Pop-ups suppression and frames delete

Pop-ups suppression and frames delete

#1
i have a small app and it seems that even while developing and testing any
script in the pages does not execute, but rather IE throws up a pop-up msg 
warning
and i need to respond to these dialogs before i can have the script parts 
execute.
 
i dont see this type of problem in general while using the internet. is 
there any
way, or how do most sites prevent this annoying problem?
 
#2
i have a link on a page displayed in one of the  frames and cannot find a 
way using VBscript to  show the new page completely on it's own, without it 
being placed
back into the frame where the link was originally requested from. How do i 
clear
the entire frameset page and display the new page?? It's done on nearly every
site on the web, but yet i do not see it in any html or script tutorials.
 
help would be very appriciated. thank you
  
 
thank you

Internet Options -> Advanced tab -> Security

Enable the option: "Allow active content to run in files on My Computer"

> thank you michael. but regarding the first question, why is it as i'm developing
IE blocks and warns of any scripts in the html, etc., but for example when i
read and post msg's here no such blocks appear and i'm sure this site 
contains many
scripts and other active content. you are not suggesting with your first 
answer that
the server sets the clients internet options settings, or are you?  

thanks again

If you are developing *.htm and opening the files directly in IE from the 
file system, that's the local 'My Computer' security zone.  Deploying and 
accessing via http from a web server is the Intranet (within your local 
network) or Internet (outside your local network) security zone.

The browser applies different client security based on the security zone.

entirely on the local computer, without even being connected to the 
internet, that it's not smart enough to suppress this warning altogether 
since generally it's built in intelligence is impressive. 
It still requires that active content switch be turned on before suppressing 
the msg.
I hope i have interpreted your advice correctly. thanks!

For all IE knows, you saved the page locally from a malicios web site for 
offline viewing and then disconnected from the web.
