/ undefined error with Version 1.3 Tooltip and V 5.7 Menu

[jimsohn]

I installed V 5.7 Menu and the associated Version 1.3 tooltip script. If one places the cursor over a tooltip message you will see that the URL ends in /undefined. Of course if you click on the tooltip you get a page not found error.
I didnt notice this to be the case with the older tooltip/menu sw.

Basically the tooltip is a hot link.

You can see what I am talking about from the URL:

I have tooltips assigned to 'home' 'pastor tony' 'tidbits' & '50th anniversary'

It's working on our main site, so I don't think there's a menu problem. The only thing I see is a small syntax error. You have...

Code: Select all

aI("text=Home;url=index.html;status= To The Home Page;onfunction=showtip('Back to Home Page')");

Should be...

Code: Select all

aI("text=Home;url=index.html;status= To The Home Page;onfunction=showtip('Back to Home Page');");

Note the additional ; towards the end of the aI (after ...Page') ). The end of every aI is always ;"); Many of yours are not.

John,
If you go to sample 6 and hold the mouse over Home, then move to click the tooltip you get a 'link' action, but it goes to the page not found error page. It's almost as if the tooltip is function like it expects a link to be there. I did mess around and in the tooltips changed the type=tooltips to type=header which stops the link action, but I don't think you're supposed to do that.

Hi All,

It does seem that there's a little problem with the tooltips thinking that they're links, but linking to "undefined". I'm sure that'd be an easy fix for Andy, for type=ToolTip. Meantime, here's a temporary fix that will make a tooltip item act like any other menu item that has no url defined.

In tooltips.js, change line 33 from

Code: Select all

aI("text=;type=ToolTip;");

to

Code: Select all

aI("text=;type=ToolTip;url=javascript:void(0);");

Cheers,

Kevin

Fixed for version 5.71 now up.

Once I get a minute, I'll update the release log, It is Sunday after all

Cheers
Andy

Ummm.... nevermind.

Andy, thanks & thanks to others who commented on this topic. I downloaded V 5.71 and installed it just now. All is well. The tooltip does NOT exhibit a link characteristic now.

Your fast as usual, Andy.

Guess I need a steadier hand or something. Couldn't see the failure.
