FIX: Script Wizard Skips Scriptable Objects in FrontPadID: Q165892
|
In an open document, when starting the Script Wizard from FrontPad (the Microsoft FrontPage Editor - Visual InterDev Edition) some or all scriptable objects do not appear in the Script Wizard.
The Script Wizard is incorrectly parsing the <!DOCTYPE> tag found at the very beginning of a FrontPage document. It is interpreting it as a comment. As a result, the comment is not closed until the Script Wizard encounters --> in the document. All objects between the <!DOCTYPE> tag and the end of the first comment in the document are then being treated as if they were within a comment.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This bug was corrected in Visual InterDev 6.0.
This behavior does not occur in the Visual InterDev source editor's Script
Wizard.
The document is not damaged in any way by this behavior.
