[Javascript] Re: Running two scripts on the same page

Do you have this problem only in Netscape, or in both NN and IE?

I have attempted to combine script use of the latest hierarchal menu (at 
www.dhtml.com) and a script to make a static menu. I have it working fine in 
IE, but it breaks in NN. I've used alert boxes to try and track the 
breakage, step-by-step, one at a time, through different areas of the 3 
separate scripts (in my static script right as it calls the HM_Loader.js, in 
the HM_Loader.js where it calls the browser specific file, and the browser 
specific file), but I have not figured it out just yet.

The Hierarchal Script is fairly intense, especially for a novice like me. I 
think it may be in relation to Style Tags, or possible conflicting Styles 
between the static script and the hier menu script. The Hier Menu scripts 
are set up for good cross browser compliance, which is why I think it may be 
in conflicting style calls (NN has very poor style compliance).

Maybe your issue is along the same lines. Try to step through with an alert 
to debug and find your break. Hope this helps...

I'm having trouble running multiple scripts on a page.

I have one script being loaded

Menu #1
----------------

	<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="overlib.js">
	</SCRIPT>

When you put the mouse over a file/link a dialog pops up showing you the
date/time last modified. File size etc.

<a href="javascript:void(0);"
onMouseOver="overlib('#DateLastModified#<br>File: filename.txt<br>Size:
#Size# bytes', CAPTION, 'Date Last Modified', FGCOLOR, 'white', BGCOLOR,
'3366CC', WIDTH, '180', HEIGHT, 32, RIGHT, ABOVE)"
onMouseOut="nd()">Filename.txt</a>


Menu #2
----------------

I'm also loading the latest version of Hierarchical Menus script

http://www.webreference.com/dhtml/hiermenus/latest/

<a href="javascript:void(0)" title="File"
onMouseOver="popUp('elMenu2',event)" onMouseOut="popDown('elMenu2')"
onClick="return false" class="dirlinks" alt="filename">filename.txt</a>

If I comment out the Javascript for example #1 the menus work  otherwise
nothing happens, only the popup for the file information.

How do I get around this?
