c# WPF Webbrowser with Highchart, Javascript from external source not working "An error has occurred in the script on this page"

2

I am trying to find out why my chart is not showing up in my WPF WebBrowser. When I load my html file, I have the following error:

enter image description here

I think that IE might be blocking Highchart(Javascript from external Source) in the WPF WebBrowser because when I try to load it with IE my page got restricted from running script or ActiveX Control :

enter image description here

I know how to allow IE to run script or ActiveX Control but I don't know how to allow it in my WPF WebBrowser.

I have tried with a Mark Of The Web but I'm not sure if i am using it properly ?

I have also tried some desperate method like adding my program in :

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION\MyProgram.exe and MyProgram.vshost.exe with Value 0x00002af9

I would really appreciate some help.

I don't have find any answer that fix this problem so far.

SOLUTION

Without any change in my PC Security Configuration i fixed this problem by adding this in the header of my html file :

<meta http-equiv="x-ua-compatible" content="IE=11"> 

See Alexander Ryan Baggett Answer for more information or this link.

Okay, this works fine for me.

I added <meta http-equiv="x-ua-compatible" content="IE=11">. I also loaded the HTML file locally in visual studio by adding it to the project and setting it to copy always. I did not end up having to make any registry adjustments on my machine either.

C# file

        using System;
        using System.IO;
        using System.Windows;

        namespace Stackoverflow_question
        {
            public partial class MainWindow : Window
            {
                public MainWindow()
                {
                    InitializeComponent();
                    string curDir = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();
                    webbrowser1.Navigate(new Uri(String.Format("file:///{0}/test.html", curDir))) ;
                }
            }
        }

HTML file

        <!DOCTYPE HTML>

                        lineWidth: 2

                    legend: {
                        enabled: false
                    },
                    tooltip: {
                        headerFormat: "<b>{series.name}</b><br/>",
                        pointFormat: "{point.x} km: {point.y}°C"
                    },
                    plotOptions: {
                        spline: {
                            marker: {

                    series: [{

                });
            </script>
        </body>
        </html>

It gives a nice result too. enter image description here

If this code doesn't resolve your issue. I would suspect something needs to be changed about your Local Intranet Security Zone settings.
