Problem with fireworks pull down menu

[sharkbiteart]

Here is my site:

http://www.sharkbite.ca/clienttempsites/wclh/

The pull down menu on the index page works like it should.

On subsequent pages I added a lightbox popout feature on the slideshows.

Now the pull down menu "jams" after the first rollover - the links still work.

There probably are other codeing issues - I'm no expert - but if anyone has a quick fix for me I would be eternally grateful!

Thanks,
Paul

You need to use a Javascript error console on your browser. There seem to be several errors and LOTS of warnings generated in your javascript

Thanks, I had a feeling there would be some work to do, do you have a suggestion as to where to start? (Javascript error console on your browser?)

OK, I guess that was a silly question. I also found this

Is something like that a good idea?

Use Firefox - see

Hi,
I am having trouble figuring this out. I created a test site with only the index file at:

http://www.sharkbite.ca/clienttempsites/test/wclh-test/

I have tried using the Firefox Java script Console but I still cannot get it. If you could have a look and see what you can do would be GREAT!
Thanks.

Since your dropdown only appears on the very first rollover, and the error console gives an error at each rollover after that, it looks like your variables may be scoped incorrectly. Since this appears to be a Javascript problem rather than a DW problem I suggest you first track down your specific problem and then ask in forum216

Thanks, I will do that.

OK, so nobody at that forum is answering my question, perhaps I can get a little more help here.
It looks like the error is in the line


m.style.visibility = "hidden";


in this bit of code
}
if( mmOpenMenus ) {
for(var i in mmOpenMenus) {
var m = document.getElementById(mmOpenMenus);
m.style.visibility = "hidden";
}
mmOpenMenus = null;
}

does that help?
