So I'm putting some error traps in an IE script to deal with the
possibility of a blank window (no URL). Well, some browsers throw an
error, some return a "", one even returns "about:blank" (all easy to
handle), but not IE. That piece of fetid dingo droppings returns the
mother of all window info lists for a blank window. Feast your eyes on
this. (I've sent it with styled text on just to give you the full impact,
but the list server will probably alter it some of it so it doesn't look
quite so strange.)
{""//avaraq/\\avaraq/:avaraq/@avaraq//a-aavaraq/?avaraq/?U$&K@UD&K/Ud&K%UQ&K5hU'&K
U&KU&Kj8`?H??+Y+Y};%;lines= jk #avaraq/", "Untitled"}
Observe that this is a two item list, and the first item is where the URL
should be. The question is, what the heck is that stream of garbage? And
what is it doing where nothing (i.e., "") should be? I'm curious enough
to ask, should anyone know, but not ready to waste any time trying to
figure it out, intriguing though it is.
