this object doesn't support this property or method

[RedDevil2001]

Some times, when attempting to run some Application on line, a Script Error with the following message pops-up:

this object doesn't support this property or method

Does anybody what does this mean, and what is the 'object'?

Thanks,


R.D.

RD,
A HTML page with some Javascript/ VBScript programs can work with form elements, aka 'objects'.

EG

<form name=TEST>
<input type=text name=Field1>
</form>

A script can change the value of this field:
document.TEST.field1.value = 'This is an example'

Not all properties/ methods apply to all objects and of course a syntax-error is possible:
document.TEST.field1.waarde = 'This is an example'

will not work, because 'waarde' is unknown to the script engine (it's the dutch word for 'value').
