Hi,

I recently upgraded IE from 5.5 to 6.0 and now when I use the category browser and 'add' a category, the left cat-tree panel resets to the top of the tree (used to remain at the cat I was editing). This means I have to scroll right down the cat-tree each time to get to the category I'm editing and its quite time consuming.

Is there something I need to set in IE's options to get the previous behavour back, or is this a problem with broswer.cgi - anyone know?

All the best
Shaun

This has been bugging me for months (got really tired of scrolling down huge lists of categories) so I set about trying to solve the problem this morning. Its taken me ages, and I finally found it - such a simple thing too

If you're using IE 6.0 then you need to edit browser.html at:


Update it to:


That fixes it and returns the previous behavour of jumping to the 'active' category or the one you're expanding

Hope someone else finds this useful!

All the best
Shaun

You should use the script below to detect the version of IE, so it well not break again for later version of IE:

function isIE() {
var ver = window.navigator.appVersion;

var pos = ver.search('MSIE ');
var ie = false;

if ( pos == -1 ) {
return ie;
}

if ( ver.substr(pos + 5, 1) > 5 ) {
ie = true;
}
else if ( ver.substr(pos + 5, 1) == 5 ) {
var v = ver.substr(pos + 7, 1);
if ( !isNaN(v) && v >= 5 ) {
ie = true;
}
}
return ie;
}

and change:
if (isIE()) {
frames[LEFT_FRAME_ID].location.hash = node_id;
}

Hi,

Could you show what should be replaced in the browser code please?!?

Just add the isIE subroutine above into browers.html and replace the set_location function with:

function set_location (node_id) {
if (document.all) {
if ( isIE() ) {
frames[LEFT_FRAME_ID].location.hash = node_id;
}
}
}

TheStone,

Thanks for the update - that will help, especially since IE sometimes tends to update itself

However, how would be code that into browser.html?

All the best
