Error on page

[johnsimpson]

Hi guys,

My client tells me she is getting an error on one of the sites i built

http://www.rareit.com/about.asp

but am not getting any error notifications on my browser.

It is saying error on line 24

In the source code it is showing this code which is not in my actual source code...

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--

function SymError()
{
return true;
}

window.onerror = SymError;

var SymRealWinOpen = window.open;

function SymWinOpen(url, name, attributes)
{
return (new Object());
}

window.open = SymWinOpen;

//-->
</script>

Can someone have a quick look and see if you get any errors? And possible solutions?

Thanks
John

The problem is this function in "banner_change.js":

function showFooterImage(){
   var myObj = document.getElementById('shadow-bottom');
   myObj.style.backgroundImage = "url('"+theImages[whichImage].bottom+"')";
}

There is no element on the page with an id of "shadow-bottom", so the second line bombs out. There is an element with a class of "shadow-bottom", but that's not the same as an ID.

Hope this helps,
Dan

Hi,

I have amended it now to be a class instead of an id in the main code (not changed the js)

But im still getting the code i gave before? is the error still there?

Thanks for the help already, appreciate it.

The above source looks like part of Symantec or Norton internet security applications. Try asking your client to disable this and try again.

??

changing it to a class is not what you want to do. as BRPS pointed out, the getElementById function returns an element with the id supplied. you will need to give your banner an ID of "shadow-bottom". class has nothing to do with it.

John's second post was totally wrong - he changed the class to an id, but just did't say that he did ;-)

Thanks for pointing it out (Dan knew what i meant ;-))

Did removing / disabling the security software work OK?
