Error: The server threw an exception

**Yani** · 12-03-2004 08:14 AM

I have two html (first.htm and second.htm). There is a SELECT (Dropdown) Box in first.htm. There is a button in first.htm. Once the button is clicked, the second.htm will be opened. I wrote a JavaScript in second.htm, to add new options to its opener (first.htm)'s DropDown box. I got error msg (Error: The server threw an exception).

*** Source of first.htm ***

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META NAME="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0">
<TITLE></TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<form name="form1">
<input type="text" name="text"><br>
<select name="DBox">
<option value=""> </option>
</select>

<input type="button" name="Click" value="click" onclick="void(window.open('test1.htm'));">
</form>
</BODY>
</HTML>

*** Source of second.htm ***

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META NAME="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0">
<TITLE></TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<script>
window.opener.document.form1.DBox.options[window.opener.document.form1.DBox.length] = new Option("D","D",false);
close();
</script>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Surely it's a server problem. No?

I got a help message says "R6025 - pure virtual function call" yesterday when I debugged the error. I forgot how did I get the message. I couldn't get it today.

do the same check in firefox(web browser) and look at javascript console included in firefox...

It works with Firefox. So it must be something related to IE. How could I solve this problem in IE? All my customer are using IE.

Thanks a lot.

Well I slapped that stuff on my own server and my server delivered it fine. Naturally the Javascript didn't work though.
