Topic: Error on Page for page drop down & smiley Posted: 28 May 2004 at 2:09pm |
Hi, For some reason I kept on have problem on my bottom page Navi drop down list where it just doesn't link to other page, and my emotion icons view more link. I fixed it couple time with the files I had for backup and it fixed it, but later on the problem came back again. I didn't do any setting change or anything.
I just upgrade from 7.01 to 7.8 yesterday.
I tried to view the error, the Page drop down Shows ------------------------------------- Line:688 Char:1 Error:Object expected Code:0 URL://http://www.mysite.com/bb/forum_post.asp?TID=5&a mp;PN=1 -------------------------------------
On my emotions icon More... link ------------------------------------ Line:1 Char:1 Error:Object expected Code:0 URL://http://www.mysite.com/bb/forum_post.asp?TID=248 &PN=1 -------------------------------------

Looks like a corrupted file, or something prevent the javascript to open a new window from executing.
Try reuploading files again.
If this doesn't solve the problem, use Mozilla Firebird from http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ as it has a much better JavaScript debugging tool that can help track down the error better.

Actually I upgraded from 7.01 to 7.8 recently. This is how I did it
-I created another forum on the same site under mysite.com/forum/ -I modify & upgrade it the way I want it to be -I replace all the upgraded and modified files except database to my original site mysite.com/bb/ -everything would see to look fine and work at the very beginning, but 5-10 min later the links are broken(showing java error) again.
And, I just found out the links on mysite.com/bb/ only work when I leave the mysite.com/forum/ on my site, and the links show error when I delet the mysite.com/fourm from my site, then it works again when I put mysite.com/forum/ back in the site. I'm wondering is there any connections to it?? I tried to replace the whole /bb/ with v7.8 I just downloaded, but the same problem still exist, so I guess it comes down to leave my testing forum on or not ?!!

- Check the path to your database.
- Turn off friendly HTTP errors in IE so that you get detailed error messages to findout what the problem is.
- Use Mozilla Firebird as this is much better when trying to determine the problem, and it's a better browser than IE.

I assume you mean Firefox when saying Firebird?
have you modified header.asp? if yes, have a look at it and see if you
can find this line
<script language="javascript"
src="includes/default_javascript.js"
type="text/javascript"></script> |
if you can't find that line, insert it and I think it should work..
Did the same thing myself and it took me days to figure out what was wrong 
< ="" src="includes/default_.js" ="text/">
< ="" src="includes/default_.js" ="text/">

Firebird is an older version of firefox.

Yes, I modified my header.asp. Yes, I did have the line that connect the external js. No, I didn't have it connect to /bb/ after I replace the files with /forum/. That explains why links didn't work after I deleted /forum/.  ... That was a terrible mistake I overlooked... Thanks for your help, or I probably wouldn't realize where to go look at.
