[jQuery] Re: JQuery effects not working in Internet Explorer 6

[Tintin81]

Hi Henry,

Thanks you very much for your help. I have eradicated the comma and
also did some other polishing work, but nothing has changed :-(

The error message I am getting in Internet Explorer 6 is still the
same. What bugs me is that Internet Explorer doesn't tell me the exact
name of the file that the error comes from.

It is constantly referring to a missing semicolon, but I can't figure
out where that might be. Not even in which file...

Can anybody come to the rescue?

Thanks for any help in this matter...

Hi and thanks for your feedback.

Changing the document type didn't improve anything though :-(

I think the devil is in my functions.js file. Where would I validate
javascript files? Any ideas?

Thanks...

[jQuery] JQuery effects not working in Internet Explorer 6

[Tintin81]

Hey,

I am new to Javascript and implemented a few nice JQuery features on
http://new.designbits.de";>my new website . All of them
work great in Firefox and Safari.

In IE6, however, the site looks like a mess, even with Javascript
enabled in the options panel.

How can I get this fixed? Can anybody help?

Thanks for any help!

[jQuery] Re: How to submit a form with an Anchor rather than an Input tag?

[Tintin81]

Hi Liam and Klaus,

thanks for your swift feedback.

I forgot to say that I am using the http://docs.jquery.com/
Plugins/Validation">JQuery Validation Plugin for this matter.

The function I am using is rather simple:

$(document).ready(function() {
$("#contact-form").validate();
$.extend($.validator.messages, {
required: "",
email: "",
});

How can I get it to work from an anchor tag in the form??

Any helo is appeciated...

Hi,

I have a very simple contact form that I would like to submit using an

Unfortunately, it doesn't work :-(

Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks a lot...
