Simple Dropdown script error, IE6 & 7

[msunickb]

I’ve held out…I didn’t want to have to ask. But I’m stuck…and I need some expert advice.

I used the simple dropdown menu on an Expression Engine site so the sub-menu items are generated dynamically. The main menu items are hard-coded.

Now, this menu works great in Chrome, Firefox, Safari and IE8 but not surprisingly I have a problem in IE6 & 7. When I view the error console in Firefox I get the following error:

Code:

$(“ul.dropdown li”) is null

I have searched the resulting source code and cannot find anything that may have been outputted incorrectly as null.

When I try to view in IE6 I get the following (I’m sure it’s the same thing)

Code:

‘null’ is null or not an object

Can someone point me in the right direction?

The URL is (don’t make fun, I didn’t design the site) http://baptistbuyersguide.surfosi.com.

I have tested the sample file in IE6 and it does work fine so I’m obviously doing something wrong.

I will provide any additional information if needed.

Thanks!

Nick

Nada?

I just used the google chrome inspection and got a slightly different error. Not sure if it helps but thought I’d share.

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method ‘hover’ of null

Did you figure it out? I’m not seeing or triggering any errors and it seems to be working fine for me in recent Firefox. I don’t seen any code fouls on first glance either…
