I am using CHtmlView to show HTML pages from online into my application. Whenever the site/page tries to load any '.js' file or script it throws Script Error dialog and unable to load few items from the page. I have made SetSilent(TRUE)
to avoid error messages, but still the Script Error occurs without showing the dialog. How can I overcome this problem?

This is not an answer, but I believe that the instance of IE embedded in the CHTMLView runs with increased security that may disable javascript. – user1793036 Mar 27 '14 at 01:12

To avoid JavaScript errors, one must create a value in registry edit under the following registry path,
32-bit : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION
64-bit : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION
value name : your application name(eg: sample.exe)
value : refer to this page

What was the solution? The MSDN web page might have changed and I don't know what value to use. – Louis Nov 11 '16 at 17:07

@Louis I guess you did not go through properly. The page clearly says what value should be used. Check out the "Browser Emulation" in the page. – HariDev Nov 14 '16 at 04:44

I'm looking at the link, I don't see what value to use to stop the javascript errors either? – df234987 May 20 '20 at 01:08

@HariDev If your application is x64 do you still need to use the Wow6432Node or is that only for x86 apps running on Windows x64 ? – df234987 May 20 '20 at 03:40

@df234987 those are values that emulate the mentioned browser version on the HTML view on your application. If I still remember correctly, the application was targeted for x86. Currently, I'm not working on this. – HariDev May 22 '20 at 03:57

Editing the registry will suspend all alert messages. There is another way to avoid error alerts in your web page. Just add the following codes in the page:
<script type="text/javascript" >
function fnOnError(msg,url,lineno){
return true;
}
window.onerror = fnOnError;
</script>
