IE Operation Aborted

Post by HaroldKumar »

I have Milonic V5.749 and am using a vertical menu. My problem is only in IE. If I hit F5 to refresh while I jiggle the mouse in the menu area, I get a Error Dialog Box "Operation Aborted".

I can fix it with buildAfterLoad=false; but I have set it to true because the submenus are transparent if this is not set to true.

Any ideas, here's the top:
_menuCloseDelay=500;
_menuOpenDelay=150;
_subOffsetTop=6;
_subOffsetLeft=-10;
buildAfterLoad=true;

with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
bordercolor="#888888";
borderstyle="solid";
borderwidth=1;
fontfamily="Arial";
fontsize="11px";
fontstyle="normal";
fontweight="bold";
headerbgcolor="#0082a9";
headercolor="#ffffff";
offbgcolor="#ffffff";
offcolor="#111122";
onbgcolor="#cccccc";
oncolor="#555555";
padding=4;
pagebgcolor="#82B6D7";
pagecolor="black";
separatorcolor="#2D729D";
separatorsize=1;
subimage="/js/milonicV5/arrow.gif";
subimagepadding=2;
overfilter="Shadow(color=#777777', Direction=135, Strength=2)";

}

Hi,

You need to upgrade to 5.751 which is the newest version. Just get it and upload only the 3 base files milonic_scr.js, mmenudom.js and mmenuns4.js

This problem has resurfaced. It's much more likely to happen over a slower link.

Any ideas? I'm using 5.753.

Hi,

I'm not sure what the problem is. How many people are going to hit F5 to refresh and jiggle the mouse over the menu?

What exactly is happening and what is a slow link?

You don't have to hit F5, you could just click on a link and jiggle it over the menu while the page loads. Slow link = slower internet connection.

It's hard to duplicate over a LAN because the menu loads fast. That's why I described the F5 as I'm able to duplicate the error on a LAN by doing an F5 with a mouse jiggle.

Also, it only seems to happen if I have buildAfterLoad=true;

But if I set that to false, then the menu zOrder gets messed up and other divs on page are in front of menu.

An additional question that might solve the problem.

How do you change zIndex on menus or submenus?

Hi,

You don't as far as I know. I'd think you'd change the z-index of the div in which you have the menu.

I can try testing it, but I'd need the page. If you can't post a test page on the web, you'd need to post the html, css and the menu data file here and I'll try to make a page for testing.

This is what happens when you overthink things........
