Yes, it is an error produced by the browser to indicate that whoever
wrote that script didn't bother to learn what they were doing. Besides,
there is no Java in that page that I see. Some crappy Javascript though.

Its not me that wrote the code or the site, just trying to help the site
owner.
i always get java / JavaScript mixed up.
so do you have any ideas what's wrong and how to fix it?

error in IE6 but not Firefox

If something doesn't work - blame on IE ;-)

It doesn't work in any browser, just IE is more "visual" - the red sign
in the status.

All browsers complain that 'wp_menus' is undefined and it is indeed
undefined.

You assign:
var wp_menubar0 = new wp_menus();
in the page script but neither on the page nor in libraries you don't
have a matching constructor.

Also note that you shouldn't change protototype of something you did
not create yet:
....
menus.prototype.m_widthOfImage = 0;
menus.prototype.m_type = 0;
function menus() {}
....

Also your document contains some binary trash before <title>. In
Firefox it looks like [square]>>[square] at the top of the page.
Usually such "trash combination" appears if one tried to read a binary
file as text stream. Have no idea about your situation but it should be
fixed.

Use Tools->JavaScript Console if Firefox to see the errors.

Thanks for that.

I have past the problem back to the author of the site as i do not know
where he got the JavaScript but i googled the jsmenu.js and found a
reference to a serif forum which as i know he uses serif i have past the
info on to him.
