Dear JavaScripters:

     The text that I am using refers to javascript: and about:
protocols.  None of the examples will run on my system (IE 9 on
Windows 7).

     For
          javascript:Date()
I get nothing.  For
          about:cache
and
          about:plugins
I get a message of "Navigation to the webpage was canceled / What you
can try: / - Retype the address."

     I have looked for settings to enable these and have found
nothing.  What am I missing, please?

Sincerely,

Gene Wirchenko
