demo contextmenu line 174 char 2 syntax error
Poster: EdwardCroft
Dated: Saturday April 22 2006 - 14:25:13 BST
Recently I have downloaded your right click context menu demo page, but I can’t get it to work on my machine. However it works fine when I try it on your website.
I have searched topics and have noticed that ie6 sp2 is a bit of an issue and that is the browser I am using. I have tried putting a menu in that is always active as suggested in another post and putting it in the shared folder and accessing from my network places (to stop windows from blocking javascript) I don’t have access to a web server at present I am only making a ‘what could be possible’ presentation.
The error I am getting as described in subject is;
Line 174
Char 2
Error syntax error
Code 0
Ulr file//c:\pathtofile\index.htm
Please help.

Hi
I´m using the "right click" context menu, cannot confirm any error, using IE and FF and got it to work, taking it from the demo page.
I´m sorry your description of an error is not sufficient to provide any help. What is needed is the entire pages code and of course - the js files.

Hi,
Are you talking about the Dynamic Right-Click Context Demo?
Make sure the milonic menu files are up to date, that they are in the same folder, unless you changed the calls. And, also make sure you have downloaded the newest contextmenu.js module and have that in the folder also.

Hello again and thanks for replies.
Ok the demo was from http://www.milonic.com/menusample27.php (not sure if its dynamic) and all I did was download the sample, so all the code is exactly the same.
I did download the contextmenu.js from the original page and put it in the folder that contains all other pages and js files, inside it reads:
Milonic DHTML Menu Context/Right Click Menu Module contextmenu.js version 1.2 - September 1st 2004
if this is the newest I don’t know. If it isn’t where is the newest?
I will try it on my brothers computer…. Same problem.
I even tried to host it on msn

Hi
the demo doesn´t work it seems. Downloaded, unzipped and run the indexfile - and did not work !! Don´t have the time to investigate the code, it seems it is the menu_data.js...

I took this from the menusample27 page where the menu is working. I think there's something wrong in the download sample menu_data.js file.
Save the above as test_data.js and put it where you have the other files for this and call it instead of the menu_data.js file and see if it works. If it does just use that instead of the downloaded menu_data.js file.
I'll report the problem to Andy.
