Loading an htmlfile object from text - how to disable embedded scripts ?

Show all headers | View raw

Hello all,

I'm trying to search thru a HTML string as if its a DOM document.    For 
that I create an "htmlfile" object and ".write" the string into it.  So far, 
so good.    The problem is that I get a warning dialog asking me if I want 
to run the embedded scripts in it.  Which ofcourse I do not want and also 
throws a wrench in the automation process (needs human intervention).

The full script looks like this:
Set oDOM = CreateObject("htmlfile")
oDOM.Write sData
oDOM.Close

Questions:

1) Where can I find documentation on the VBScript "htmlfile" object ?
Half an hours worth googeling for "htmlfile" plus a combination of other 
keywords or even for the objects classid (taken from the registry) gets me 
nowhere.

2) How do I tell it to ignore (not run) any-and-all active content (just 
load the text for DOM parsing) ?

Regards,
Rudy Wieser
