Hi Again!!

I seem to be getting the occasional error with the Milonic menus but not that many. More like 1 in 8 times of usage. The error message I get are ...

--snip--
k$ is not defined
--snip--

So, it look like the mouse-over was used with a mouse too soon while the Milonic's java script files are loading or something. So, is there a way to have it to wait until the loading is done and ready to go??

Thanks,
Scott

Well, hte website is still under development behind the firewall. Won't be coming out for a little while. I just noticed it when I upgraded it and when I start using the delay timer for the popup() function. Hope that help.

Thanks,
Scott

P.S. I'm thinking of removing the delay timer and leave it that way if that help.

I can reproduce the problem without the use of menu delay and I now see what's the problem. I have drop-down menu that have arrows at the right that bring up the submenu. I have no problem if that submenu pop-up immediately but if it doesn't pop-up while hte mouse is mouse-overed the drop-down menu then that's when it start to act funny. Some of the time, the submenu never pop-up and some other it pop-up a few seconds later. Either way, it sometime cause the javascript to throw an error.

I can reproduce this problem after the website is finished loading.... So, what seem to be the problem. Right now I don't have a moment to go back to tech support and file a report because I'm going to have to make an another testcase for that. But you should be able to produce the problem this way. I'm using the popup() function and noticed this problem with Mozilla/Firefox. I don't seem to be able to produce this problem with IE. Hope that help...

Thanks,
Scott

I don't seem to be able to download the older version when logging in. How can I do that? It's not that I want the older version, just that I need a more stable one for demostration this friday in front of my boss and the attorney. Just the one on Dec 22nd when my company bought the license...

Thanks,
SCott
