Scripting Support in Pocket Internet Explorer

  • Article

Pocket Internet Explorer supports client-side JavaScript 1.5 (ECMA-262). Microsoft Visual Basic, Scripting Edition (VBScript) is not supported. In general, Pocket Internet Explorer supports the Internet Explorer 3.02 Document Object Model.

Syntax errors in JScript, missing objects, or other causes of JScript errors are ignored in Pocket Internet Explorer. The script stops without a message. Error messages can be switched on by adding the following registry key:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]

"ShowScriptErrors"=dword:00000001

The Document Object Model reference can be found at the topics under Pocket Internet Explorer HTML Objects.

For documentation on the JScript engine that is included in Pocket Internet Explorer, see the JScript documentation on MSDN.
