How to reset local file access back to "web"

[MALeonard]

I have written a (client side) javascript using:
objHttpReq = new ActiveXObject('Msxml2.XMLHTTP');

Then do the OPEN/GET/SEND/etc on a local file.
Everything works fine, except...

Now all the regular HTTP links on the page-
<a href="......">xxxx</>

Auto add "file:///...path..." to the front of the HREF
when hover over/click on.

How to cancel/reset back from "local" to "web" mode?

Am doing...
objHttpReq.close;
objHttpReq = false;
...no help

Figured it out...
Nothing to do with the ActiveXobject.

Had to do with the way I was populating my cell...
was adding single-quotes(') around the href parms,

and the builtin method(?) was then also adding dbl-quotes(") around them.

====
var oCell;
var newRow = document.getElementById('symbtbl').insertRow(-1); // add at end

oCell = newRow.insertCell(0);

// javascript uses sngl-quotes for text, and dbl within causes problems...
//bad...
// Apostrophe = & # 39; (note- had to imbed spaces to prevent this board from converting on display)
oCell.innerHTML = '<a href=& # 39;

http://web.site.url&

# 39; target=& # 39;_blank& # 39;>Text</a>'
so the cell contained:
<a href="'

http://web.site.url'";

target="'_blank'">Text</a>
Which caused the browser to treat the link as a local file, instead of an URL.

//good...
oCell.innerHTML = '<a href=

http://web.site.url

target=_blank>Text</a>'
so the cell contains:
<a href="

http://web.site.url";

target="_blank">Text</a>
And now the browser treats correctly - an URL

Note- if populate including the dbl-quotes (& # 34 or & q uot )
the method still adds additional dbls around the parms,
but the browser appears to treat OK.
