 2 has security settings that don't allow active content to run on any page that resides on your local computer. These pages include pages in sites that you edit in GoLive. This security restriction prevents you from previewing any pages that rely on JavaScript, which means that pages containing rollovers and GoLive Actions are affected. The security settings only affect pages that are saved on your computer. It doesn't affect viewing of any page which is uploaded to an Internet server.
