Topic: Error on page - Object expected

When pressing a user name in forum_topics.asp or forum_posts.asp I get an "Error on page - Object expected" error.

The strange thing is that this doesn't happen on "default.asp"

What can be the problem ?

You can see it here : http://shafan.co.il/forum - http://shafan.co.il/forum (though it's in hebrew)

Thanks in advance,

Gal

have you edited the page in any way,

does the error come within the pop up?

you may try re uplaoding also as the file may have become corrupt.

The error is displayed in the "status bar" of the browser in the relevant page and not within the pop up

The page was not changed and is not corrupt. I've re-installed it, and I'm using the exact file in other domain..

ive just looked on your site, the error is because it can't find te javascript opwn window command.

the openwin();

command found on the default page needs adding to the pages that you are having problems with. the code that needs adding is below



<script  language="JavaScript">

<!-- Hide from older browsers...


//Function to open pop up window

function openWin(theURL,winName,features) {


 	window.open(theURL,winName,features);
}


</script>

Should it be added in each of the problematic pages ? or is there one place where it should be added ?

also it is strange, because the function deinition doesn't exist in default.asp

thanks

Thanks for your assitance, however I found the problem

In header.asp the following line was deleted :

I've added it and now it's ok

Thanks for your efforts
