Calling a script on a web page causes "Permission denied" error in IE9

Hello all,



in my test project I have a method that calls a JavaScript function in the tested page (a page with an infragistics grid control) via contentDocument.Script:



var myGrid = myPageObj.contentDocument.Script.igtbl_getGridById(myID)



This is to obtain reference to the grid in order to perform various actions in its cells.

It works perfectly in Firefox 22 but does not work on IE9 -> there I get a runtime error in JScript  with "Permission denied." message.



I guess it must be some security setting for Internet Explorer, but all my attempts to set the right configuration are futile.



TestComplete version is 9.30.3373.7 on a Win 7 Professional x64.



I wonder if somebody could point me in the right direction?



Many thanks for any hints.

    Hi Marin,



    Just an idea: do you start TestComplete using the 'Run As Administrator' option?

    Hello Alexei,



    many thanks for your reply.

    I am local administrator on the machine where I start the TestComplete IDE.

    Today I updated to the latest build 9.31.3889.7 but the behavior is the same there unfortunately.



    To check if admin rights are causing this I started TC "As Administrator" but to no avail - the "Permission denied" error will be thrown when the above mentioned line of code is executed - in Internet Explorer only.

    In Firefox 23.0.1 everything works OK - no error is thrown there... I am really clueless.



    Is there anything that I could do to get to the bottom of the problem? Any suggestions to enable detailed logging or similar?



    Many thanks again for attending to this.
