Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect, P4)

Description

[Mehdi Rahman]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; 0.8.1) Gecko/20010323
BuildID:    2001032319

The menu show fines when the page is openned. But, if you try to open nodes (for
example "Install guide"), I have a javascript error and the menu appears
completely destroyed (no more icons,...).

The menu works fine in explorer and netscape 4.7.

Error: parent.frames[MTMenuFrame].document.all has no properties
Source File: http://www.treemenu.com/mtmcode.js
Line: 213



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to http://www.treemenu.com/
2. Open the javascript console (to follow error messages)
3. Open the menu item "Install guide"

Actual Results:  I have a javascript error+the menu does not opens correctly: I
have the texts, but not the rest

Expected Results:  The menu should have opened (see in ie/netscape)

Pay attention that the site use lot of frames and the javascript code is not
easily accessible (the frame with the source is hidden).
Here is the offending line:
MTMyval = MTMGetPos(parent.frames[MTMenuFrame].document.all[MTMItemName]);

Offending line is contained in this:
if(document.layers && parent.frames[MTMenuFrame].scrollbars) {    
   MTMyval = parent.frames[MTMenuFrame].document.anchors[MTMItemName].y;
   MTMWinSize = parent.frames[MTMenuFrame].innerHeight;
} else {
   MTMyval = MTMGetPos(parent.frames[MTMenuFrame].document.all[MTMItemName]);
   MTMWinSize = parent.frames[MTMenuFrame].document.body.offsetHeight;
}
