Hi there.

First time posting, so hello to all. My problem is as such. I have created a set of navigation links on my web site, 3 of which have pop up menus attached to them via dreamweaver MX.

When I view the site of the local HD in IE it works fine. If i view it off the net in IE, i get error messages and the pop ups dont work. If i view it in netscape from either source it works fine. On my other PC it displays fine in all 4 ways, and only 1 othe rperson has experienced this problem, however that's 2 too many IMO.

Has anyone come across this before, and if so what might the difficulty be?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Some coding error?...
you'd need to post a link to page or post your code here to get a sensible answer...

Sure,

The page is http://home.primus.ca/~sjarvis1415/jaybirdtest/
and the mm_menu.js is in the same directory at http://home.primus.ca/~sjarvis1415/jaybirdtest/mm_menu.js. I thought it could be a coding or even browser security error, but when it works on IE from local but not from the uploaded version, same browser same PC, it becomes a bit confusing. And, as stated, only two people have seen this error.

Thanks again.

Hmmm,

Well therein lies the problem. Since the error messages im getting ((line : 328, char : 46, error : unterminated string constant / line : 20, char : 11, error ''menu' is undefined' upon opening the page) and (line : 75, char : 1, error : object expected x 2) when rolling over the button on left) are isolated to only the one browswer (IE) from one of two sources (download from internet, but not local) I'm not sure how one could recreate the error other than to view it on one of the browsers that is showing the error.

The pop ups being referred to are the menus from "about us", "trail riding" and "photo gallery". When I mouse over those using the browser/source combination mentioned above, I get the error messages. Not in netscape, and not in IE on this PC from either source.

Both locally and on the remote server the html page and the .js file are in the same directory.

Thanks for your time in this matter.

Since I could not regenerate any errors, its tough to suggest something with confidence.
One thing that I noticed that can be done differently is the import statement for the *.js file

if you look at the code ,you have this line

<script language="JavaScript" src="mm_menu.js"></script>

below the javascript code..In my opinion it sould be above the reast of the code just below the title tags....I am prety sure it should take care of the problem
