What
is JavaScript?
JavaScript is a scripting
language which enables web authors to design interactive web sites.
Most of today's web pages require JavaScript in order to function
properly. If JavaScript is disabled in your web browser some web
pages will not function properly.
Here we will describe how to enable
JavaScript support in the most popular web browsers:
Scroll down to get to
the corresponding section.
Microsoft Internet
Explorer 5 / 6
In Internet Explorer
click on the 'Tools' menu (step 1) and select 'Internet Options'
(step 2) as
shown on the picture.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Click on the 'Security' tab (step 3)
and then click on the 'Custom Level...'
button (step 4).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scroll down until you can see options
as shown on the picture. They are located near the bottom of the
list. Set the option 'Active scripting' to 'Enable' (step 5). Then
click on the 'OK' button (step 6).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Click 'Yes' (step 7).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Click 'OK' (step 8). This concludes
enabling JavaScript for Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or 6.
If the problematic Web page (which
did not work without JavaScript) is still opened inside Internet
Explorer, simply press the 'F5' key on your keyboard to reload it.
Now it should work correctly.
Microsoft Internet
Explorer 7
In Internet Explorer 7 click on the
'Tools' button (step 1) located in the upper right part of the
screen (next to the gear icon) and select 'Internet Options' (step
2) as shown on the picture.

Click on the 'Security' tab (step 3)
and then click on the 'Custom Level...'
button (step 4).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
