I'm getting a Java error in IE6 that says document.getElementById is null or not an object.

I added the code to the headinclude, and uploaded the .js file. I did not make the forumhome changes as i didn't think they would be neccessary for this to work.

Any ideas?

edit: oops, wrong thread. I get this java error when doing your blinking PM code that uses the same .js file. I am also getting a javascript error once ina while here at VBT, so it might be something wrong on my system, though I had another person test it and they got the same error.

only reason you would get an error with this is if you are calling the function chgStyle() without arguments (ie. chgStyle(class,id) is the appropriate function call ) - check all your file edits to confirm that you haven't left out a letter or number somewhere ...

One note for your debugging, does the error happen when you mouseover, or mouseout, or just when you load the page ?

I accidentally posted this to the wrong thread. I haven't editted the mouseovers in this mod, I was installing your other mod that made Gary W welcome bar flash compatible with all browsers, and instead of simply flash, yours makes it trade colors with the breadbox and pmbox.

i have quadruple checked my file edits, and looked at the site in both firefox and IE6, and both give me the same error, line 3 its getting hung up on elementid, saying it has no properties. here is copy/paste from my current install:

here is the error from firefox, its more detailed than the IE error:
Error: document.getElementById("" + elementid + "") has no properties
Source File: http://www.jade-dragon.net/forums/cl...in_chgclass.js
Line: 3

from vbulletin_chgclass.js:

HTML Code:

<!--

function changeSty(classpassed,elementid){

        document.getElementById(""+elementid+"").className=""+classpassed+"";

}

//-->

my entire headinclude template:(just in case something is getting in the way)

HTML Code:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=$stylevar[charset]" />

<meta name="generator" content="vBulletin $versionnumber" />

<meta name="keywords" content="$vboptions[keywords]" />

<meta name="description" content="$vboptions[description]" />



<!-- CSS Stylesheet -->

$style[css]

<if condition="is_browser('opera')">

<style type="text/css">

ul, ol { padding-left:20px; }

</style>

</if>

<!-- / CSS Stylesheet -->

<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

var SESSIONURL = "$session[sessionurl]";

var IMGDIR_MISC = "$stylevar[imgdir_misc]";

// -->

</script>



<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_global.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src=$vboptions[bburl]/clientscript/vbulletin_chgclass.js></script>

the section of navbar effected(whole top part just in case):

HTML Code:

<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['pmunread']"> 

setInterval("Timer()", 1000); 

x=1; 

function Timer() 

{ 

    set=1; 

    if (x==0 && set==1) 

    { 

        changeSty('alt1','pmbox'); 

        changeSty('alt2','breadBox'); 

        x=1; 

        set=0; 

    } 

    if (x==1 && set==1) 

    { 

        changeSty('alt2','pmbox'); 

        changeSty('alt1','breadBox'); 

        x=0; 

        set=0; 

    } 

} 

</if>



function log_out()

{

        ht = document.getElementsByTagName("html");

        ht[0].style.filter = "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(grayscale=1)";

        if (confirm('$vbphrase[sure_you_want_to_log_out]'))

        {

                return true;

        }

        else

        {

                ht[0].style.filter = "";

                return false;

        }

}

//-->

I am running vB 3.0.1

Only thing I can suggest is that you Quote your javascript external call ...

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src=$vboptions[bburl]/clientscript/vbulletin_chgclass.js></script>

Should be

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="$vboptions[bburl]/clientscript/vbulletin_chgclass.js"></script>

for validity purposes - might also cause a breakage somewhere as neither this nor the other script has broken on either Firefox or IE6 or Opera for that matter ...

EDIT: I've updeated the original instructions to include the quotes ... and I'll have to upgrade to 3.0.1 at some stage to see if that breaks mine ...

I tried that as well when tinkering, and I also removed the $vboptions[bburl] just to test as well, since none of the other scripts in that template had it included.

The only major hacks I am using are v3 Arcade and vB Advanced. would either of these possibly be causing the issue?

As I said, I haven't upgraded to 3.0.1 - so I don't know what that breaks.

I'll look into it and get back to ya, OK ?

sounds good. there was a navbar change in 3.0.1, ill try to find out too. I went to your demo site and it looks sharp though, so keep up the good work, and thanks for banging through this with me, I appreciate it.

Ahhhh - the NavBar would have caused this to maybe break - my NavBar is modded very heavily so I maybe wouldn't have noticed it even so (as I'm not that fussed about reverting my templates ;))

I'll look into it ;)

I've upgraded to vB3.0.1 and no probs ...

One more suggestion - change the javascript in vbulletin_chgclass.js to match this (it's one letter different):

HTML Code:

<!--

function changeSty(classpassed,elementid){

        document.getElementsById(""+elementid+"").className=""+classpassed+"";

}

//-->

Let me know how you go - seems to work either way for me ... the functions are translatable in Javascript 1.1 - but like I've said, I've not had problems with the original script - so the only way I can really help more is to take a look @ your board - which I will do ;)

I fixed the prob. I had to add id=pmbox and id=breadbox to the navbar breadcrumb and login tables. i checked some sites and they didn't have these by default either, so I think one of your previous hacks may change the code to this?

on a side note, this is technically not cross browser due tot his, because nutscrape 4.0 doesn't recognize tables as elements, but i dont get why nutscrape 4 is even in the cross browser description. anyone with even an almost up to date browser will have no problems with your code.

thanks for all the help, i didn't apply your most recent change since its working now, but if i have problems when i implement your hovering forums i'll come back and see if that resolves it.

thanks for the great hack and support!
