16190 - statmarket.com - Menus on the top of page do not show Pop-Ups

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect, P1)

Description

[moshev]

When going to www.statmarket.com in NS4.7, the left side of the
page pops up menus, using M10, nothing is poped-up.
The html's source shows that there is a check for document.layers property for
NS4 and document.all for IE4.

I am not sure which one is the standard, but i guess that at least one
of these should be supported?

Looking through the JavaScript, I'm pretty sure that this page behaves as
intended.

However, I'm QA Assigning it to Prashant who would know for sure.

Changing component to DOM Level 0 and assigning to [e-mail] in case
he wants to contact the site authors (if this is still relevant).  My
understanding is that neither document.all nor document.layers will be
supported.

INVALID. LAYER, ILAYER, document.layers[] not supported in Gecko/Nav5. Closed.
Notified reporter and site owner via template at
http://sites.netscape.net/ekrock/fixit/layer.html
In the future, if possible, please INVALID, notify, and close such bugs directly
using that template without assigning to me. Thanks!

Invalid verified.

Moving all [LAYER] bugs to Evangelism component for tracking and open-source
evangelism by mozilla community members of sites that need to upgrade to support 
web standards such as HTML 4.0 (instead of LAYER/ILAYER) and the W3C DOM
(instead of Nav4 document.layers[] or IE document.all()). Sites should be
lobbied to do the upgrade using the email templates that are linked to from
http://www.mozilla.org/newlayout/bugathon.html#layerbugs . When a site's owner
has confirmed receipt of the message requesting an upgrade, the bug should be
marked with the keyword evangelized to indicate that evangelism for that bug is
complete. When the site finishes the upgrade and supports standards, the bug
should be closed.

Reassigning Evangelism bugs to me, the component's new owner.  I would like to 
take this opportunity to thank [e-mail] for all of his dedication, 
contributions, and hard work, and wish him luck at his new job.  Thanks, nobody.

[Zach Lipton [:zach]]

Removing the evangwanted keyword from 49 evangilizm bugs that also 
have the evangelized keyword. Having both of these keywords on a bug 
makes it really hard to do a query for all open evangilizm bugs that are 
evangwanted. Sorry for the spam.

[Zach Lipton [:zach]]

Sorry about this problem. I somehow screwed up the keyword changes.

These menus still do not work (although they have now moved from the left hand
side to the right hand side).

Further, some or all of their graphs do not work and need to be made compatable
with Mozilla.

Finally, their stats are all wrong (much as I would like Netscape to have 30% of
the browser market, it just ain't true anymore).

[Christopher Aillon (sabbatical, not receiving bugmail)]

I just recieved a weekly newsletter that goes out to 30 000 people (according to
their estimates) with a link to statmarket.  Seems to be a relatively big site,
especially since it's owned by hitbox.  Anyway, on further inspection of the code:

On line ~692 of the current code of http://www.statmarket.com/ we have the
following:

if (isMenu) {
document.write("<SCRIPT LANGUAGE='JavaScript1.2'
SRC='http://hitbox.com/includes/sM.js'><\/SCRIPT>");
}

Following that link takes you to hierMenus.js but renamed.  The version in that
file says 3.0.8.  Adding to hiermenu tracker.  Since this site is owned by
hitbox, but a different domain I'm adding dependency on the hitbox.com bug.

They seem to have removed the dhtml menus, but have a iframe with a ticker which
doesn't work with us.
