File Manager javascript error

I'm not sure what happened, but when I upgraded my source code and got the new file manager I was having an error 'undefined is not an object' and with a little reading in the forum I realized there was a .css file that needed to be added to the style.config. I did that and everything worked fine. I updated from svn again today, and I'm not certain that was exactly the point where the problem started, but I'm getting that same error again. I've checked and made sure the css file reference is still there so I'm puzzled why this error came back again. My script debugger says the problem is at line 1228 (in the jquery.qtfile.js file) with this line

if ($parent.children(Ul).size() == 0) {
 

anyone seeing anything similar?

Thanks,

John

Re: File Manager javascript error

Is nobody else getting this error? Every time I open the File Manager I get "undefined is null or not an object". I've spent most of the day trying to figure out what changed since yesterday (when it worked) and I am just out of ideas. I have added the style sheet to my style.config file. I didn't think there was anything else to do.

Thanks again,

John

Re: File Manager javascript error

Well, I figured one thing out. It's only on my machine that the File Manager doesn't work. After deploying the site to a test server, it works fine there (no changes to code.) I'm also using VS built in webserver. I don't know if that has any effect. But at least now I know it's working on the server.

Re: File Manager javascript error

something similar happens to me.   rightside icons of the file manager cannot be properly displayed in my local machine. After I deployed it to the host, everything works fine.

Re: File Manager javascript error

Hi,

Does it happen in all web browsers?

Does changing the skin affect the issue?

One thing to keep in mind when working from svn trunk is that the skins in your site at /Data/Sites/1/skins do not get updated by svn updates. So periodically you may want to delete the skins from /Data/Sites/1/skins (except for custom ones) and copy the ones from /Data/skins into /Data/Sites/1/skins. However, you don't want to copy the hidden .svn files so you should right click the /Data/skins folder andchoose TortoiseSVN > Export and choose a place for it to copy the files, this will give you a clean set of skins with no .svn files and then you can copy these into /Data/Sites/1/skins.

If using custom skins you may want to periodically compare your skin to the latest included skins. For example if you've been updating from svn for a long time maybe you don't have the ScriptLoader control declared in your layout.master, you should copy it from an included skin.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: File Manager javascript error

It seems to be happening in IE8 and Firefox 3, so far as I've checked. It works fine on my server, but it doesn't like something with the folders on my machine when running in VS web server. I guess i can live with it till it gets resolved. It's not a high priority for me as long as it's working on the server. I don't really need to use the file manager on my own workstation. It may also not be a problem if you're using IIS locally instead of Visual Studio's web server.

Re: File Manager javascript error

Hi,

I cannot produce the problem on my machine using IE 8 and the VS web server.

I recommend clear the browser cache on your local machine. I fixed some javascript issues after initially committing so you may have an older version of the js in your browser cache.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: javascript error

Hello Joe,

 Im trying to add javascript that i have. I was using it in DotNetNuke and it was working fine. For some reason mojoPortal is not finding the script and is not working in my actual skin. What would it be the best way to find the solution to this issue

Re: File Manager javascript error

Here is the code! i put the code on the bottom of the css paths between the <head> tags.

 

<!--script type="text/javascript" src="<%= SkinPath %>js/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="<%= SkinPath %>js/jquery.jcarousellite.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<%= SkinPath %>js/jquery.easing.1.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

var current_carousel_position = 1;

$(document).ready(function() {

/* initialize carousel */
$('.mycarousel').jCarouselLite({
btnNext: ".next",
btnPrev: ".prev",
speed:200,
easing: "easein",
visible: 1,
afterEnd: function(a) {
show_carousel_selected(current_carousel_position);
}
});

show_carousel_selected(current_carousel_position);

if(jQuery.browser.webkit || jQuery.browser.msie){
$("#mycarousel").css('marginTop', '-16px');
}

/*if(jQuery.browser.webkit){
$("#mycarousel").css('marginTop', '-16px');
}*/


});

/* ***************************************************************************************** */
function show_carousel_selected(index){
//alert ($('.slideshow .button-holder ul li').size());
index = ((index-1) % $('.slideshow .button-holder span').size()+1);
$('.slideshow .button-holder span').removeClass('on');
$('.slideshow .button-holder span#showcase-bullet-'+index).addClass('on');
}

</script>
