I have my resume, portfolio, etc. online at www.nealvaughan.com. I built it in dreamweaver 4, with no major problems until recently. I changed some of the navigation to utilize a pull down menu; however when viewed in IE with SP2 (default security settings), the damm IE disables the navigation bar because it's a security threat. I guess it's activeX? What can I do, or how can I utilize a pull-down menu that doesn't run afoul of IE's security settings on default?

CLARIFIED:

The menu I'm referring can be seen here (says Image galleries.)

Well in my testing I've encountered multiple computers that are having trouble. Since I'm sending a disc containing this website out to employers, I can't take any chances.

Here's the message, popped up on the security bar at the top of the browser page:

to help protect your security, internet explorer can restricted this file from showing active content that could access your computer....click here for options..


to which I can select disable, but the bar will keep popping up.

That is all it is. I looked at the source code, it is the typical "MM blah blah javascript"
Some of the browsers must be set with java disabled.

That's how XP with SP2 acts out of the box? Because that's why I'm getting this message, only from computers with the default security settings.


"edit"..I guess it is. I read on a java website..."(Windows XP Service Pack 2 even disables some JavaScript by default, because it regards it as active scripting)."

Sow how can I change this so it's not regarded as such?
