Hey group,
Hope someone can help me. My web site I'm currently building - everything is working ace in IE7, but seems every other browser has problems with both the javascript and CSS template I've got.
So one thing at a time, I have the following code to populate categories to a combo box:
function populateCats() {
var opt = document.createElement("option");
document.getElementById("CatSel").options.add(opt);
opt.text = "Visual Basic";
opt.value = "5";
var opt = document.createElement("option");
document.getElementById("CatSel").options.add(opt);
opt.text = "PHP";
opt.value = "3";
}
And when it's clicked on (and the intial page loading), it runs the following code to switch the sub-categories:
function switchCat(category, subCategory, blnLoad) {
var i;
var Cats = new Array(1);
Cats[0] = new Array(3);
Cats[0][0] = "Visual Basic";
Cats[0][1] = "10#@#Functions";
Cats[0][2] = "12#@#Methods";
Cats[0][3] = "14#@#Constants";
Cats[1] = new Array(2);
Cats[1][0] = "PHP";
Cats[1][1] = "16#@#Classes";
Cats[1][2] = "17#@#Tutorials";
document.mainform.SubCatSel.options.length = 0;
for (i=0;i<Cats.length;i++) {
if (Cats[i][0] == category) { var index = i; break; }
}
for (i=1;i<Cats[index].length;i++) {
var opt = document.createElement("option");
valSplit = Cats[index][i].split("#@#");
valID = valSplit[0];
valText = valSplit[1];
document.getElementById("SubCatSel").options.add(opt);
opt.text = valText;
opt.value = valID;
if ((blnLoad === true) && (valID == subCategory)) {
var y = i;
}
}
if ((blnLoad === true) && (subCategory != null)) {
document.getElementById("SubCatSel").options.selectedIndex = (y - 1);
}
}
It's a little crude, but constructed on the page load from a PHP/MySQL script I made.
It works on IE7, but other browsers like Chome and Safari, doesn't seem to... (I haven't been able to test on IE8 yet). Can someone explain why, or how I can alter it slightly to behave?
Thanks in advance,
Jesse.
