How to fix error: 'Menu' is undefined???

WebDeb · #1 (**permalink**) 01-04-06, 11:13 AM

Jump Menu (Dreamweaver MX2004) misbehaving when page called in IE 5.2 (for Mac), but runs OK in Safari. IE Error message: 'Menu' is undefined.

Have tried tinkering with script but nothing seems to work. I'm an amateur at JS so need your help.

BTW, error message just started showing up several weeks ago. Everything was fine until then.

URL: www.tngcanada.org (Jump Menu is in left nav .... Union Savings Program).

Any help most appreciated! :-)

It worked fine for me. Take a look at this:

<map name="Header Menu">

Maybe don't have any space in the name. That's about all I can think of.

Thanks King. I went in and closed up spaces in a few places. The Error message now is that an Object is expected.

Like which specific line of code is it saying that an object is expected?

I put things back to the way they were originally, so now I'm back to the 'Menu' is undefined message. Says it's Line: 154 Char: 8

It highlights this line in the code:

window.mm_menu_1107175835_0 = new Menu("root",155,15,"Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif",9,"#99CCFF","#CC0000","#000066","#FFFFFF"," left","middle",3,0,1000,-5,7,true,false,true,2,true,true);

I have also compared all of the code with an identical menu I'm running at yourmedia.ca/index-new.shtml and cannot see any difference. The menus at Your Media work just fine and I don't get any Error messages.

Help!

Through trial and error, plus comparing French side of site (where script works OK) with English side, realized that I had to add some directories ahead of the mm_menu.js.

As in:

<script language="JavaScript" src="/EN/menu/mm_menu.js"></script>

Sorry for a late reply. So you have it fixed now? I was getting ready to say that somewhere you need to define exactly what a menu really is, but I wouldn't have known the directory tree was slightly wrong.
