90609 - ewaterways.com - mousing over javascript dynamic menu fails

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

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

Description

[Jeff Shultz]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.4.3-20mdk i686; en-US; 0.8) Gecko/20010409
BuildID:    200104091 2001062815

On the referenced page, the "Travel Agents" tab has a javascript menu that
appears when you mouse over it. Under IE, it works. Under Netscape 4.7x, it
works, under Opera 5.0, it works (mostly). Under Mozilla, both on my Linux box
(2001040912) and my Windows 2k box (2001062815), it doesn't work. Doesn't even
show up.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Go to page, mouse over Travel Agents tab. 

Actual Results:  Nothing.

Expected Results:  Menu, with choice "Affiliate" as top choice should have
appeared. 

I'm not sure I'd class it as "Major" but I'd put it a step above Normal, since
Javascript is a fairly major feature. I don't know Javascript, so I couldn't
tell you exactly what command is broken.

[basic]

Sending to evangelism, there is a javascript error on the page:
on line 169

nction MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0

should be 

function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0

and another thing, I'm not sure why but the document.getElementById() doesn't
seem to be working? that code doesn't work in opera and mozilla. The only time
it works in opera is when opera is set to spoof IE5.0, as opera supports
document.all when it spoof IE5.0 (which btw is not a w3c standard, and will not
be supported by mozilla)
