This is releated to basic programming, in programming there are two basic errors.



A Compile time error-

An error in the code was made and the computer can not understand the code.



A Runtime Error-

Another error that was committed by a program, sometimes its looking for somthing that doesnt exist, sometimes its a conflict with another program running.



The solution:

Contact the software vendor normally. It sounds to me like this is happening in internet explorer for you. I would try to uninstall IE and reinstall it. I will link to the IE download site below.

A runtime error as opposed to a syntax error is an error that occurs when your compiler is going through the code and trying to execute it. Syntax errors can usually be noticed bu most programming environment. For instance if you try to use a variable non declared. But if you declare an integer and later on try to pass it a float, you will get an error. The IDE have not way of telling until the value is actually being passed.



How to fix it? I am not sure what environment you are using but most IDE comme with a step-through debugger. Use it to find the problem.



Hope this help or you can get a bit more specific to get specific answers.

Runtime Error -



A runtime error is caused by an error within a program's code. This is a problem at the programmers end, not yours.



What usually happens is that you (or the software) do something unexpected and the program doesn't know how to handle it. When someone creates a piece of software, they try to anticipate every possible scenario. Unfortunately, that's next to impossible and sometimes you end up with bugs, including runtime errors.



So, what do you do if you get one of these runtime errors? Contact the program vendor and let them know. I

A run-time error, in general, is an error generated during the time at which the computer is running a software application and experiences an issue.

This could be due to Spyware. You should have an anti-spyware solution on your computer. I recommend that you go to http://www.download.com and get AD-AWARE and SpyBot Search & Destory. Install, run, update and scan your computer with both programs.



You might also need an update. Check the ABOUT section from the HELP menu. You should have Version 6 with SP1. You can get this from http://www.microsoft.com Go to the Download section, then go to the Internet section. For gosh sakes, don't pick the Internet Explorer version 7 BETA... pick Version 6 with Service Pack 1.



Good luck

An mistakes that occurs in the course of the execution of a application. Runtime mistakes element out insects in this technique or issues that the designers had anticipated yet might want to do no longer something about. as an get mutually, operating out of memory will frequently reason a runtime mistakes. you are able to frequently get better gracefully from a runtime mistakes.

Read all about it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-time_error



Try updating the program "Java" from their website and see if that helps. You can do that here: http://www.java.com/en/download/windows_ie.jsp



This download is for users of Internet Explorer browser on the Windows operating system.



I hope it helps.



I've read all the others answers but if you are using Windows and Internet Explorer, I would try mine first. Javascript errors are the usual suspects (pardon the pun) and this typically works.

bad coding on a web page that is using JavaScript... or your browser is out of date. IE7 just got release so you can try that. Or better yet download Mozilla Firefox.



Make sure your computer has been updated with the most recent patches from Windows Update. Or virus check it (Chances are your machine is infected).

it means the program that runs the application has a problem and it doesn not how to deal with it.



Would have help if you said which application was erroring.



Perhaps try reinstalling it.
