Hi I was wondering if anyone can help. I have run into to some trouble with actinic. I am new to it.

I have added a javascript menu to generate a list of links to my top level sections for my site.

The site seems to run fine when live but in the actinic software I get a javascript pop error 'CreateArray' is undefined when ever I go to a different page or section. The site does also not offline preview correctly. Any ideas ?

I have the menu on both brochure pages and the catalogues pages. I have searched the forum but cant find a fix.

an example of the header from my primary template:

<head>
<title>NETQUOTEVAR:PAGETITLE</title>
<Actinic:BASEHREF VALUE="NETQUOTEVAR:BASEHREF" />
<meta name="ACTINICTITLE" content="NETQUOTEVAR:PAGEHEADER">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<!--@act NETQUOTEVAR:HEADERMETA -->
<!--@act NETQUOTEVAR:P3PFULLPOLICYLINK -->
<!--@act NETQUOTEVAR:LOADFUNCTION -->
<!--@act NETQUOTEVAR:TOPLEVELSECTIONS_RAW -->


<link rel="stylesheet" href="actinic.css" type="text/css" />
<script language="JavaScript" src="actiniccore.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="actinicextras.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="ACT_sections.js" type="text/javascript"></script>


<actinic:variable name="JavaScriptArray" value="All Data From Top Level Sections" />
<script language="JavaScript" src="java-menu.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="validate-email.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<Actinic:COOKIECHECK/>

<!--
The NETQUOTEVARs below can be uncommented for getting raw section lists:
1. Top level section list
2. Section list from current level and all children
3. The whole section tree
The rest covers the standalone structure members for each array - e.g. if
you only need sName or sURL from an array.
See the documentation for details.

NETQUOTEVAR:CHILDSECTIONS_RAW
NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONTREE_RAW


NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONTREE_NAMES
NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONTREE_URLS
NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONTREE_IMAGES
NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONTREE_IMAGEWIDTHS
NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONTREE_IMAGEHEIGHTS
NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONTREE_SECTIONIDS



NETQUOTEVAR:CHILDSECTIONS_NAMES
NETQUOTEVAR:CHILDSECTIONS_URLS
NETQUOTEVAR:CHILDSECTIONS_IMAGES
NETQUOTEVAR:CHILDSECTIONS_IMAGEWIDTHS
NETQUOTEVAR:CHILDSECTIONS_IMAGEHEIGHTS
NETQUOTEVAR:CHILDSECTIONS_SECTIONIDS

The section level can be accessed through:
NETQUOTEVAR:SECTIONLEVEL
-->

<!--
The NETQUOTEVARs below can be uncommented and moved to the appropriate

location
to save and load shopping lists
<A HREF="NETQUOTEVAR:SAVECARTURL"><FONT FACE=ARIAL SIZE=-1><I><B>Save

Shopping List</B></I></FONT></A>
<A HREF="NETQUOTEVAR:RESTORECARTURL"><FONT FACE=ARIAL SIZE=-1><I><B>Load

Shopping List</B></I></FONT></A>
--->
</head>

I hope someone can shed some light on my problem

Thanks in advance

M Kane.

Welcome, Michael

You are posting in the Actinic V7 (or earlier) Forum. V7 is basically obsolete and is a crazy choice for a new site.

The code you've posted above is a mish-mash of V7 and V8 code.

V7 and V8/9 are completely different in the way you design layouts.

Best start again with a clean copy of whatever version you are actually running.

This statement would imply you need to copy something to the Preview folder (probably a .js file from the Javascript you added)

<actinic:variable name="JavaScriptArray" value="All Data From Top Level Sections" /> this is v8 code, you need to undo this and go and get the v7 advanced userguide to help you change navigation options - i susoect you have the v8 or v9 AUG
