Js download text file not working ie

Quote: But add that bolded bit and see if that does anything for IE7. I added it in and it made the drop down menu work in IE7, without disturbing it working in other browsers.

So thanks for this. Now, I checked in IE6, but still no dice. Should I post it on the web then? Would that help for solving the problem for IE6? The only thing we are sure of, is that for some reason, when you reference the suckerfish hover script externally instead of posting it in the directly like they do at HTMLdog, it's not loading or it's possibly loading but before the page is ready.

I don't know enough about JS to know which problem it is. If you are removing the suckerfish stuff out of the head because it's a Good Idea to keep scripts and HTML separate, you may need to do what I did: use the whateverhover. It sits in either the root directory of your server, or if you have multiple folders with multiple websites, in the folder of the website I have it in the folders so most of my sites don't have it but a few do. It's bascially also a Javascript, one that's only seen and read by IE6, with a major difference: it allows IE6 to hover over lots of stuff, and you don't need to add in an extra class in your CSS.

If you care more about wanting to know why your script isn't loading when external, you may need to either check out a Javascript forum or see if one of the crusties here knows further.

But I still think Gary is onto something: external scripts need to be explicitly told to load I think , and the Suckerfish version doesn't have that because they wrote it to sit in the HTML itself.

If you can post the page online so Gary or Hugo or something can play with it, that would of course help. They can then play with it and see what the script is actually doing I think. As I look over the script, I see the onload event handler is in the script. IMO, dropdown menus are a poor way of delivering information, so I seldom use them, and have to relearn all the steps each time.

That leaves the path. Quote: use the whateverhover. I've used csshover. I still have the file. I can put it in the. But would rather try to do it without using. Maybe learn something by doing it the other way. Quote: As I look over the script, I see the onload event handler is in the script. Yah, I eyed the last line of the code and played around with it.

The file is in my MMoD folder on my C drive, with no subfolders. So both the. Quote: If the path is correct, then it will help us to see a live example, thus the request for a link.

I'm planning to experiment with IntenseDebate commenting section anyhow, so I'll put it on web now. Well, the free site I plan on posting it on has a bit of a problem at the moment, so I'll post the link sometime today.

Until then, if any new ideas come to light, I'd appreciate them. I switched hosting sites. I have my home page displayed now. The Blogroll button at upper-right when cursored over shows links for every browser tested except IE6. Could you continue assisting me in figuring out how to correct this problem. Just so you're aware, the code used on the posted pages are using csshover3. I removed behavior:url csshover3.

Straight from the Suckerfish site: "So instead of display: none we use left: em to propel the dropdown list out of view and then left: auto rather than left: to bring it back" As far as why " nav li:hover ul" is repeated, I just copied and pasted from the Suckerfish site what it said to copy and paste.

Did you try left:0; rather Did you try left:0; rather than :auto;? Thinking about it perhaps I Thinking about it perhaps I harken back to some distant memory, a time when we had to try and get this to working in a non standards switching quirks mode browser IE5.
