Re: Internet Explorer 9 not showing results

Ok, here are some more details. If I try to generate the test using a 
PHP script I get the following error message in IE9:


[[
SCRIPT16386: No such interface supported

testharness.js, line 1424 character 25
]]

Code on that line is

[[
w.postMessage({
 type: "start",
 properties: this_obj_properties
 }, "*");
]]



If I show the source of that file, copy it to a text file on the desktop 
and open it in IE9, it works ok.


If I try to run the test in the w3c-test.org/framework I get:

[[
SCRIPT5: Access is denied.

testharness.js, line 1408 character 21
]]

where line 1408 says

"if(is_same_origin && w.start_callback)"


In IE10 the test also works from my desktop, but i don't have the 
problem with line 1424.  I do however have the problem with line 1408 
(which is a big problem for me and others using the test framework).

I have no problem viewing the test results in Firefox, Chrome, Safari, 
Opera. It's only IE.


The PHP-generated version of the test I used for these investigations is:

http://www.w3.org/International/tests/html5/generate?test=the-input-byte-stream-009

http://w3c-test.org/framework/test/html5-i18n/single/the-input-byte-stream-009/format/html/
