Hello,

I am testing the smartmenu as an alternative navigation option on a webpage I am updating. I have a test page up with SmartMenus installed -- However, it doesn't work properly in IE 6.0, 5.5sp1, 5.0. It only works properly Firefox, Opera and Safari.

The link to the test page is: --> http://www.lymanbriggs.msu.edu/index_test.php

Javascript error on line: if(window.event+''=='undefined')event=0
Error: s_[...].0 is null or not an object

Any help would be greatly appreciated...especially since a fair majority of our incoming users visit with an IE based browser.

Thanks in advance,
Andrew

You have used a comma symbol after the last menu item in the definition for the "search" menu. This is incorrect syntax and that's why IE has problems with your setup. Please delete the comma and it should work correctly.

. . .
{Show:'lbslinks',U:'#',T:'LBS Links',S:'LBS Links',SeparatorSize:1},
{Show:'employment',U:'#',T:'Employment',S:'Student Employment',SeparatorSize:1}, // delete this comma
]
);
