The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Why is Microsoft so stupid?

Asked by robinz in JavaScript

Tags: , , ,

My site uses one javascript function which causes two things to happen:  
1) an image is animated
2) a link is displayed in a different frame

The problem is with #1.  It works with Netscape, and I think it's ok with IE4.  But with IE3.x it gives me the following error:

In frame: right
[Line: 4] 'images' is not an object

My code is called from frame "right", so that makes sense. Here is the code:

function animate()      {      document.images[1].src='images/alever.gif'; parent.frames[1].location.href='http://www.irz.com/robin/bandnameprogram/bandname.pl'      }

If I take out the first half of the function, the link displays just fine in the correct frame.  I don't know, is "document.images[x]" not a valid statement in IE?  OH YES, I think that it causes problems in some AOL browsers too.

Please help, cause the site is getting a lot of hits, and hence a lot of complaints.  Check it out:
