Help with javascript/drop down menu

[LissaE]

I've added chrome drop down menu to my site and thought it all went swimmingly, did just what it was supposed to do in firefox as well as internet explorer...except now I have hit a peculiar glitch lol

In Internet Explorer the product pages refuse to load, IE aborts it....it works fine *everywhere* else in all browsers except this page....and I am stumped lol soon as I removed the menu code the page loaded

This is my code here:

<div id="menuBack">
<div class="chromestyle" id="chromemenu">
<ul>
<li><a style="border-left: 1px solid #DADADA;" href="http://www.havendesignz.com">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.havendesignz.com/store/" rel="dropmenu1">Shopping</a></li>
<li><a href="#" rel="dropmenu2">Community</a></li>
<li><a href="#" rel="dropmenu3">Blogs/Yahoo Groups</a></li>    
<li><a href="#" rel="dropmenu4">Web Design</a></li>
<li><a href="#" rel="dropmenu5">Advertising</a></li>
<li><a href="#" rel="dropmenu6">PSP/Graphics Stuff</a></li>
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><span style="color:#0E7C9D;">My Cart:</span> 
    <?php echo sizeof($_SESSION['cart']->get_products()); ?>&nbsp;items&nbsp;-
     <?php $header_cart = $currencies->format($_SESSION['cart']->show_total());  
    echo $header_cart;
    ?></a></li>
</ul>
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
cssdropdown.startchrome("chromemenu")
</script>
</div>

The script I used is here: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...rome/index.htm

And Microsoft says this about aborted pages (which was what lead me to remove the menu to see if it caused it lol):

This problem occurs because a child container HTML element contains script that tries to modify the parent container element of the child container. The script tries to modify the parent container element by using either the innerHTML method or the appendChild method.

For example, this problem may occur if a DIV element is a child container in a BODY element, and a SCRIPT block in the DIV element tries to modify the BODY element that is a parent container for the DIV element.

I really don't understand why it only does this on one page type...can anyone help? I have removed the bottom script block from the menu from the store temporarily until I can get it fixed lol

Might be simpler if you look at those available

I thought about that, but I wanted one to go across my whole site, not just the store....I am thinking there might be a conflict with another mod installed, and I'm trying lots of different things from searches as well lol

but I wanted one to go across my whole site, not just the store.

You have your site set to 950px and I do not see the issue you describe????
what is just the store? versus you whole site???

[LissaE]

Yes across the site, I don't mean I wanted it across the entire width, sorry for the confusion lol

You don't see the issue because I have removed the section of code creating it, if no one using IE can load the product pages no sales so until I can fix it I have removed it

To be specific, the aborted load error ONLY happens on the product info pages and ONLY happens in IE, Firefox loads it all just fine and the piece of code that seems to be conflicting is this piece:

<script type="text/javascript">
cssdropdown.startchrome("chromemenu")
</script>

I have had a custom wishlist mod recently installed and am waiting on the developer's reply to see if it's possibly a conflict with the js used for that mod on the product info pages...until then I am stumped, nothing I have tried is working

[LissaE]

Just an update on this...after disabling one thing at a time, I have found that it is Fuel Slimbox that is conflicting, as soon as I disable that addon everything else works....I have the slimbox on other sections of my site and it doesn't cause this to happen so I need to find out what the difference is lol
