SymError

Post by jeepee »

Hi all...

I am new to this forum and hope someone can help me with an error that I get on my page.

I made the site in Adobe GoLive 5.0 (yeah the old one...) and on my PC all is working just great and it looks the way I want it to look.
Online however it doesn;t work... I get this message in the source code:

This is in the <head>

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--

function SymError()
{
return true;
}

window.onerror = SymError;

var SymRealWinOpen = window.open;

function SymWinOpen(url, name, attributes)
{
return (new Object());
}

window.open = SymWinOpen;

//-->
</script>


And this code is below the end code of the page </html>


<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
var SymRealOnLoad;
var SymRealOnUnload;

function SymOnUnload()
{
window.open = SymWinOpen;
if(SymRealOnUnload != null)
SymRealOnUnload();
}

function SymOnLoad()
{
if(SymRealOnLoad != null)
SymRealOnLoad();
window.open = SymRealWinOpen;
SymRealOnUnload = window.onunload;
window.onunload = SymOnUnload;
}

SymRealOnLoad = window.onload;
window.onload = SymOnLoad;

//-->
</script>

Please help...

Thanks for your time!

Hi,

We need to see the page to see what's up. Can you post the url so we can test the problem?

Hi,

Sounds like you are using Norton Internet Security. It modifies your web pages and removes JavaScript errors, that's why your pages don't work.

Best bet would be to remove Norton and replace it with a better Internet Security system.

BTW - are you actually using the menu?

This is the Test page I made:

http://www.jdcollectorspage.com/HomepageTEST.htm

It's a Frame set with 4 frames, left side empty, sec. is the banner/navigation page, third is the main page and the right side is empty.

As I sad on my PC is works perfect but online it doesn;t work...

I just made one page to see if everything works. The site is pretty big so before I change and ad text to it I wanted to see if it works.

I want to buy the menu licenses if all works.


I do got Norton running.

Hi,

It's definately Norton causing it.

What I suggest you try is this



Change this code in your HTML:

Code: Select all

<noscript><a href="https://milonic.com/">DHTML Menu By Milonic JavaScript</a></noscript>	
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/milonic_src.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
if(ns4)_d.write("<scr"+"ipt type=text/javascript src=javascript/mmenuns4.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");
  else _d.write("<scr"+"ipt type=text/javascript src=javascript/mmenudom.js><\/scr"+"ipt>");
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/menu_data_body.js"></script>

To this:

Code: Select all

<noscript><a href="https://milonic.com/">DHTML Menu By Milonic JavaScript</a></noscript>	
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/milonic_src.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/mmenudom.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="javascript/menu_data_body.js"></script>

And then let us know if that helps or not?

Cheers,
Andy

I don't use Norton, never have.

I do, however, see the menus just fine.

All is working fine now!

I just stopped Norton for the second time and all works just great. Then I put Norton back on and it is still working. I closed the window a few times and it's still OK

I don't get it...

:lol:

I will buy the licence tomorrow. If I got it then I can remove the link and use it free from advertisement?

I apprecaite your time Andy! Thanks

I'm back...

It's gone again. Didn't change anything. I only checked if it was working on Netscape and Firefox. Both didn't work.
Then I opened a new IE screen and here the sub menu's where gone too.

The Milonic site navigation works perfect on all three browsers and with my Norton on.

Sorry Andy... Helppppp

Hi all,

I just bought my licence and removed the link to Milonic.

All is still the same as yesterday... not working online (In GoLive on my PC it works great).

I tried to find the frame menu (no.5 ?) in the download page but couldn't find it.

Please help me...

Hi,

In your download when you unzip the file it should create a bunch of folders. One of them is extras. In the extras folder are another bunch of folders and one of them is frames.

I see the menu and it works fine. Of course I'm assuming that because this is a test you haven't put the calls for the body files on the other pages that load in the right frame but will when you get this settled.

There were a number of topics about Norton Internet Security when they first started their keyword automatic blocking and pop up blocking, but I don't know if that is the issue here since I use Zone Alarm.

I found this topic which has a link to keyword list

viewtopic.php?t=4582

Here a small update on the problem.

It all works great right now. I had to shut down Norton's Anti Spam ad blocking to let it work. I have also installed a second (horizontal) menu that is working together with the first one (vertical menu). Thanks!

* There is one little but... I do not think that shutting down Norton can't be asked from the visitors to do. How can I get the system to work "with Norton". I have checked the list of words that could cause the problem (on Norton's ban list like ad, advertsement, banner etc.) and I haven't use any of them.

BTW... Norton's Pop-up Window Blocking is also causing problems with some java scripts menu's (not this script).

I am very happy with the navigation system so far. Thanks!

I take it the menu works fine on our website at http://milonic.com ?

If so, what I suggest you do is remove all menu items except for the first one, then test, then add another, test again, add another, test again, and so on................ until you find the culprit.

Unfortunately, Norton won't give us any info on blocked keywords so we can't help any further.

Basically, Norton Internet Security is a VERY poorly written piece of software and I personally hate it.

Cheers,
Andy
