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!

cross browser errors

Asked by substand in JavaScript

ok, I'm short on time and don't have an AOL browser, so I'm offering mega points to someone who can figure this out.  I'm willing to add more points if the solution is given to me soon, but I'm starting out at 500:

I have a search feature where a user will select a make of a car, and the models of that make then appear in another drop down select.

You can see it at http://www.xorbex.com/oregonauto

the search is in the top left, and another is in the "add a listing" and "edit listing" and another is in the "advanced search"... all use basically the same code.  

It works fine in IE (as things tend to do) but does not work in AOL's browser.  I read on webmaster.info.aol.com that AOL browser uses Gecko, the same as Mozilla and Netscape.  

I haven't tested in netscape, but I did download mozilla and try it.

And of course, it doesn't work.  There are no errors given that I can see either.  It just doesn't work, and doesn't throw an error.

The other problem is this:

The AOL users and Mozilla are getting different errors.

AOL doesn't show the page, instead it shows (from what they tell me):
ndex=0; var i; index=document.topform.make.selectedIndex; makemodels = new Array( new Array("2.5 TL","3.2 CL","3.2 TL","CL","Integra","Legend","MDX","NSX","RL","RSX","SLX","TL","Vigor"), new Array("164","GT","Milano","Quadrifoglio","Spider","Veloce"), new Array(""), new Array("DB7","V12 Vanquish","Vantage","Virage","Volante"), new Array("100","200","5000","80","90","A4","A4 Avant","A6","A6 Wagon","A8","Cabriolet","GT","Other","Quattro","RS6","S4","S6","S6 Avant","S8","TT","V8"), new Array("Arnage","Azure","Continental R","Turbo R"), new Array("3-Series","3-Series Sport Wagon","5-Series","5-Series Sport Wagon","6-Series","7-Series","8-Series","F 650","L7","L-Series","M Coupe","M Roadster","M3","M5","M6","M-Series","Other","X5","Z3","Z8"), new Array(), new Array("Century","Electra","Grand National","Grand Sport","LeSabre","Park Avenue","Park Avenue Ultra","Reatta","Regal","Rendezvous","Riviera","Roadmaster","Skyhawk","Skylark","Somerset Regal","Special","Wildcat"), new Array("Allante","Brougham","Catera","Concours","CTS","D\'Elegance","DeVille","Eldorado","Escalade EXT","Fleetwood","SeVille","Sixty Special"), new Array("Astro Cargo Van","Astro Passenger Van","Avalanche","Bel Air","Beretta","Blazer","Blazer LS","Blazer Xtreme","Blazer ZR2","C/K 10","C/K 1500","C/K 20","C/K 2500","C/K 3500","C/K Crew Cab","C/K Pickup","C10","Camaro","Caprice","Caprice Classic","Cavalier","Cavalier Z 24","Celebrity","Chevelle","Chevette","Corsica","Corvair.......

Thats only part of it, but as you can tell, it is my javascript.

The mozilla browser renders the page just fine, the switching just doesn't work.

Thanks for your help.
