[RESOLVED] Firefox onmouseover problem

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jul 23.2008

This is causing me to pull my hair out! The page works absolutely fine in IE, if you open the below code in IE it will highlight the cells when hovering, but it just won’t work in Firefox and I cannot for the life of me work out why?!?!?

If anyone can help in the slightest, I will be very appreciative

The forum wouldn’t let me paste the code, so I have uploaded to a txt file.

@FangJul 23.2008 — The function(s) should pass a string not a variable// not
HighlightCB1063(Calendar2_48, 5, 48)
// like this
HighlightCB1063('Calendar2_48', 5, 48)
Same for all functions used in the document.

@neiltaylormadeauthorJul 23.2008 — Hi Fang,

Thanks for your fast reply, unfortunately this doesn't solve the problem, doing as you suggested causes the javascript to fail when trying to set the bgColor.

@FangJul 23.2008 — Bad referencing, change this:
var currentCell = document.getElementById(cellID);

[I]bgColor[/I] is not used by modern browsers

@neiltaylormadeauthorJul 23.2008 — Thank you so much Fang, you are a life saver! I had a couple of other changes to make to get it working, but it now works 100% as expected!!!

@KorJul 23.2008 — A note: under an XHTML doctype, the javascript code (same as any other script code), if embedded, should be isolated inside CDATA islands, to prevent a literal XML interpretation of some special characters (as < > &). And use only [B]type[/B], not [B]language[/B] ); [B]language[/B] is deprecated, (even illegal in XHTML, I guess):
<i>
</i>&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
[COLOR="Blue"]/*&lt;![CDATA[*/[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Green"]... code here ...[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Blue"]/*]]&gt;*/[/COLOR]
&lt;/script&gt;

Success!
