I am getting an object expected ')' error on IE 7 and after debugging I found the culprit is somewhere in here:


function updatestate(country)
{
 if (country.value == {DEFAULTCOUNTRY}) 
 {
  document.getElementById('americanstate').style.display = "block";
  document.getElementById('foreignstate').style.display = "none";
 }
 else
 {
  document.getElementById('americanstate').style.display = "none";
  document.getElementById('foreignstate').style.display = "block";
}
}

The debugger that ie has seems to be pointing here:


document.getElementById('americanstate').style.display = "block";
document.getElementById('foreignstate').style.display = "none";

but I can't be sure.

I don't use the country field so I've temporarily removed it to get rid of the error.

-----------------

onunload="GUnload()" for the google maps also causes an ie script error if it is shown on any page that doesn't have a map, but I can fix that with a conditional.

This is fixed in the next release. onunload="GUnload()" for the google maps also causes an ie script error if it is shown on any page that doesn't have a map, but I can fix that with a conditional. It's already conditionalized.

Oh yes, as written it's conditionalized, but IE doesn't care, it still throws a javascript error up unless I only include onunload="GUnload()" on the pages with maps. Thanks!

Solution: <body<IF {SWITCH_MAP}> onload="if(typeof(load) == 'function'){load();}" onunload="if(typeof(GUnload) == 'function'){GUnload();}"</IF>>
