Hello
when I open my intranet page in IE I see an '!' down left in my browser that says it is wrong on page. When I click that icon, I got up a pop up window:

Line: 17
Char: 1768
Error: Excpected an object
Code: 0
Url: <my intranet-url>

Here is my menu_data.js

Can someone help ?

Probed your directory structure and found no milonic_src, no mmenudom.js and no mmenuns4.js files. Those are VERY important support files for the menu. The error you are getting is a common one that gets generated when the menu_data file can't find them.

Hi

I am using Milonic in my intranet, it cant be reached from internet. I am placing this file on a domain who is not using java.

I have debuged the error, se these files:

milonic.txt
Here it seems that the license is un-licensed, but that is not correct. I have a license.

error2.gif

It seems to me that the error is in the file: milonic_src.js

How about getting a fresh download of the JS files and dropping them in?

Whenever I have a problem of the menu not appearing I backup my data file and put the original one back.

I also have a folder of backed up data files so if I screw up, I always have a backup to work from.

Which browser are you using?

Although we can't reproduce this error we think RC15 might fix it.

Once we are on top of things, we'll post an update.

Could be as late as wednesday though, got a lot of catching up to do

Cheers

Why do you think you are not licensed if you also say you are?

Hi

I have sent you a private mail with my license info, hope it will help

Unfortunately it won't, as I'm in Phoenix and Milonic is in the UK. Further, none of the support folks here work for Milonic.

But my original question still holds.

I ordered one Professional DHTML Menu Licence at 22.99 GBP at september 18. I got an email from sales __at__ milonic.com the same date with my license number. I think I have a valid license, or have I missed something?

If you have a license number then the domain name that it is registered for is now licensed.

First, thank you very much for your support of the system!

Is the forced Milonic link still in the code you now download? If not, you're in the database and properly registered.

I have a domain named 'rype.no' where I test things before I copies them to a production domain named 'hhf.no'. The license I ordered was for the domain rype.no. I have ordered a new Professional DHTML Menu Licence for the domain hhf.no, but I get the same error. I use the menu in the subdomain intra.hhf.no

The forced Milonic link is not in the code.

Then I guess you've really lost me. I don't understand what 'error' you're getting. If the forced link is not in the code, which is the only difference between registered (not free) and un-registered, then you're getting the proper code-set.

Ok, you're registered and you are getting the registered version (without Milonic link), great. YOu download RC15? Its out now.

So lets recap, you've re-downloaded all the files, saved the original milonic_src, mmenudom, mmenuns4, and menu_data files into a directory and tried using them in a page and you still get the error? The error still sounds like it can't find the source codes. If I screw up my pages on purpose I get almost the exact error, like it cannot find a function definition.

Can you post your actual html page source (at least the part that includes the menu javascript files) please? What version of your mmenudom and mmenuns4 files are you using?

Hi

try these url: http://www.hhf.no/test.htm

I have unpacked the zip-files (including milonic_src, mmenudom, mmenuns4 and menu_data) to a directory called javascripts. I have edited menu_data.js.

You can see the js-files here:
menu_data.js
milonic_src.js
mmenudom.js
mmenuns4.js

I am using Version 5.0 Release Candidate 15.0

Have replaced Un-licensed with my license-code in the js-files

I see a menu system, complete with subs, and sub-subs!

I have sub menus, yes, but is there a problem with it?

Is the problem relatetd to menu_data.js or to milonic_src.js?

I really have to fix this because the menu is on my companys intranet and 1800 people are using it.

Trying to get to the http://www.hhf.no/test.htm link you posted results in "Cannot find server or DNS Error".

In your page you are bringing in Milonic_src.js, then menu_data.js and then the mmenudom and the mmenuns4. This is not the correct order. You need to bring them in this order.

1. milonic_src.js
2. mmenudom.js
3. mmenuns4.js
4. menu_data.js
5. then delcare any menus you need to in the code of your page too
6. drawMenus();

This may take care of the problem. Fix this and we'll work from there.

The info Dave posted is all in the docs contained in the download, in particular install.txt. There you will find, "The order in which the tags appear IS important, and must be as shown above."

We did include them for a reason...

check your status bar (assumes ie) and you'll notice a js error as well

It also assumes you can get to the page, which, as posted yesterday, I could not.

Anyway...

1. Your JS calls are still out of order, specifically menu_data.js. Read install.txt.

2. If that alone does not fix the problem, also do the following...

2a. Remove ALL the script data from the <td> and put it back in menu_data.js.

2b. Place ONLY the JS call to menu_data.js in the <td> where the script is now.

apologies, I was responding to the last post on page 1 of this thread. Id that entirely too often on phpBBs, I frequent a UBB where a single page has gone up to 80 posts or so, it's created assumptions, I need to retrain myself =)

No problem. If a post is not right in line with the original it's usually a good idea to use the Quote feature.

Hergio and Jgillett

Thanks !!

And I want to apologies, it was my fault. When I put 'menu_data.js' as the last line, all is ok, no more errors.

I have to read the install text better next time.

Thanks again for your help guys!

You're welcome. Just glad you got it running.

BTW, apology not necessary (but thanks). We'll just tuck it away in case it's needed later...
