Description:
(Only) when using IE as bowser:

Whenever one clicks on a 'Help' link, e.g. the one in upper right corner of the dashboard, the IE shows a scripting error (where this is my translation from a german message box):

   row:   32
   char:  5
   error: object expected
   code:  0
   URL:   http://xxx.yyy.com:38080/Help.action

After clicking 'OK' in the script error message box the help page is shown as expected.

But, only when the IE settings are set to 'always show these messages' the user is interrupted by the message box. Otherwise (which seem to be the default) only a warning icon appears in the status bar of the browser.

How to repeat:
- use IE to open the dashboard
- open any help link, like from the main page (upper right corner) or from a 'configure QUAN settings' pop-up.
