Re: Validation failing in IE6/7
Hello again, I'm extremely happy to close this one off. I _finally_ found the source of the problem today. As it turns out, the lightbox solution I was using was including its own version of effects.js which was quite old - and conflicting with the one already provided by Tapestry. Once I removed it, everything started working perfectly. Drew On Mon, 2009-11-23 at 16:42 +, Andrew Miller wrote: > I've taken a look and it's definitely within a form element.

Re: Validation failing in IE6/7
I've taken a look and it's definitely within a form element. The problem appears to be that tapestry.js isn't adding that function to the element, IE6/7 complains thus: Error: Object doesn't support this property or method Interestingly, IE8 was making the exact same complaint until I upgraded Prototype to the latest version - now it works perfectly. This seems to suggest it's a problem (or some sort of conflict) with Prototype, but I'm still at a complete loss as to why.

Re: Validation failing in IE6/7
That seems very odd, as Tapestry (i.e., tapestry.js) will create the Tapestry.FormEventManager object if it does not already exist. Could it be because the field in question is not contained within a form?

Re: Validation failing in IE6/7
I've done a bit more digging on this and I made a mistake in my original assumption: > The failure occurs during the Tapestry.init function.

This isn't where the function is failing - it's actually failing on the call to getFormEventManager(). I've done some further double- and triple-checking to make sure I'm right and this time I'm certain. Apologies for the mistake. Can anyone explain why this function wouldn't be available on this element? I've read through the code and I can't see what would be stopping these from being added to the element, but as it's only IE6/7 that's failing it could be something I'm completely overlooking. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks again, Drew - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tapestry.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tapestry.apache.org
