I am working on a menu for a personal website but cannot seem to get it to work fully.
My js knowledge is limited and i am not able to figure out where the error is.
The main idea can be seen at my site: (beware of ad-popups my isp also adds some code to my html, very annoying)
http://perso.wanadoo.es/rb
when clicking on the IT & Computers link a submenu appears and the appropriate links will appear when hovering over it. It works well on this page.
The problem arrises when i tried to make multiple <div> entries appear when clicking the link as can be seen on the next page:
http://perso.wanadoo.es/rb
the submenu appears but the links when hovering create an error, i suspect in main.js.
Error message in IE6:
Line: 185
Char: 2
Error: 'null' is null or not an object
Code: 0
the main.js code was not written by me and i do not have the skill to check it for this error. Any suggestions appreciated.
TYI.
PS. i can mail the full code of the main.js if it helps

thanks for the reply,
but i think i found the error, it was in the html where i did not close the <DIV> at the right place (doh). It is now working, as you can see in the links above except for some reformatting in the css that needs to be done in order to make it readible :)
Thanks for the time though.

var parent;
try
{
parent = document.getElementById(pa
}
catch(e)
{
return;
}
var current = parent.getAttribute("curre
if (id == current) return; // <- This is 185 BUT does NOT mean it is it could be one line above or below it where the problem is
mnpKillMenu(current);
if (id)
parent.setAttribute("curre
1 - Do not use parent for a variable it i think is a reserved word
change parent to something different and then test
2 - if that does not work make sure your passing all the required variables correctly
I do not have time right now to fully run and test your code, but if these do not work i will test
in the morning
