mouseover not working in ie7

Question

Hello! Having problems in IE7.It does not show me the "mouse over- drop down". This "mouse over" was working well till yesterday also works in FireFox.

There a table that displays all the current documents.When one does a mouse over on a given document,it displays a list of options in form of a dropdown.

Can it be corrected in IE settings etc?

I am not talking about the javascript here , only the user settings.I am strictly the end user in this case.Also i tried downloading IE8 and it stopped in between.Hence I checked the ActiveX settings in IE and it was enabled.

Kindly help.

Answer 1

Your question seems well-founded, but it's difficult to discern what the question is exactly. Could you please elaborate? Source code may also help.

If you'd like to go a more DIY route, try throwing your code at JSLint. It will magically surface errors you didn't see.

Answer 2

Sitecore generates a lot of temporary and debug code files. This could be the problem. I would try deleting all of the temp/debug files, and see if that helps. They are scattered throughout the site, so you have to hunt for the debug directories.

However, I do see a lot of WEIRD JavaScript things with SiteCore. Sometimes I will load the content editor, and it wont work because of JS errors. I clear my cache and refresh and it works fine. But nothing in the JavaScript should be changing, since it would be the scripts from the vendor. I don't go in and change JS. Maybe they are generating JS somewhere.
