Licenses

Post by Karel Haitsma »

Milonic people,

You are talking about free licenses, but to get it I have to buy one (in your DHTML menu). I have constructed a menu on my page: http://home.tiscali.nl/~t794614/0azuaeng.htm
But always the page will not load or even my ie 5.0 will crash and in my ns 7.1 the page crash too. And only online, offline everything is working okay! What I'm doing wrong?
I'm an hobby website, I'm not earning any money with it, only to inform people in the web about the Dominican Republic and Azua especially. I've put the link to your homesite, put the information in my html code, etc. etc.
Can you inform me what to do and help me, because I like the menu very much.
I'm not someone who will not pay nothing, some box is ok with me, as you 've written in your forum.

Greetings, Karel

Something wrong, my browser quit.

Try w3 validation or look at menu examples, I can't get to it right now.

Something is seriously wrong. Your page crashed IE6 on me twice!

Please post the complete HTML for the page here. Don't worry about the menu files, we'll get to those. Make sure you post the code using the [code][/code] tags.

OK, never mind the code post. I managed to get it. However this may take a little while as my boss has some work lined up for me!

I have your page working at http://www.west.asu.edu/sa/testsite/. I linked in most, but not all, of the images. The page loads, and does not blow up the browsers.

The main thing I did was remove the JS calls to these 3 items...

Code: Select all

<script language="JavaScript" src="menu1/mtazuaeng.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="menu1/rightclick_eng.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="menu1/rightclick_src.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
After that the page started working. Therefore, one of those scripts would appear to be causing the problem. Remove them one by one until you find the stinker. I'll leave that testing up to you.

For some reason you renamed the main menu code file from milonic_src.js to menu_src.js. Usually not a good idea to mess with those filenames. I'd put it back to what it was (it doesn't matter what you name the _data.js file). Note that in my working version I am calling the menu and _data files from my server, not yours.

You are 3 versions down-level in your menu code. Upgrade, as 'officially' the version you are running is no longer supported. Also, the mmenuns4 and mmenudom files, while the same version number, show different Built dates. I can't remember if Andy updated just one file in that build, but you must always replace all 3 menu code files when doing an upgrade. Moving up to 5.13 will fix that.

Some minor problems in your menu coding. Items that are numeric should not have "" around them; e.g., subimagepadding="1"; should be subimagepadding=1;, etc.

Try those and see how it goes.

Milonic people,

Here are the results of my problem: I 've upgraded all the source files, and took a severe look to all the menu codes. But still the page was crashing. I 've tested the context right click menu because the problem was there. When I put the menu codes part by part, everything went well but at least the page was crashing again. The problem was not the codes but the length of the menu! So I 've shorten the menu a little bit and now it seems to be fine.
I didn't know there was a limit to the context right click menu....
But anyway, thanks for the help.

I was not aware of a restriction there, either. But, at least it's working!
