Just upgraded to Joomla 1.5.12 and in IE 7 all links, except the MAIN MENU items, die.
All menus and links in left and right columns don’t work…nor even hover in IE7.
Bizarre. I’ve upgraded 8 other Joomla installations here with no problems…its just on this one template.

Can anyone familiar with the issue take a look?
Thanks,
John.

Update – This issue was fixed by reinstalling the entire template again…as there was no response for solutions to the issue from anyone.

The issue did not have to do with the 1.5.12 upgrade, nor did it have to do with the following error:


Error: $("ja-botsl") is null
Source File: .../templates/ja_edenite/js/ja.script.js
Line: 67
….as this error remains…again without a suggestion for a solution from anyone.

Bottom line, the site is working … including the error (unprofessionally) … but the links now work.

John.

John did you submit a ticket and ask the developers to look into this?

Here are my fixes that cleared up the matter.

The issue seems to have been centered around the BREADCRUMBS…so we had to:

1. Disable the Breadcrumb module in the Admin panel (this did NOT remove the “You Are Here:” part…so we had to also…)
2. delete its code: template’s index.php lines 182-186

The page also contained a javascript error: line 68 ‘null’ is null or not an object
To get rid of that error we opened js ja.script.js and deleted the lines below in red.


//Add span to module title
jaAddFirstItemToTopmenu = function() {
li = $E('#ja-footer ul li');
if(li) {
li.addClass('ja-firstitem');
}
}

window.addEvent ('load', function() {
equalHeight();
jaAddFirstItemToTopmenu();
});


The “equalHeight” above is what was causing all the fuss in line 68.
I’m not a Java guru so there may have been another way to fix the error…but the above did it without causing any other noticeable troubles to the site.

While this may NOT be the best way to correct the above issues…they work. But would love to hear from others who overcame these problems in a different way.

Have fun.
John.
