Error message when Internet Explorer 6 uses a DHTML Edit control: "R6052 pure virtual function call"
When you host a Dynamic HTML (DHTML) Edit control, Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 or another application that uses the control crashes. Additionally, you receive the following error message:
R6052 pure virtual function call
This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:
- You loaded a page that uses the JavaServer pages (jsp) namespace.
- The page calls the ShowDetails method of the control.
A hotfix for this problem is included in the Internet Explorer 6 update that was released in December 2006. To obtain this hotfix, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
To work around this problem, use one of the following methods:
- Do not use the xmlns:jsp="" namespace.
- Use the “Safe for Scripting†version of the control for computers that are running Internet Explorer 6.
Note Internet Explorer 7 sets the "kill" bit for the "Safe for Scripting" version of the control. However, a separate installation of the DHTML Editing Control for Applications component is available for Windows Vista. This separate installation provides compatibility for Windows applications that may rely on this control. To download the DHTML Editing Control for Applications component that is available for Windows Vista, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

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.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
