20825 - eddiebauer.com - [LAYER] menu roll-overs not functioning

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

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

Description

[jason]

Running Redhat 6.0 with kernel 2.2.13 using Moz M11.

1. Go to http://www.eddiebauer.com/
2. On index page, put mouse pointer over the 'Women's' button.
3. Nothing happens.

On Netscape 4.7, putting the mouse pointer over the 'Women's' button will cuase
a sub-menu to be displayed containing items such as 'Outerwear', 'Sweaters', and
'Shirts', etc.

Very repeatable, very consistent.

Reassigning to DOM component.

Comment 2

[troy]

Looks like it is using LAYER tag to do the roll-over

Comment 3

[ekrock's old account (dead)]

Yup. Page optimizes for IE4/5 and Nav4 but not Nav5/W3C DOM.

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!

[ekrock's old account (dead)]

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.

Marking bug evangelized and clearing cc:s as courtesy to reduce spam.

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.

Comment 9

[Blake Ross]

-> [e-mail] for my evangelism bugs.

removing the now-depreciated evangelism-related keywords.

setting platform to All.

Comment 10

[Blake Ross]

Reassigning evangelism bugs to [e-mail].

Comment 11

[Bob Clary [:bc] (inactive)]

I no longer see layer related errors in the JavaScript console, but the pull
down menus on the page do not work in Mozilla/Netscape 6.  Contacted via
webmaster letter to [e-mail] and via web form at
http://www.eddiebauer.com/eb/custserv/ae_email.asp?NOTE=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eeddiebauer%2Ecom%2Feb%2Fcustserv%2Feb%5Fsitedirectory%2Easp

All Evangelism Bugs are now in the Product Tech Evangelism. See bug 86997 for
details.

Comment 13

[Bob Clary [:bc] (inactive)]

follow up with these sites by 0.9.5

Comment 14

[R.K.Aa.]

The button doesnt display layers on Mozilla because Mozilla doesn't support it.
Clicking the button works fine, and presents a new page with menus - the same as
are visible in a dropdown on NS4. Is this bug about having the author NOT
support layers for users with Netscape 4* browsers? There is no loss of
functionality, content or layout flaws. There are no error messages. Why does
this bug have severity critical?

Comment 15

[Bob Clary [:bc] (inactive)]

the critical was set back in Oct 2000. We do not really use severity in
Evangelism bugs, so it is not an issue. setting to minor

Comment 16

[Bob Clary [:bc] (inactive)]

-> 0.9.6, need to follow up on these asap

Comment 17

browser_functions.js 
   detects Mozilla/NS6, set var br = "N5".

dropdown_functions.js 

only has forks for NN4/IE

also has functions with proprietary IE only API calls. Could have been written
using a DOM Compliant branch

// hides specified tag

function hideElement(HTMLtag)
{
	for (i = 0; i < document.all.tags(HTMLtag).length; i++)
	{
		obj = document.all.tags(HTMLtag)[i];
		obj.style.visibility = "hidden";
	}
}

// shows specified tag

function showElement(HTMLtag)
{
	for (i = 1; i < document.all.tags(HTMLtag).length; i++)
	{
		obj = document.all.tags(HTMLtag)[i];
		obj.style.visibility = "visible";
	}
}

http://www.eddiebauer.com/js/eb_stylesheets.js contains a fork which servers up
a separate stylesheet to NN4/Mozilla/NS6 and a another to IE.

http://www.eddiebauer.com/js/eb_layers.js contains only code forks for NN4 and IE.

http://www.eddiebauer.com/js/eb_search.js contains only code forks for NN4 and IE. 

var siteSRC = "eb";
var top = "140";
var left = "584";
if (br=="N") {
	document.write('<script language="JavaScript"
src="/js/search_n4_display.js"></script>');
}
else if (br=="IE") {
	document.write('<script language="JavaScript"
src="/js/search_ie_display.js"></script>');
}

contacted again via web form. Recheck in December. 

Comment 21

[Doron Rosenberg (IBM)]

I have this working. however, they rely on an imagemap, so onmouseout is called
too early (bug 120387)

Comment 22

[Kai Lahmann (is there, where MNG is)]

dropdown works.
search gives a JS error, but still works.
doron: where's the imagemap?

Comment 23

[Susie Wyshak]

marking fixed; Bob see bugscape if there are ever issues again.

Comment 24

[Zach Lipton [:zach]]

reopening, this doesn't work for me with a mach-o build from the other day
(works in IE).

Comment 25

[Susie Wyshak]

Verified drop down menus are not working.
