New code release killed my popUp via image map

New code release killed my popUp via image map.
MOUSE OVER the star's points... you should get text popping up.
Curious if the new parameter, "ignoreCollisions" can help?
Working v5.33: http://cubefree.com/clients/star/dev/star/star.php
New release v5.36 not:
http://site230.webhost4life.com/star/star/star.php
Actual menus (pertinent to this problem): http://cubefree.com/clients/star/dev/menu/popup_points.js
Javascript popUP code:
Code:
<script language="JavaScript">
// set clock variable for star points
Clock_popUpRTC = null
Clock_popUpAP = null
Clock_popUpAF = null
Clock_popUpTNS = null
Clock_popUpSL = null
function delayedPopup(_menu) {
args = arguments;
_delay = 450;
_newPopup="popup('"+args[0]+"')";
if(_menu='popUpRTC') { Clock_popUpRTC = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu='popUpAP') { Clock_popUpAP = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu='popUpAF') { Clock_popUpAF = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu='popUpTNS') { Clock_popUpTNS = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu='popUpSL') { Clock_popUpSL = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
}
function stopPopup(_menu) {
if(_menu='popUpRTC') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpRTC) }

Seems like it's downloading the info (based on activity in the status bar), just not displaying it.
No help, I know, but JS is out of my realm. Andy will have to take a look.

V5.37 did NOT make a difference either...
Curious if the new parameter, "ignoreCollisions" can help?
Anyone seen how this is used yet?

This is so wierd, your code should never have worked before because your comparison operators were wrong.
Here is the list of JavaScript Comparison Operators for future reference, this is the same as the C programming language:
- == Equals
!= Does not equal> is greater than
>= is greater than or equal to
< is less than
<= is less than or equal to
Once you change your code the popups appear again, here is the code at fault - Note that I've changed the = to == to make it work:
Code:
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript>
// set clock variable for star points
Clock_popUpRTC = null
Clock_popUpAP = null
Clock_popUpAF = null
Clock_popUpTNS = null
Clock_popUpSL = null
function delayedPopup(_menu) {
args = arguments;
_delay = 450;
_newPopup="popup('"+args[0]+"')";
if(_menu=='popUpRTC') { Clock_popUpRTC = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu=='popUpAP') { Clock_popUpAP = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu=='popUpAF') { Clock_popUpAF = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu=='popUpTNS') { Clock_popUpTNS = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu=='popUpSL') { Clock_popUpSL = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
}
function stopPopup(_menu) {
if(_menu=='popUpRTC') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpRTC) }
if(_menu=='popUpAP') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpAP) }
if(_menu=='popUpAF') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpAF) }
if(_menu=='popUpTNS') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpTNS) }
if(_menu=='popUpSL') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpSL) }
}
</SCRIPT>
// set clock variable for star points
Clock_popUpRTC = null
Clock_popUpAP = null
Clock_popUpAF = null
Clock_popUpTNS = null
Clock_popUpSL = null
function delayedPopup(_menu) {
args = arguments;
_delay = 450;
_newPopup="popup('"+args[0]+"')";
if(_menu=='popUpRTC') { Clock_popUpRTC = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu=='popUpAP') { Clock_popUpAP = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu=='popUpAF') { Clock_popUpAF = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu=='popUpTNS') { Clock_popUpTNS = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
if(_menu=='popUpSL') { Clock_popUpSL = setTimeout(_newPopup,_delay) }
}
function stopPopup(_menu) {
if(_menu=='popUpRTC') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpRTC) }
if(_menu=='popUpAP') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpAP) }
if(_menu=='popUpAF') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpAF) }
if(_menu=='popUpTNS') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpTNS) }
if(_menu=='popUpSL') { clearTimeout(Clock_popUpSL) }
}
</SCRIPT>
Hope this helps

One issue though I have noticed for Mozilla 1.6, is it does not reinitialize setTimeout() a second time.
So, if you go to: http://www.cubefree.com/clients/star/dev/star/star.php, you can go around the points of the STAR image once and get a popUp menu, but once it's executed it does NOT allow setTimeout to work again.
Weird... maybe this is a memory leak??
