hi,

http://www.mayacove.com/design/nav/nav.html
this dynamic menu is working fine in FF and IE7, but in IE6 can only
test in that "stand-alone" IE6
(http://browsers.evolt.org/?ie/32bit/standalone, last one on the list)
b/c you can't have both IE7 and IE 6 installed.. but I think there's
something wrong this "stand-alone" IE6, b/c in it I get this bizarre
JavaScript error when I mouse over one of the links in green ("the
specified procedure could not be found") but if I test in a regular
version of ID6 in someone else's machine it's ok..

so what is this bizarre JavaScript error pls..

thank you..

Works fine here for me with IE 6 on Win XP SP2.

What ever you do don't tell that to all the people who have them both
installed and are using them. They will be so disappointed to discover
that that can't actually do what they have been doing for ages!

really? in XP? you can have both IE6 and IE7 installed?? I remember
when I upgraded to IE7 my IE6 simply disappeared.. then I found out
(probably asking in usenet) that you can't have both installed..)

ok, so I found it here,
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=1e1550cb-5e5d-48f5-b02b-20b602228de6&DisplayLang=en

what is IE 6 "service pack 1"?????

will I be able to run this even if I have IE7 installed??

(I'm a web developer, I need to be able to test stuff on both IE 7 and
IE 6.. ) thank you...

Google for "Standalone IE". It's basically a collection of IE versions
modified by third-party hackers. I used them some time ago so I'm not
sure of how they work with IE7.

Whatever, they don't fully mimic everything. For instance, conditional
comments do not work properly.

There's another option (the one I use know) if you have a reasonably
good computer: running a virtual machine with an actual copy of Windows
XP with IE6 where you won't let Windows Update upgrade to 7.

Microsoft provides a free virtual machine image for Microsoft Virtual PC
(although, if I recall correctly, you need to download it again in a
regular basis). But if you have a spare copy of Windows XP, I'd suggest
to install it in an Innotek Virtualbox virtual machine:
