Hello all, and thanks for getting me over the hump I had to get past so I could
work in Firefox instead of Internet Explorer. My site is working now - both in
FF and in IE (at least the parts I've written, barring a few more changes I
have to make, such as dealing with the fact that the childNodes numbering
differs from the children numbering).
But now in my additions to the site, I have hit a problem. The error message I
receive (in a javascript alert window) is:
"Error processing Javascript in markup for element getTx: [Enable debugging by
adding 'cfdebug' to your URL parameters to see more information]'
(getTx is a cflayoutarea into which an HTML table gets stuffed via a url to the
CFM page 'populateTx.cfm'; when the SQL in populateTx.cfm finds no data to put
into <input> elements in the table, it executes the statment <CFSET
ajaxOnLoad("AddTranscript('Tx')")> to accomplish that. That Javascript
function, AddTranscript(), in the main page, places an empty template in getTx
- a bunch of <input> elements in lieu of those which would have been put there
by populateTx.cfm - by setting the innerHTML of one of the table cells which
populateTx.cfm did put there)
The error message recommends adding 'cfdebug' to the url paramenters; however,
I already have '&cfdebug' added to the end of my parameters, both in the main
page url and in the url which fills the cflayoutarea where this problem occurs.
And I still don't get any information on this bug. So my question is HOW DO I
GET IT TO TELL ME MORE?
I have done all of the following:
The Firefox debugger is turned on, and although it has been very helpful all
day today in telling me what's wrong at each step of my conversion from IE to
FF, it records no error on this one. It's perfectly happy, it seems.
In the ColdFusion Administrator, I have all the following turned on in Debug
Output Settings: Enable robust exception information; Enable AJAX debug log
window; Enable request debugging output; General debug info; Database activity;
Exception info; Tracing info; Variables (cookies, CGI, Form, Session, Client,
URL).
When I run my page this way, the debugging window entitled 'ColdFusion MX
Debugging' tells me nothing. The ColdFusion AJAX Logger says: 'error:http:
Error processing JavaScript in markup for element getTx:' - which tells me
nothing more than what we already know. The application.log and exception.log
files (viewable in the CF Administrator) mention a couple of errors that
occurred earlier in the day but are silent on this one.
Finally, the Javascript function where the error occurs - AddTranscript() -
runs with no problems when it's run by clicking a button in the page (which
populateTx.cfm puts into the getTx cflayoutarea regardless of whether it finds
data). But when it's called via the ajaxOnLoad, I see a little alert window
which I put inside the function saying 'Now in AddTranscript', but then boom:
the error window described above.
Everything was working fine before I parameterized AddTranscript() today
(there's a separate transcript-like creature that it must also deal with), and
before I switched to Firefox-appropriate code. Why does it work in this
circumstance, but not when it is called via ajaxOnLoad? I changed nothing about
the ajaxOnLoad process, which was working earlier.
Any suggestions?
Sorry for this long note if there's a simpler answer without having to read all
the above!
