Being a web developer I have javascript debugging switched on.
This means that for almost every action on the message boards I have to end up closing this message box!
---------------------------
Error
---------------------------
A Runtime Error has occurred.
Do you wish to Debug?
Line: 245
Error: Object expected
---------------------------
Yes No
---------------------------
This is pretty tedious and presumably will affect a lot of developers using this site.
Could you please sort it out?
The offending bit of code is this:
<div id="_MessageBoard" onclick="SwitchMessage(event)">
I don't think that the SwitchMessage function exists.

Which browser are you using?
|
|
|
|
|
|
Actually.
I've just thought.
If I use Firefox to browse CP I won't get this problem as the javascript debugger is an IE option.
Problem sorted (for me at least)!
Cheers.

Can you do a view source and send me what you find? SwitchMessage is definitely there.
|
|
|
|
|
Strange.
I can't see it inline in the page at all.
Searching for "SwitchMessage" only gives one result (in the onclick event) and no function definition for it
|
|
|
|
|
Then it's in a file embedded in the page.
|
|
|
|
|
I'm getting the same error in Firefox as well.
Not that it bothers me there as I don't get the modal dialogue but just FYI.
If you have firebug installed and click anywhere on the div repeatedly you'll see the errors creeping up and up.
Opening firebug shows the same problem with "SwitchMessage not defined".

I suppose you've already tried a Ctrl-Refresh?
|
|
|
|
|
Hmm,
Just logged in from home and SwitchMessage seems to be there now.
It's inline in the page so I can't have been seeing an old version of the page or I wouldn't have been seeing any new messages.
Maybe it's been quietly fixed?

Now I'm in work again and getting the same issue.
Is Chris just messing with my mind? 
I can only assume either that the code is written server side conditionally according to something about the Request and for some reason at home it gets written, at work it doesn't.
Or some of the servers on the web farm have out of synch pages.
|

|
|
Sussed it!
It happens when the View is on "Normal (Slow)" changing it to "Message" fixed it.
|

I had a thought about midnight lastnight that that might have been the case. You beat me to it.
Fix has been made. Thanks for your help.

Chris,
Can you ask your people to make a facial to this article? (old though).So much of blemish spots!

Hi, I wonder if it would make more sense to have the "ATL/WTL/STL" message board without "STL". It seams that STL questions (Standard Template Library) anyway pop up in the Visual C++ forum...
Cheers

How about a button that says "Move to Sports"? Oh, and create a Sports Message Board.

I think we could save Chris a lot of time by suggesting a "Move to Who Gives a Shit?" link. That should cover ALL of the cricket posts, and everything posted by Link2006.

Everything he posts is crap, but does anyone know if he went over to that girls house that called him up out of the blue a few weeks ago? It could explain his absence in for the last few weeks...I hope anyway! If there was ever a poster child for getting a life, he's it.

I'd be curious to find out his score on that nerd test.
