I'm oosting this for the benefit of future Googlers, who may have the same problem:

Symptom: CBSNEWS iVideo Javascript windows don't open for the realplayer content. Any and all javascript related tweaks don't work. Nothing seems to resolve it.

Workaround: Install Opera 6 (I used 6.06 from the Opera file archive) into another directory. Tweak it how you like it, bookmarks, parameters, etc.

Then, install 7.11 *over* the 6.06 installation. The CBSNEWS iVideo windows now open as they should and all is fine.

For some reason, this issue might occur with a clean install of 7.11, but as an upgrade over 6, it works fine.
