2356	IE7 Access Denied - Local Filesystem	Samuel Smith	Martin Kou	"Problem: Opening any of the html sample pages of FCKEditor from the filesystem in IE7 gives an ""Access Denied"" error coming from file fckeditor\editor\js\fckeditorcode_ie.js on line 62 with the code: ""B.open(""GET"",A,false);"".

This has been resolved by me in the post:

Basically the native IE7 XmlHttpRequest Object appears to not allow requests on the filesystem. Here is the offending code causing the issues: (file fckeditor\editor\_source\internals\fcktools_ie.js)

FCKTools.CreateXmlObject = function( object )
{
   var aObjs ;

   switch ( object )
   {
      case 'XmlHttp' :
         // Try the native XMLHttpRequest introduced with IE7.
         try { return new XMLHttpRequest() ; } catch (e) {}   // bad for use on local filesystem

         aObjs = [ 'MSXML2.XmlHttp', 'Microsoft.XmlHttp' ] ;  // use this instead for local filesystem
         break ;

      case 'DOMDocument' :
         aObjs = [ 'MSXML2.DOMDocument', 'Microsoft.XmlDom' ] ;
         break ;
   }

   for ( var i = 0 ; i < 2 ; i++ )
   {
      try { return new ActiveXObject( aObjs[i] ) ; }
      catch (e)
      {}
   }

   if ( FCKLang.NoActiveX )
   {
      alert( FCKLang.NoActiveX ) ;
      FCKLang.NoActiveX = null ;
   }
   return null ;
