Disappear?

Post by mqcarpenter »

I keep having this issue with several menus. They just disappear!!! I can not figure out why. Nothing has changed. Can someone help? This one is gone right now:

http://www.gatabasketball.com/

You can view the source to see that everything seems correct. It was fine yesterday afternoon.

TIA
This is a very simple implementation of the menu.
Here is the menu_data code:

Code: Select all

fixMozillaZIndex=true; //Fixes Z-Index problem  with Mozilla browsers but causes odd scrolling problem, toggle to see if it helps
_menuCloseDelay=500;
_menuOpenDelay=150;
_subOffsetTop=2;
_subOffsetLeft=-2;

with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
onbgcolor="#000000";
oncolor="#FFFFFF";
offbgcolor="#005EAD";
offcolor="#FFFFFF";
bordercolor="#005EAD";
borderstyle="solid";
borderwidth=0;
separatorcolor="#000000";
separatorsize="0";
padding="5";
fontsize="12px";
fontstyle="bold";
fontfamily="Arial";
pagecolor="black";
pagebgcolor="#005EAD";
headercolor="#000000";
headerbgcolor="#ffffff";
subimage="";
subimagepadding=0;
}

with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
alwaysvisible=1;
left=0;
orientation="horizontal";
style=menuStyle;
top=0;
}

with(milonic=new menuname("Sponsor")){
style=menuStyle;
itemheight=20;
aI("text=Fundraisers;url=/sponsors/index.php;");
aI("text=Sponsorship;url=/sponsors/spons01.php;");
aI("image=/images/menu_drop01.jpg;type=header;");

}

drawMenus();

And the page code:

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript">
						with(milonic=new menuname("Main Menu")){
						style=menuStyle;
						top=155;
						left=200;
						alwaysvisible=1;
						orientation="horizontal";
						overfilter="";
						position="relative";
aI("image=/images/but_home01.jpg;url=http://www.gatabasketball.com;");
aI("image=/images/but_about01.jpg;url=/about/index.php;");
aI("image=/images/but_players01.jpg;url=/players/index.php;");	
aI("image=/images/but_coaches01.jpg;url=/coaches/index.php;");
aI("image=/images/but_sponsors01.jpg;showmenu=Sponsor;");
aI("image=/images/but_contact01.jpg;url=/contact/index.php;");

					}
						
						drawMenus();		
						</script>

Hi,

I'm not seeing a problem, the menu is there in the browsers I tried. I note you're downlevel. You need to update the menu to the newest version 5.737. Make sure you put a copy of your existing 3 program base files someplace as backup in case some issue comes up with the new version. You only upload and replace the 3 base files dont' upload the menu_data.js file or you'll lose all your existing coding.

You can see and use the menu? It must be this computer then. I only have this issue from my home PC. Strange.

Thanks for the check!

Well, you didn't say anything about being able to use it ;)

Yes, I can use it. But, you do need to upgrade. I do remember an issue which got fixed in an update.

I suggest you always use the newest version, just keep the 3 program files from whatever version you have before updating in a backup folder in case some issue develops.

Also, support is only provided for the newest version. It would be almost impossible for us to try and do fixes for each version out there.

To get notified when an update has come out, go here find and click the watch this topic link. You will start getting an email whenever an update is posted.

Just to be sure, you see the images at the top that make up the menu? Only the sponsors section has a drop down.

I am trying to figure out why my home view is different. I can not see it in IE, or Firefox.

I just upgraded my JS files, BTW

TIA

Here is what I see:

The menu should be in the short blue bar.

Hi,

Yes, I see the menu and the dropdown submenu for Sponsors. Do you have some security setting or something? That's all I can figure as a problem since I see it with no problems.

I'm seeing it too.

Send over a copy of the "View Source" for that page, should be able to see if any Firewall software is mucking about with your pages.

I'm seeing the full menu as well (nice job on the picture in the Sponsor menu). It works fine. XP Pro/SP2.
