script not working in IE

works in all other browsers but not in IE...

[bitstomper]

I have installed a script that displays images and loads events on mouseover and mouseout and includes a slideshow.

It does not work in IE however and it gives me a type mismatch error on line 84 which is:

zxcp.removeChild(zxcp.getElementsByTagName('DIV')[0]);

The sript is as follows:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/

var MainCenter=455

var zxcTO; 2
var ImgCnt=0;
var zxcEvt=0;

function zxcStyle(zxcele,zxcstyle,zxctxt,zxcp){
if (typeof(zxcele)=='string'){ zxcele=document.createElement(zxcele); }
for (key in zxcstyle){ zxcele.style[key]=zxcstyle[key]; }
if (zxctxt){ zxcele.appendChild(document.createTextNode(zxctxt)); }
if (zxcp){ zxcp.appendChild(zxcele); }
return zxcele;
}

function zxcEventAdd(zxco,zxct,zxcf) {
if ( zxco.addEventListener ){ zxco.addEventListener(zxct, function(e){ zxco[zxcf](e);}, false); }
else if ( zxco.attachEvent ){ zxco.attachEvent('on'+zxct,function(e){ zxco[zxcf](e); }); }
else {
var zxcPrev=zxco["on" + zxct];
if (zxcPrev){ zxco['on'+zxct]=function(e){ zxcPrev(e); zxco[zxcf](e); }; }
else { zxco['on'+zxct]=zxco[zxcf]; }
}
}

function zxcAddEvent(zxc,zxcfun,zxcevt){
if (zxc.addEvent){ return; }
zxc.addEvent=window[zxcfun];
zxcEventAdd(zxc,zxcevt,'addEvent');
}

function zxcAddEvt(zxc,zxcfun,zxcevt){
zxc['zxcaddEvt'+zxcEvt]=window[zxcfun];
zxcEventAdd(zxc,zxcevt,'zxcaddEvt'+zxcEvt);
zxcEvt++;
}

It is the last problem I need to solve before the site is done so it is very critical and I have not enough experience with Javascript to sort it out myself.
Would appreciate some help with this greatly.

Thanks

just discovered that without the second <div> tags the script won't run in Firefox so I placed them back in.

I have jsut discovered that it is defintely a conflict between the two sets of scripts: on escript runs the dots placement, rollover states and slideshow while the other set takes care of the navigation at the bottom with the submenus.

This page displays both fine in FF and Safari but not in IE (dots are missing): www.marcgerritsen.com/people.html

This page without the bottom navigation displays the dots in all browsers: www.marcgerritsen.com/people1.html

Please help as this is the last issue before handing the site to my client.

Thanks heaps.

Got it solved!

Only needed to call the function from within the <body>
<body onload function> didn't do it.
