Hello,
So looking into an issue with IE6 i found the following problem.
If I install IE6, and then go to a japanese web site. (for example http://www.mainichi.co.jp) I get given the option to download and install the Japanese Text Display Support. However if i click Download then the download reports as a failure (a message about having to set your security settings from High to Medium, but that is a red herring)
The issue is that the assert in riched20/run.c line 115 is being hit during a call to RichEditANSIWndProc for the message EM_LINELENGTH. If i change the assert to instead to return 0, then the certificate dialog is displayed and the download progresses without issue. (there is still an issue with the install but that is not richedit related)
Does someone with richedit experience want to help figure out what to do with that assert beyond just changing it to an error trace and returning 0?
thanks -aric
