NX 7.5 Documentation doesn't work on Google Chrome 5.0.375.55

[potrero]

NX7.5, Windows XP 64, Google Chrome 5.0.375.55

Documentation used to work on Chrome, and I don't know if it is a Chrome update or something else that's caused this problem (because I hadn't noticed the version number of Chrome until now), but with the configuration listed above, only the "main" frame shows, not the navigation frame. (Incidentally, a similar problem will occur in IE8 unless the user enables "Allow Active Content to run in files on My Computer".)

Is anyone else having similar issues?

Using the Javascript console, I noticed what seems to be the source of the problem; see the error codes below:

Unsafe JavaScript attempt to access frame with URL file:///C:/Program%20Files/UGS/NX%207.5/UGDOC/html_files/mainlibrary.html from frame with URL file:///C:/Program%20Files/UGS/NX%207.5/UGDOC/html_files/collection/collectionMain.html. Domains, protocols and ports must match.

On Windows, officially, we only support Internet Explorer, but if you wish to call GTAC they might be able to help you anyway.

And as for the 'Active Content' issue, I've had to enable that Internet Security Option on virtually every Windows systems that I've ever installed NX on, and this goes back at least 7 or 8 years, so this isn't something which just cropped up with NX 7.5.
