You receive a content is blocked error message when you preview a Web page in FrontPage 2003
When you install FrontPage 2003 on a computer that is
running Windows Server 2003, you may experience any of the following symptoms:
- When you use the Inline Frame to embed an
existing Web page in your page, and then you click the Preview
tab, you receive the following error message:
Content
within this application coming from the Web site listed below is being blocked
by Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration.
file://C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temporary
Internet Files\FrontPageTempDir\pvw1.htm
You have entered an
invalid wildcard sequence.
Examples of valid patterns:
*://*.microsoft.com
http://*.microsoft.co.jp
ftp://157.54.23.41/
file:\\localsvr\share
*://157.54.100-200.*
Examples of invalid
patterns:
http://microsoft.*.com
ftp://*
- When you create a hyperlink, and then click the hyperlink
in a preview, nothing occurs. The hyperlink does not work.
- When you open a Web on a SharePoint Team Services server,
you are always prompted for username and password even if the SharePoint Team
Services server uses Windows Authentication.
- Some FrontPage 2003 dynamic HTML (DHTML) content is
blocked. When you preview the preview the page, DHTML content does not work or
appear correctly in the browser.
- When you preview a Web, content from outside the current
Web is blocked if it contains "unsafe" content such as scripts, or ActiveX
Controls.
This issue may occur if the Internet Explorer Enhanced
Security Configuration feature is enabled on your Windows Server 2003-based
computer. By default, this feature is enabled in Internet Explorer on Windows
Server 2003-based computers.
This enhanced level of security may
prevent certain Web sites from appearing as expected in Internet Explorer or
FrontPage 2003 previews, and programs that require the browser may not work as
expected because scripts, ActiveX Controls, and downloads are
disabled.
To resolve these issues, turn off Internet Explorer
Enhanced Security Configuration. To do this, click
Add or remove
programs in Control Panel, click
Add/Remove Windows
Components, and then click to clear the
Internet Explorer
Enhanced Security Configuration check box.
WARNING: If you turn off Enhanced Security Configuration, you may expose
your server to potential security attacks.
Regardless of the browser
that you use, it is a good idea to restrict browsing on your server. To reduce
the risk to your server of potential attacks from malicious Web-based content:
- Do not use servers for browsing general Web
content.
- Use client computers to download files such as drivers and
service packs.
- Do not view sites that you cannot confirm are
secure.
- Use a limited user account instead of an administrator
account for general Web browsing.
- Use the Group Policy feature to keep unauthorized users
from making inappropriate changes to browser security settings.
- Use client computers to develop content using FrontPage
2003.
Microsoft
has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed
