Folks,
I've found a nice menu piece of javascript that works fine when the code is
included entirely inside the html page. However, when I place the
javascript code outside, in its own ".js" type file, it doesn't execute.
IE6 reports an error "Object expected" line 30, char 1, code 0. This is the
BODY tag which I've pasted below (with carriage returns to make it easier to
read). I cannot understand as to how this line could be problematic though
since its the exact same in my 'inline' script which works.
<BODY marginwidth="0"
marginheight="0 "
style="margin: 0"
onLoad="writeMe nus()"
onResize="if (isNS4) nsResizeHandler ()">
Why does it fail? How do I fix it? If it helps further, I have the code
uploaded and available at:
This is where the menu is 'inline' http://www.wiredwords.net/a.htm
This is where the menu is included using <script src=></script> tags http://www.wiredwords.net/b.htm
Thanks in advance,

Change this:
<script src=/b.js></script>
To this:
<script src="b.js">
</script>
That carriage return seems to help for some browsers. Also get your
quoting right. And, unlike me, check to make sure you are actually
pointing to teh file's correct location.

Thanks for the quick response but... Nope... that didn't do it - IE now
reports the error on line 31 (since I placed a carriage return in like you
suggested) - this is the BODY tag. I also cleared my cache, re-tried and
rechecked my cache... The correct "b.js" file is loaded (and visable in my
cache)... But to cover myself, I actually said
<script src="http://www.wiredwords. net/b.js">
</script>
(thus I specified the full server path in the source).
Any other ideas? Scripts are still available on http://www.wiredwords.net/a.htm (this works) http://www.wiredwords.net/b.htm (this fails)
Also FYI... for some reason my Outlook Express asked me to download Japanese
character set to read your post... dunno if you knew this or if you have
some character that you have included in your signature....
thanks

You have left the <script ...> and </script> lines in your ".js" file. They
are HTML constructs and don't belong there. You just need the JavaScript.

Unless it is actually on a different server, specifying teh full server
path is bad form, as some browsers won't cache properly that way. I
concur with Graham - you shouldnt have those <script> tags or <!--html
comment--> tags in the .js file.

I think your computer is getting lonely, and wants a few more fonts to
play with. DOwnload or not, you choose. I believe there is even an
option on the lines of dont ask me this again. I know I can change the
defaults, but msoe is so tightly integrated that it will cause all kinds
of not fun problems if I mess with that setting.

This is HTML, not Javascript.
The script HTML tag is used to include the content (which should be
Javascript) in an HTML document. When you have a stand-alone Jasascript
file, all of the content must be Javascript.
While browsers might allow HTML comments in Javascript, it is not
correct. Use Javascript comments instead.

I'm trying to use some code I found here -
http://javascript.internet.com/navigation/click-to-expand-menu.html
When I open this page in my browser (Firefox at the moment), the
click-expand menu works fine. If I do show->page source, copy the source
to a local file, then open the file in my browser, the menus are
expanded and there are no click buttons.
Likewise, I can't copy the code given on the web page and make it work
either.

Hi All,
I've just noticed that there seem to be two ways of setting up a global.asax
file.
At http://www.csharphelp.com/archives/archive206.html the global.asax
example has Application_Start etc within <script runat="server"> ...
</script> tags, whereas VS.Net creates a global.asax.cs file that is
presumably pre-compiled like a .aspx.cs file.

Hi Guys,
1. As we know usually we should not define a constructor as inline. I also
learned if we define a member function inside the class this member function
will be automatically be inline'ed. My question is:
If I define a constructor (including its body) or another large member
function inside the class, the constructor or the member function is inline
or not? why?
2. I learned that if the member function is big we should not...

Many websites have a form or a link you can use to download a file.

I’m going to show you how to do that using a perl script.
