Bernard: Nick, what is your issue? on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: www.ngr78.co.uk/control - tabs not working.
Error: Event.observe is not a function Source File: http://www.ngr78.co.uk/shared/yacs.js Line: 872
errors in firefox and ie on Nov. 26 2007
Bernard: Event is part of included/browser/prototype.js. Has this one been updated? on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: Well its an upgrade from 7.6 to 7.10 so its a new file on Nov. 26 2007
Bernard: Is it present in the directory? on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: yes on Nov. 26 2007
Bernard: And what is the size of the file temporary/cache_included_browser_minify.js, if any? on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: 39, 813 bytessorry, its not there, that was calendar_minify... on Nov. 26 2007
Tof: there was a post today, and we met a equivalent problem on gresivaudan.org. It seems that yacs.js works better when it's included in th page_header than in the page_footer.
(in the global.php) on Nov. 26 2007
Bernard: Nick, this may be related to a memory issue on the included/jsmin.php. To validate this edit the file included/browser/minify.php and comment out the line 77, that invokes the jsmin library. on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: ok made the change... on Nov. 26 2007
Bernard: And... on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: just purging cache..
no error. tab not working on Nov. 26 2007
Tof: hem... i'd like to insist... on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: I shall try adding the js file in the skin... on Nov. 26 2007
Tof: may be your solution on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: to the top on Nov. 26 2007
Bernard: Nick, attempt to load included/browser/minify.php manually in browser windows to see if some error is generated there. on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: well i dont get a js error
i get a blank screen which suggests page not loading
i increased the php memory limit to 32m and it loads ! on Nov. 26 2007
Tof: (last try before i go to bed.... did you read my advice ?) on Nov. 26 2007
Bernard: Normally, the script at this address read all .js files from included/browser, concatenate them, and put the result in temporary/cache_included_browser_minify.js, for an overall size of about 199kbytes. on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: and the tabs are now working - 32m is a LOT
Tof, no need, its a memory issue, thanks anyhow on Nov. 26 2007
Tof: ok thanks. on Nov. 26 2007
Bernard: Nick, normally only the jsmin is requiring this, and only once, to produce the cached version. However memory consumption goes just too high and in version 7.11 i have de-activated the jsmin call. In case of problem the alternative is to copy the version provided in the archive directly to the temporary directory. on Nov. 26 2007
Tof: meanwhile, bernard, do you have a reason for the problem i exposed ? i dont find one, but it's not the first time i get such a problem; sometimes js files works better in headers... ? on Nov. 26 2007
Bernard: Tof, I was not aware of this. Has this problem been documented somewhere? on Nov. 26 2007
NickR: Thanks, I must go an make my wife a cup of tea. Speak to you guys later. on Nov. 26 2007
Tof: yes a post today in the bugs thread i think. the pb can apppear if there is an error in another javascript operation that block the rest of the js executions. that's the only reason i found , but maybe there is another one.
have a nice tea Bye Nick. on Nov. 26 2007
Bernard: Ok, i will check the thread and answer directly there. See you guys. on Nov. 26 2007
Tof: see you. on Nov. 26 2007
