    Error with Web Browser!

    Hey everybody,

    I am creating a web browser and every time i visit a certain site (yahoo), i get an error saying that javascript needs to be enabled. Here is the exact wording:

    "This page requires that you have Javascript enabled on your browser. If you're not sure how to do this, click here."

    Any help on how to disable the error, enable javascript, or anything would be much appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Re: Error with Web Browser!

    Thanks for your quick replies and help,

    but I am still getting the same error message. When I followed your steps for fixing it the checkbox was already checked. Here is some more info on the error:

    Type: Chrome HTML
    URL: https://edit.yahoo.com/nonJsLandingPage?intl=us

    I have tried webbrowser1.silent = True but it says silent is not part of the Form. I think that is Vb 06 code though, so if there is an equivalent for vb.net that might work.
    Thanks again!
