and placed it into my web pages.

I am getting a message from IE6 SP2 where the security has restricted the file from showing active content.  This is due to the Javascript used for creating the menus.

I like the way the menus are displayed and the code was easy for me to understand and modify. However, I want the website to meet the least amount of resistance such as no security warnings.  The site is a corporate site geared to senior financial professionals (simple but professional is key).

I have seen other drop down menus on sites on my machine without displaying this active content security message.

Are there ways for me to correct the code to avoid this issue or other similar code you would recommend?  I do not have Flash.

Thanks for your assistance,

Joe]]> 03/17/05, 076 35 2005 2005:%i:1111098917 17:35:17 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1847 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1848

If you are getting security warnings on your page, it must be something else that's causing it. I have to admit, I often see security warnings in IE6 even when there is no obvious reason.]]> 03/18/05, 077 52 2005 2005:%i:1111135932 03:52:12 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1848 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1849 03/18/05, 077 43 2005 2005:%i:1111156997 09:43:17 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1849 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1850 03/18/05, 077 13 2005 2005:%i:1111158796 10:13:16 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1850 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1851
Being a corporate site (with viewers being conservative financial types), we will have people who may not change their security settings.  

I just noticed when I went back to that site that I don't get that IE content blocking message.  I am going to recheck the code but if there is something that likely would cause this message, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks!]]> 03/18/05, 077 30 2005 2005:%i:1111159802 10:30:02 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1851 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1852 >> I don't remember having to explicitly turn on JavaScript but then I didn't do a new install recently.

I think it's a new feature. I noticed it for the first time yesterday when I used IE to preview a site I was working on. I think I just clicked on the message to enable the script.]]> 03/18/05, 077 00 2005 2005:%i:1111161655 11:00:55 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/layout/avoid_ie_restricted_content_for_simple_menu/#p1852
