Dreamweaver MX 2004

mar0364 · August 7th, 2005, 07:53 PM

I'm on page 95 of Begining Dreamweaver MX. The popup menu keeps giving me a error. I even tried the download code and still got the error. Could some one please help?

It keeps giving error.
Line 555
Char 3
menulayer is null or not an object
code 0
url localhost/regions.htm

Regions.htm does not have 555 lines in it. Here is the text from regions.htm

Hi Rich,

This code uses the file mm_menu.js which is necessary for the menu to work.

Did you upload that file to the server? If not right-click the file in the Files panel and choose Put. Then refresh the page and I think the menu will work....

Cheers,

Imar

First thanks for your help. I go home in about an hour and I will make sure all files uploaded then. I will keep you informed via this thread.
Rich.

I did upload the file the first time. So I started looking in other places for the problem.
Is this correct?
The problem appeared to be my security setting in IE. My security setting were to high. I had to ease restrictions to the point where I'm allowing an Active X control to work. Once I changed that setting the popup menu to worked.

Thanks!
