Am I crazy? There's no e-mail button at the bottom of your posts...?

Kevin--

I don't know your e-mal address..

Have PHP Version 4.2.2 on my server...

Not ready to give in yet, huh?

pavia

What happens if you remove our second block of code...

*Sigh*...the same exact error from browserdetect.php shows up and says "hi!"

pavia

!@$#^*@!!!

I get the following: Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in browserdetect.php on line 15:

1 <?php

3 /**
4 * $browser will contain one of the following values:
5 * 'iewin' : IE 4+ for Windows
6 * 'iemac' : IE 4 for Macintosh

G'morning...

Both pieces of code give this error: Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ECHO--on this line:

echo 'PlaceMenu("mainmenu");'

Hey, we're making it a little farther before it chokes!! :-)

Ruth--Netscape 4.8 on Windows is a new re-install as of about 5 days ago. I get submenus and ...

pavia

Ahhhh...the old' maximize-the-window trick. Now why didn't I think of that???

To answer your question...every echo statement is on its own line.

Ruth--

Re viewing the Milonic home page in Netscape on Windows...I have NS 4.8 and here's a screen shot from it. I think this should show the problem I have explained (about the menus locking up) because if you think about it, I don't think you can achieve what this shows under normal circumstances ...

Here's the code (note--browserdetect.php calls for "nsmac" not "ns4")

<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000">
<?php include(browserdetect.php); ?>
<?php
if ($browser == 'nsmac') {
echo '<script language="JavaScript" src="menu/menu_array.js" type="text/javascript"></script>';
echo '<script ...

Hiya Kevin...

Thanks for giving this a shot.

Right off the bat, I got this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ECHO -- on this line:

Code: Select all

echo '<script language="JavaScript" src="menu/menu_array.js" type="text/javascript"></script>';

I'm gonna have to skip addressing the PHP stuff in your last post because when it comes right down to it, neither of us know what we are doing. And I'm not saying that to be rude so PLEASE don't take it that way. I'm saying it because we know what should be done and how it should be done but ...

Hi Ruth--

Yes, I think you would put the include in the table to call the code to display either menu but I have spent hours trying to figure out how to accomplish this to no avail.

I'm about to throw in the towel on this whole Milonic thing :-(

What stymies me is that you basically have two ...

I hope it's okay to start a new topic based on a prior one? The discussion originated with this one
( http://www.milonic.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3692 )
but it has, um...evolved.

In a nutshell, I'm seeking to to circumvent some browser-specific problems which crop up in older versions of Netscape ...

Hiya Kevin...

I can do server-side scripting--PHP. I even bought a book on it.

I'm a page 23.

I'm very good at disassembling and playing with other people's PHP scripts but that's about the extent of my abilities. As it stands, I was including the Version 5 menu via a PHP include so that if ...

pavia

Sh*t. It happened a third time. The error message is that Netscape unexpectedly quit because of a Type 2 error.

Well, that explains it, huh?

Ahhh...the wonderful world of web design...

pavia

Ruth...hmmm...I tried the link you provided twice in Netscape 4.79 on the Macintosh. The first time, while mousing over links, my computer froze/crashed and I was forced to do a restart. Hey, it happens...coulda' been something else.

The second time, Netscape choked and quit on me. I'll give it a ...

pavia

Now I hate Netscape 4 even more. :-(

You suggest using a simple V5 menu as an alternative...like, no fancy stuff.

Okay...what qualifies as fancy stuff? I'm so non-fancy it's embarassing. :-)

Did my changing my "requirements"--needing this to work for a relatively-positioned menu in a table as ...

pavia

Well, here I am, following Kevin's directions and bumping this topic.

Bump...bump...bump.

Okay, yes...I have nothing intelligent or clever to say.

Bumping done.

pavia

Kevin--did you have a chance to look into loading the relatively positioned Version 5 menu for browsers that "work" and the relatively positioned Version 3 menu for crappy Netscape? I feel like a pushy jerk asking for your assistance when you've already gone out of your way to help but I am sort of ...

pavia

Kevin! Our hero!

Okay, I blew it. I forgot that I had to resort to relatively positioning the menu (placed in a table) so I'm now hung up on how to add the requisite code snippets for the "Place Menu" command for Version 3 and the actual menu items for the first row of the menu for Version 5. Is ...

pavia

I'm up-to-date on the fixes.

I basically gave up on expecting Version 5 to work flawlessly with Netscape 4. It's understandably not a priority for the developer because NS 4 sucks and is old. That's why figuring how to code javascript to load Version 3 of the menu for NS 4 browsers would be the ...
