Shutting Debug function off

Hello All:

Every time I browse a Web page that has scripting errors in it, Visual C++ asks me if I want to debug it. How can I turn this off or otherwise stop this from happening?

Thanks!

That's a good question and i'm very interested in an answer to that...
Those message-boxes are generated by ASSERTS that are present in the source code of the DLL's used by Internet Explorer (i don't know about Netscape) but usually those ASSERT stataments have effect ONLY in DEBUG versions of the libraries. This is valid for MFC, though.
I'm not sure about the ASP pages which seem to generate these errors.

Since the document can be displayed without those missing objects i find it stupid that the rendering of the page is halted on that error, especially if the HTML is specifically designed to be displayed only in part, if the whole document couldn't be loaded.

I finally figured it out:

In IE there is an option to debug errors on Web pages. Apparently when I recently installed a demo of Microsoft's FarcePage 2002, it must have taken the liberty to un-check the "disable script debugging" option for me. What would we do without Big Brother Bill's help?????
