First of all, this jquery menu works 100% fine in Opera, Chrome, Safari and Firefox.

IE gives me an error however and I need to fix it because it is part of the project specs to be 100% error free in all of those browsers.

It is a vertical flyout menu. The main menu tabs can be clicked to go to a page, and some of the main menu tabs have submenu tabs, so when u hover over, u can click, or hover over to the submenu and click one of those.

The main menu tabs that do not have submenus, when you click on those in ie, it gives me a JScript runtime error saying settings are null or not an object

Microsoft JScript runtime error: 'parents(...).0.$settings' is null or not an object

it gets this error in the function GetSettings  which is called by function ItemClick

So just to recap, cuz I probably not making any sense, I am very tired:

Let's say I have a menu, with the main menu tabs:

File

Edit

Print

Help

And File has submenu of Open, Close, Save, Exit.

Edit has submenu of Undo, Redo.

Print has no submenu

Help has no submenu.

So if I click File, I go to file.aspx          if i go to submenu Open and click    i go to open.aspx

If i click Edit, i go to edit.aspx        if i click Undo, i go to undo.aspx

But Print and Help have no submenus, so if i click those, I get that runtime null error, then i can continue on and it will go to print.aspx   and help.aspx

if you need the code, i can paste it but it is a LOT of code !

any help would be greatly appreciated ! thanks
