I've had a number of probalems with my dropdown menu, iv'e fixed many of them but i keep gettin one error after another, if anyone can help me with this, i'll be extremely greatful, because this is driving me crazy. I need the links of my drop down menu to open in my targeted iframe named "I1" i will include my script and if anyone can decipher my problem let me know because anytime i click my links to open them, they won't open at all i just get an unknown javascript error saying "Object expected" "Code: 0"
if i shift click to open the link into a new window insted of even trying to open it in an iframe it directs the adress to this "javascript:openIFrame("I1","http://www.allwoodins.com/auto")" and i get a 404.
------------------Here's a sample of the Script------------------------

,"Home","http://www.dynamicdrive.com",,"Back to the home page",1 // "Description Text", "URL", "Alternate URL", "Status", "Separator Bar"
,"News ","show-menu=news",,"",1
,"OnlineQuotes ","show-menu=OnlineQuotes",,"",1
,"Office ","show-menu=Office",,"",1
,"Search ","show-menu=search",,"",1
,"Other ","show-menu=other",,"",1

I hope you have already fixed your issues, but if not - I found that all menu names and target names MUST be all lowercase and have no spaces in them. The mmenu.js uses a lowercase function that can seriously disable your uppercase naming convention.
