Howdy there --

First time here. I've decided to make the switch to WMP, but I've been
having one small issue. I have XP Pro SP2, and WM 10.00.00.3646.

Whenever I right click on a music file in my library, and select "Find Album
Info," I get a scripting error.

Line: 825
Char: 3
Error: Object doesn't support this property or method
Code: 0
URL:
http://metaservices.windowsmedia.com/CDWizard/CDWizardCoronaJInfo.asp?RequestId=1FC20B46-BE89-4E1C-B137-366E2D7B71BD&WMPFriendly=True

Now, I have ActiveScript enabled in my Internet options. When I get the
above error message, Visual Studio offers me the option of debugging the
script in question. The script debugger says this error is a Microsoft
JScript error.

Some more details:
The method in question is "function SetupPage()". Apparently .reload() is
an unsupported method, because:
> document.all("bgServices").reload(); // error is here
doesn't work.

After some more digging, I discover that document.all(Object) can call upon
form objects. I browse in the broken page to find a div with an
id=bgServices. This div is styled with display: none;, and then linked to
some page called bgPlayer10.htc. So apparently .reload isn't supported on
this div.

Is my IE dealing with Microsoft's own CSS oddly? Any help would be greatly
appreciated!

Thanks,
Martin
