Hi All,
I'm trying to open a custom website in IE9 using sahi.
The website loads when no proxy is entered.
But after entering proxy as localhost:9999 (which is necessary to open sahi recorder) website does not load and gives the following error:
SCRIPT5022: DOM Exception: INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR (5)
mootools-1.2.2-core.js, line 121 character 71
Thanx in advance.

Most probably, the Sahi scripts are injected in the file you are trying to read, thus the parsing error.
I got this kind of errors when parsing XSL files.
Try adding the file name regexp pattern in userdata/config/exception_inject.txt: this will prevent Sahi to add its scripts.
