UPDATE:
This update of March 6, 2008 concerns reports of scripting errors similar to the one pictured below when users attempted to either upload files or set image/table properties. It is absolutely critical that the following steps be followed completely to correct this error. These steps will restore normal, full access to the CMS.
This error message is the result of having a popup blocker and phishing filter enabled for trusted sites. This addendum assumes that the steps described previously in this document have been completed, and that www.rmc.edu is listed among the trusted sites on your browser.
- With the Internet Options window open (ALT+T, then select “Internet Options”), select the “Security” tab, followed by “Trusted Sites” then “Custom Level”.
- On the “Security Settings – Trusted Site Zone” window which then appears, scroll down to find options for “Popup Blocker” and “Phishing Filter” (pictured).
- Select “Disable” for both the “Use Phishing Filter” and the “Use Pop-up Blocker” options. The result should appear as follows.
- Click OK and then click “Yes” on the subsequent window (pictured).
- Finally, click “OK” on the main internet options window and restart your web browser. Login to Sitecore again and test that you are now able to access the upload feature and/or image or table properties.
