The exception handler may not catch an exception in Internet Explorer 7 or in Internet Explorer 6 when you view a Web page that throws an exception from a function that is called through the expando property

Note: This problem also occurs in Windows Internet Explorer 6 when at least one parameter is passed to the function from which the exception is thrown. To work around this problem in Internet Explorer 6, see the “Workaround” section.
