Hi everybody.
I apologize in advance if the topic was solved somewhere, but I could not find a solution for 2 days.

I built a new site from the standard J2.5.11 examples. http://parcdesombrages.fr. Of course I used JAT3, and started to build my template. At some point the menus started not to unfold, only when I was registered, not on all pages (alas on most).

Other than that, when it works it works.

The only thing I am able to pin is that when the menu unfolds, the tag is shown with “over”, when it does not no “over”.

Thanks in advance.
Mike :((:((

Hello Saguaros

Thanks for answering, and sorry for the delay, I was expecting an automatic e-mail.

To reproduce the problem, on Home, just connect as “testcop” pw “prila16”. Then the menu freezes. The top level item has the V sign for children but lack the “over” attribute. :-[

Does not depend on server nor browser (checked in linux / firefox, Windows7 / IE, android / firefox).

To get it back click into “Sondage” on the right and under “Vote” on “Voir details”. Then the menus unfold again.

Thanks again. I really have no clue. May be I broke something in the CSS.28137

Friendly
Mike

New clues : I was able, mostly by trial and error, to determine some modules and components that cause the menu “freeze”.

My current list is :

1. Adsmanager (Classifieds)
2. Kunena (Forum)
3. Simple file lister

What do these have in common that cause the problem?
I tried to install Jquery-Easy but no luck.
How can we solve the issue?

I must add that all the installation is 100% std, and that this behavior was already existing on the Lan dev version.

Thank you in advance.
Michel

This one cost me a lot of time, and pointed out my limits alas.
Of course switchin to CSS Menu solved the problem, but I am a little stubborn.

The solution up to now for me was to install rhe JQuery-Easy plugin, using v 1.8 and disabling mootools in “advanced”.
Do not ask me more, that was magic for me. See Conflict-between-JA-T3-menus-and-Simple-Image-Gallery/page2.

Happy if it was usefiul to some one. This is the game. :p

Hello

It was not a great fun, and moreover it is not ended (Tor-Tags does not work anymore).

The real issue is the fact that different extension teams do not use Jquery or Mootools in a coordinated way. This is very harmful to Joomla as a whole. Jquery-Easy is a fine tool but it should not exist with some coordination.

I am a bit surprised, since I dit not come across such difficulties two years ago in an other series of sites, with a very similar site configuration, which I reproduced on purpose, just to avoid such surprises ironically.

Thanks anyway. :-[

Hi Michel,

<blockquote>The real issue is the fact that different extension teams do not use Jquery or Mootools in a coordinated way</blockquote>

I agree but it’s so hard to control all cases since our framework/extension and 3rd party extensions may use different versions of Mootools or they use the same functions in JS – which will cause conflict. The common case I experienced with 3rd party extension is that they don’t provide option to decide it will not load JS if there’s been already same JS file loaded.
