Can anyone help me fix the problem I have with my interactive nav bar in Opera? It seems to work fine in IE and FF but not Opera.

The problem is that the blocks start to disappear and display incorrectly when you try to open or close a block. I am using the JavaScript tag getElementById("") and DIV tags because it works on both IE and FF but Opera seems to hate it.

Any ideas?

Before I can give you some advice I need to see an example of where this is causing a problem.

OK, go to the site and click on of the [+] buttons on the navigation bar. You will see straight away what the problem is.

I'm afraid as it is JavaScript based a language that I don't know I cannot provide much advice. However, the code does not validate, and results in 135 errors. Which most likely means part of your code is causing an unexpected result.

Opera is the least tolerant of browsers for poor code. If you want I can post your problem on the Opera forums, to see if anyone can identify the problem.

Opera doesn't handle layers very well . I didn't look at your source but if the nav bar is made with a layer inside a layer then that is the problem. You will have to find the problem and run a different script for opera.

To be honest, I couldn't care less about Opera users because it is the least popular browser being used. More people use FireFox or Netspace, both of which my site works in fine.

I never validate my sites or check for errors with error checkers. In my opinion, if it works, it doesnt matter what the code is like or how many errors it has!

(although i should start, im going to be programming websites for a living in a few years!)
