Spry MenuBar/TabbedPanels/Accordion Javascript Not Working in IE8

Sep 6, 2012 8:03 PM

Tags: #adobe #dreamweaver #spry

As you've heard, Adobe removed the links to the Spry API files (http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2012/08/update-on-adobe-spry-framew ork-availability.html).

 

My question is: If I link to a remote file, then my spry menu bar/accordion/etc. work in IE 8 properly. If I link to a local file (same content as the remote file though!!), then my spry menu bar/etc. don’t work on IE 8.

Because the remote files are no longer available on Adobe's API site, I had to change all my links and make it linked to SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar (for instance) on my local web server instead. HOWEVER, this doesn't work for IE8.

Why is that? WHy is it necessary to link to a remote file? http://spry-it.appspot.com/ works for me too because it’s remote (however, the file accordion is not available it seems!). But what if they change their link again in the future or remove the link?

Please help!

The website is www.compex.com.sg (please have a look in IE8!!)

Thanks a lot!

    You might want to cut your losses right now and switch to a different widget framework. 

    Personally, I never liked Spry.  I've been using jQuery for quite some time.

     

    If you want to get it done fast with professional results, look at Project Seven's products. They are rigorously tested to perform well in modern devices. If you need it, their customer support is excellent.
