Re: Debugging Errors -- a conundrum -- I think

Hi All:

    Except for some simplifying text and id changes, the code below 
represents the actual code I'm testing.

-Mel



**************************************
// Here is the <Select> element and its options
// Only the actual ids and text have been changed
// the function shoaccoptbutt() simply enables a disabled button
// the function setFocusColor() only sets the color and
// background of the <select> element.
// the var optselindex is a global.
//
// the onclick clause is what is killing my IE8 test.
// (unless I place a standard alert() in the function)
//
// the Alert() calls you see below are my own.  In the
// tests, I never act on them.
.
.
<select id="uselectclub" style="margin-top:8px" name="selectclub" size="4"
  onfocus="setFocusColor(this);shoaccoptbutt(true);"
  onclick="chkoptsel(this);">
  <option id="iopt1" value="41388">Test Option 0</option>
  <option id="iopt2" value="41419">Test Option 1</option>
  <option id="iopt3" value="56080">Test Option 2</option>
</select>
.
.
etc
.
.
function chkoptsel(elobj) {
var el ;
// alert("Commenting this reveals the 'hang' error for IE8") ;
if (!elobj) elobj = this;
el = elobj ;

optselindex = el.selectedIndex ;

if (!lgotdate) {
   Alert("~~~You must Select and Accept a DATE First. !") ;
   el = getobj("idate") ;
   el.focus() ;
   return false ;
   }

if (optselindex === -1 ) {
   Alert("~~~Please Select a Option before Continuing.") ;
   el.focus() ;
   return false;
   }

// when F12 brings up IE Dev Tools, this next shows in the log
// if it is not activated nothing is logged, and
// no crash or artifact is displayed.
console.log("optselindex="+clubselindex) ;

return true ;
}
