IE 6 problem

Please note that official support for this menu version has now ceased. There are still plenty of users, though, and the forum is still running. Some of our long-time users may be able to help you out.

IE 6 problem

Post by priyadayanand »

:(

In the version IE 6.0.2800.1106 - The menu does not show up. And throws up a bunch of errors.

In the IE Version 6.0.2800.0000 - The menu does not show up either, although it does not throw up any errors.

Even the Menus on the Milonic Website does not show up!!!!!
It throws up an error saying that

Runtime Error has occured.
Line:50 Library not registered

Are there any solutions to this problem?

I'm running 6.0.2800.1106 with no problems at all (at least not those you describe). Sounds like you might need a browser reinstall.

Sorry, Scott, but I'm still not seeing any errors at all, either on the initial load or in running through all the menus individually. All work fine. Also, the fact that you're not seeing Andy's menus points to something other than the menu system itself. His demos all work.

There have been some SP updates for IE in the past few days. Make sure everything is up to date.

Still looking for a cure....

Who is scott?

:roll: You seem to have not taken the time to understand the problem.
Yes, of course the menu's on those sites work ok or I and Andy would have major problems. The point is, is that I have ONE person that has reported a problem to me, a problem that despite various efforts and applying all latest patches remains. I too have a machine with IE 6, and do not experience the error. It does not change the fact that my friend gets this error on every Milonic Menu site that he comes across.

:idea: Additional information:
I am not sure if the line number reported is the line within mmenu.js, but in both the cited versions the line number corresponds with the popup function.

I found this using Google
http://vindaloo.milonic.co.uk/pipermail ... 00135.html
http://vindaloo.milonic.co.uk/pipermail ... 00149.html

So, try removing the filter (fading effect and such)

No idea, Mark. Sorry 'bout that.
You seem to have not taken the time to understand the problem.
I think I did. Since it is only one person who is having the problem it seems logical that person has a problem on his machine, patches installed or not.

Is it a bug or isn't it?

Post by snapey »

By posting in the 'bug reports' section of the site, I didn't mean to imply that I thought this was a bug with the menu, I was just following the thread of someone with the identical fault.

Maybe finding a solution to the problem will make the menu more robust or at least poor webmasters such as myself may be able to get on with something more constructive than defending my choice of menu to clients.

Stop Press.. As I write this, great news!
Following the Excellent tip by CLINDH, I wrote to my customer:
Can you try the following commands:

Start, Run then enter : regsvr32 dxtmsft.dll

Start, Run then enter : regsvr32 dxtrans.dll

I am hoping that one of these commands will return an error indicating that the DLL is corrupted or not installed. If so, then I will come back with a repair method.
And he has just replied...
Congratulations

We can now both sleep in peace

I ran both commands as you asked

To my dismay they both reported registerserver succeeded

I therefore logged onto http://www.rotary1220.org to give a report and to my absolute surprise the floating links bar appeared

I still have in the following set

Internet Options - Advanced, clear the checkbox "disable script debugging" and check "display a notification about every script error".
but no errors appeared

I visited Microlise.co.uk No errors

Another site which reported errors was http://www.continental.com but again No errors

You have succeeded

Many thanks
So thanks to CLINDH, Google and Andy for spotting which DLL was involved.
