Why do MAC browsers don't work here?

[Ranbir Kaur]

Hi all,

http://www.gurmatps.org works fine in MSIE6, Opera7, NS7 (for windows)
Could someone do me the favor and check what may be wrong that it
doesn't display right in MAC browsers?

Thanks

Ranbir

You're kidding, right? Several hundred (thousand?) lines of HTML and
JavaScript, spread across 5 files?

Unless you are prepared to find roughly where the error is and trim your
code to a concise example of the issue, no one here is going to waste
hours debugging your code.

If it helps, your feature-based browser detection results in Safari
getting dom = 1 and ns6 = 1.

Given that the page does display briefly the first time, I'd concentrate
on this bit:


//Toggle Layer Visibility
function toggleVisibilit y(id, NNtype, IEtype, W3Ctype) {
if (document.getEl ementById) {
eval("document. getElementById( id).style.visib ility = \"" + W3Ctype + "\"");
} else {
if (document.layer s) {
document.layers[id].visibility = NNtype;
} else {
if (document.all) {
eval("document. all." + id + ".style.visibil ity = \"" + IEtype + "\"");
}
}
}
}

Have fun.

Thanks. I was actually looking for javascript error messages. The small
fraction of code you quote is only for an 'onmouseover' effect, since NS
doesn't support that for <div>, and has nothing at all to do with the actual
page.

Is there any incompatibility for IFRAMEs in MAC? I'm putting it together
piece by piece again, maybe I'll figure it out by myself what may be wrong.

Thanks again for your effort,

Ranbir

I didn't get any JavaScript error messages. Are you logging
errors? To turn on Safari's debuuger, look here:

http://developer.apple.com/internet/safari/safari_faq.html#anchor14

There are a number of other developer tools available too
once the debug menu is enabled (including a DOM viewer).

Cheers, Fred.
