Line 42 - mmenu.js error invalid arguement

Hi guys,
I`m having a bit of trouble, have any of you guys had any problems or experienced this:

Select a link ie menu.asp from dynamic menu.
The page refreshes, the link is activated and has changed colour to yellow from white.
When I mouseover the link I have no problem however; on mouseout of the active link I get line 42 error: invalid arguement.

Code:

function popdn(){arg=popdn.arguments;if(arg[0]){if(arg[3].substr(0,5)!="show-"){if(ns4){shl(arg[2],arg[1],"hide")}else{arg[0].style.background=arg[4];arg[0].style.color=arg[5]}}else{if(ns4)omv=0;hlarr[hlcnt]=arg[2]+"_"+arg[1]+"_"+arg[4]+"_"+arg[5];hlcnt++;}menu=eval(arg[2]);if(!menu[12]){Mtimer=setTimeout("closeallmenus();",timegap);}}else{Mtimer=setTimeout("closeallmenus()",timegap);}}

Any help would be much appreciated

thnx guys

I've had this problem once, but this was because the ASP page didn't load on my local IIS ..... after transfering it to the server, it worked again.

Hope this is helpful

It could be a dodgy mouseoff color in your menu_array.js file

Cheers

I don`t think its anything with my colours?

Code:

style1=[         
"white",         
"transparent",      
"#D60F05",         
"transparent",      
,               
12,               
"normal",         
"bold",            
"Arial",         
4,               
,               
,               
,               
,               
"yellow",         
,               
,               
,               
,

Try this instead

Code:

The hash in your code will cause a problem. Also, transparent as a color in some browsers (if I remember correctly) will cuase trouble too.

Hold on !!

The lack of border color could also cause problems.

Try this if the above doesnt work

Code:

nope.

I've just tested the style and it works fine.

So, It must be something else. Send over your menu array with the problem menu and I'll take a look

Cheers
Andy

Fixed.

Simple fix by Andy :-

"A parameter was missing.

Where you have "yellow" as the Current item foreground color you need to add a background color too. Add "" tested and works." :idea:

Thnx for your help Andy
