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!

pop up contents on main page too, why
Zone: JavaScript
Tags: Javascript, internet explorer 7
Hi I have a site with 5 images linked to a pop-up and centre code, when click they give a quick overview of contents of that section of the site.

Works fine in IE4,5,6 but not 7, works in FF and NS on windows 98,2000,xp and vista's.

In IE7 the pop-up comes up and centres itself, loads its html page but then loads the html page into the main window too, really getting on my nerves now, any clues why here are two metheds I am using.

Also the staus message on method two works offline but not online, online just states the url of the href?

I copied your code into a text file called test.html, and they appear to be working as you describe. I am using IE7. Do you get the same problem if you tested only the code you provided?
 
05.06.2008 at 01:21PM PDT, ID: 21510700
yes but the owner of the site has not complained so maybe it is a setting on my machine.

in firefox the pop-up appears and the main page is fine but only in IE7 the popup appears and the main page also changes to the contents of the pop-up, this is a little odd now, lol....

That will happen if the script errors out before the return false.

Try this and move the focus to the star.html's body tag

have you tried this on IE7, as far as I can see you can not use onload focus in the body tag nor in Javascript so that won't work, I am starting to think that the whole problem that I have is microsoft once again, they never seem to get it right do they, how secure do you need to be to not allow a page to pop-up can centre without writing to the main page too? just dumb, maybe bill gates would like to sort my clients site out for them after all FF works, why not bundle FF into windows if they can't write a decent browser.

anyway, if I am wrong and it is not IE7 at fault I am now at a loss with this problem.
 
05.08.2008 at 02:18PM PDT, ID: 21528565
ok this is an IE7 thing and can't be sorted, MS rules I guess,

Anyone else got this problem, I used the following site as a work around using DIV tags, tricky js file to play with but works a treat.
