Errors on IE - Object doesn't support this property or method

in Getting Started • 13 years ago

Hello everyone,

I'm trying out JQuery and have created a modal login based pretty much on simplemodal examples.

This all seems to work fine on Firefox 3.6, Safari 4.0.3 but on IE 8.0 I;m getting javascript errors and the login modal doesn't launch. Also my javascript slideshow seems to not work on this particular page.

These are the errors I'm seeing:

Here is the page itself: http://bit.ly/dtvxGB The login is triggered by clicking on the MS Word icon.

Any hints would be appreciated.

Thanks

It looks like you are trying to use two javascript frameworks (prototype and jQuery) on the same page. To do this you probably need to run jQuery.noConflict() after you load jquery, then instead of using $() to access jQuery functions, use jQuery().

Refer to the following:
http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.noConflict/

Thank you - I have made progress but am not quite there yet.

The conflict has been removed as the prototype based slideshow is working.

The page on IE loads okay without any errors but when I click on the link that triggers my jQuery code an IE page error is introduced and the login dialog is not launched:

So in my php/xhtml web page I have the includes stacked like this:

http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js
javascript/jquery.simplemodal.js
javascript/init-login.js
js/rollovers.js
lib/prototype.js
src/scriptaculous.js
src/simple-slideshow.js

init-login.js starts like this:
