'Location' or 'Element' Object Not a Property

This article was previously published under Q154084

SUMMARY

Q. On every page of the Adventure Works demo, I receive a JScript error to the effect that the 'location' or 'element' object is not a property of the frame. I cannot recreate the error on all computers. Systems running the same operating system and browser are exhibiting different behavior. Why?

A. This error is related to the installation of Internet Explorer. During the installation, Internet Explorer Setup writes data to the Windows registry that ultimately affects how scripts update frames on pages such as the administrative applications or starter store shopping pages. However, if the user performing the installation is logged on with the Guest account or another account that lacks permissions to write to the registry, the settings supporting scripting may not be enabled.

Try to reinstall Internet Explorer using an account that has write permission to the registry. If that does not solve the problem, you may want to compare the versions of the Jscript.dll file on all the computers.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.
