Getting Line:1 Erro: Invalid character error in IE 7.0

I always get the mentioned error for most of the web pages in IE 7 and I
didn't get see this error while browsing in IE 6.0 or Firefox.

For e.g. link I am trying to open is :
http://www.javaworld.com/javaforums/...38&an=0&page=0
and everytime this javascript error pops up. As far as IE settings are
concerned I have enabled script debugging and MS script debugger version 1.0.
7295 is installed on my system. OS is Win XP prof SP2.

Any help to turn this error off is appreciated.

Thanks...

Go to Tools | Internet Options | Advanced.
Check the box to Disable script debugging.
Uncheck the box to Display a notification about every script error.

1. You might want to refresh your scripting engine:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ist/webdev.asp
Windows Script 5.6 for Windows 2000 and XP
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

2. Sometimes there's a corrupt file in the cache and one must go to Tools |
Internet Options and click Delete Files.

2a. Start | Run | Regsvr32 vbscript.dll

2b. Start | Run | Regsvr32 jscript.dll

3. Re-register all DLLs listed in http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=281679

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=822521

5a. IE Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>Browsing>Enable third-party browser
extensions (uncheck & reboot).

5b. Find the hijacker that caused 5a to be checked (or if none were checked,
check for hijackware anyway):

Re: Getting Line:1 Erro: Invalid character error in IE 7.0

Hi Sachin,

I didn't get any error messages with 'show all scripting errors' turned on.

Check your firewall(any productivity control options?) or Hosts file
entries. The page is full of external links (to adverts and external scripts
etc) that may be being blocked on your 'puter.

Regards.

Re: Getting Line:1 Erro: Invalid character error in IE 7.0

Invalid character means in MS terminology "file doesn't exist". This may happen, if you specified wrong file path or if IE is unable
to open a file due to security restrictions built into the browser. The security is tighter in IE7, that's why you get more errors
in the new version
