Help! Script Errors whenever I modify page!
I have no idea why, but whenever I modify anything on my index page I get a script error! I have no idea why!
if you go to http://www.noggy.net and view the file there it works fine but if I change even a small link or a keyword I get an error
" An error has occured on the scripts on this page"
Syntax error line 612
I had a look at line 612 but nothing seems wrong with it,
Please help
Ps. I am using IE4 people using IE5 don't seem to get this error.
Thanks

Hi vy22,
I don't have version 4+ any more (aol in its omniscient kindness, wiped it out), but....
according to cuteHTML (my editor w/line numbers) the following includes line 612
s=screen;srw=s.width;an!="Netscape"?
srb=s.colorDepth:srb=s.pixelDepth;
if this is supposed to be a (condition)? true : false; construct, it is written wrong.
it should be:
s = screen;
srw = s.width;
srb = (an!="Netscape") ? s.colorDepth : s.pixelDepth;
(if an doesn't = netscape, srb = colorDepth else pixelDepth)

Hey Vince been working hard so have not had much time to pop in by.
Nope That line was from Extreme Tracker of wich I have never had any problems with. I removed the whole script just incase and the error line just seems to randomly change to other lines.
I think the problem lies in something at the start of the page that is effecting the whole page.
The next line is
518=
don't see anything wrong with this? Anyway why would I only get script errors on modifieng the page? It is only when I change something I get the error.
Cheers

Ah! Found the bug and slapped it with a herring!
I just removed chunks of the page in Dreamweaver and previewed it using the preview function until I stopped getting the script error. The problem was with my logit pro (Tracker) that I recently added.
<script src="http://noggy.net/cgi-noggy/logitpro/logitpro.cgi?java"></script>
<script>
</script>
When I removed the above code it started working again. Think I should e-mail the guy and tell him this. Is there such a thing as a JAvascript Conflict? This seems to work ok on all my other pages why not my main page?

Hi Vy,
There are loads & loads of javascript conflicts -- usually when you have a lot of global variables & functions with the same names.
But regarding the code: He's dumping closing html tags into a script that goes in the body????? to create a gif?

The problem with your script above (the logitpro script) can be easily solved, and is not caused by the logitpro script at all. Let's have a look at what you took out:
"
<script src="http://noggy.net/cgi-noggy/logitpro/logitpro.cgi?java"></script>
<script>
</script>
"
If you look above, under where the logitpro script is, you will see some deffinate javascript errors. You CANNOT have html inside of JavaScript:
"
<script>
</script>
"
Note that after the <script> tag, you have put in some html codes:
"
"
Thus removing this entire chunk:
"
<script>
</script>
"
Will solve your problem, and leave you with only this in return:
"
<script src="http://noggy.net/cgi-noggy/logitpro/logitpro.cgi?java"></script>
"
