SUMMARY

When it is loading an HTML page that contains JScript errors, Pocket Internet Explorer may silently ignore them and not display any error messages. This default behavior can be changed by setting a registry key that makes Pocket Internet Explorer display script errors when they are encountered.

MORE INFORMATION
