Somehow my JavaScript got turned off in IE 6. I can't find
a switch to change or checkbox to check. Can anyone tell
me where I need to go to reactive JavaScript? (Even
Microsoft's own Knowledge Base is JavaScript based so I
can't even check that out!)

Thanks.

I tried that -- no changes. I've tried all of the Security
switches -- even going so far as turning off security
entirely. No luck. I even tried to reinstall the latest
version of IE 6, but XP said a "newer" version already
existed on the system and it cancelled the install.

You might want to refresh your scripting engine:

Frank, I have tried this and I apologize for my stupidity
but what exactly do your select after you've accessed this
area? There is no JavaScript.

Scroll down to Scripting.

Thanks, Frank. I wasn't sure "scripting" referred to
JavaScript. Thanks a lot.

It refers to any scripting enclosed within <script> </script> tags.
