[opencms-dev] JavaScript in v5

All I meant is make sure you have the same DTD tag in the HTML file as you
have in the OpenCms file.

A valid DTD tag is:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

And will cause browsers to behave differently than with the DTD you have
below. Often JavaScripts that work in a file without a DTD tag or one that is
not valid will not work with the above DTD.

This doesn't sound like your problem though. Good luck.

Thanks for the responses!

I'm still stuck.

Different DTD tag than what? This is what I'm using:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

Unfortunately the menus need to be rendered in text, not images. I'm
using the ubiquitous Dreamweaver mm_menu.js, BTW. It uses the CSS
visibility property, it seems like that might be failing somehow. I can
trigger all sorts of other events in the JSP with onMouseOver() without
any problem.

It the JavaScript works on the HTML file and not the OpenCms page, make
sure
that the OpenCms page does not have a different DTD tag. A valid DTD
tag has
been the source of many a JavaScript not working in one file but
working fine
in another.

Erik,

I am doing the same thing but with favourable results... 

I've included my simple JavaScript inside my main template. Here's the
code (all in the same file).

<head>

			<script language="JavaScript">
				tab0 = new Image();
				tab0.src =
"<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_gallery/tab_about_over.jpg<
/cms:link>";

				tab1 = new Image();
				tab1.src =
"<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_gallery/tab_news_over.jpg</
cms:link>";

				tab2 = new Image();
				tab2.src =
"<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_gallery/tab_guest_over.jpg<
/cms:link>";

				tab3 = new Image();
				tab3.src =
"<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_gallery/tab_services_over.j
pg</cms:link>";

				tab4 = new Image();
				tab4.src =
"<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_gallery/tab_careers_over.jp
g</cms:link>";
			</script>
</head>

The next part is in the body...

				<a href="<cms:link>/about/</cms:link>" 
	
onmouseover="tab0.src='<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_galle
ry/tab_about_over.jpg</cms:link>';"
	
onmouseout="tab0.src='<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_galler
y/tab_about.jpg</cms:link>';">
				<img name="tab0"
src="<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_gallery/tab_about.jpg</
cms:link>" border="0">
				</a>
				<a href="<cms:link>/news/</cms:link>" 
	
onmouseover="tab1.src='<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_galle
ry/tab_news_over.jpg</cms:link>';"
	
onmouseout="tab1.src='<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_galler
y/tab_news.jpg</cms:link>';">
				<img name="tab1"
src="<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_gallery/tab_news.jpg</c
ms:link>" border="0">
				</a>
				<a href="<cms:link>/info/</cms:link>" 
	
onmouseover="tab2.src='<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_galle
ry/tab_guest_over.jpg</cms:link>';"
	
onmouseout="tab2.src='<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_galler
y/tab_guest.jpg</cms:link>';">
				<img name="tab2"
src="<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_gallery/tab_guest.jpg</
cms:link>" border="0">
				</a>
				<a
href="<cms:link>/services/</cms:link>" 
	
onmouseover="tab3.src='<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_galle
ry/tab_services_over.jpg</cms:link>';"
	
onmouseout="tab3.src='<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_galler
y/tab_services.jpg</cms:link>';">
				<img name="tab3"
src="<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_gallery/tab_services.jp
g</cms:link>" border="0">
				</a>
				<a
href="<cms:link>/careers/</cms:link>"

	
onmouseover="tab4.src='<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_galle
ry/tab_careers_over.jpg</cms:link>';"
	
onmouseout="tab4.src='<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_galler
y/tab_careers.jpg</cms:link>';">
				<img name="tab4"
src="<cms:link>/system/galleries/pics/brandonrha_gallery/tab_careers.jpg
</cms:link>" border="0">
				</a>

Mine works great. The filename is called brandonrha.jsp. It is a
template, so I am not sure if that would make any difference when it
comes to functioning properly or not.

Subject: [opencms-dev] JavaScript in v5

I'm trying to incorporate some JavaScript popup menus in a JSP
template.
The code lives in a separate .js file accessed via a <cms:link> tag
the
same as the style sheets, in the same ../resources folder. There is no
tomcat error loading the JSP and there is no client JS error from the
mouseovers, they just don't do anything. I've also tried dropping all
the JS code right in the JSP, instead of using <script
src=<cms:link>..., same result. This code works fine in a local HTML
file, so the only difference is that it is in a JSP served by OpenCMS.
Anyone else doing this sort of thing? 

Thanks,
-e.l.
