eMenuTree: trouble shooting eMenuTree: trouble shootingIf you have problems installing eMenuTree, try a quick installation by downloading the program and help file only: Download eMenuTree program and help only, 0.3MB. For this to work you must have visual basic 6 runtime files on your computer. (You probably do.)
When you choose "run the program", eMenuTree will inform you of errors in your tree menu or options. If you get stuck, try the following
1. In general, to solve problems first simplify your project, solve the problem in the simple version, and then return to your real version. For example, if you are having problems with images, go to images and turn off all images and run the program. If this works, add images one by one to locate the problem.
2. Go to options and turn off all options. Run the program again. If this works, turn on the options you want one by one and run the program until you find the error.
1. The wrong folders are open when the file is loaded. Close the browser and then open it and reload the file. (Perhaps the cookie in the browser's memory is opening the wrong folders because of changes you have made in the project.)
2. Changes to your CSS file are not reflected in the browser. You must save your CSS file in eMenutree and reload the page in the browser to see the changes.
3. Changes in your tree menu are not reflected in the browser. You must run the project in eMenuTree and reload the page in the browser to see the changes. Also, some browsers may not reload the emenu.js file even when you reload the page. You may need to delete the browser's temporary files and then reload.
4. Javascript errors. If you get a javascript error, first change all your "javascript" folders and links to normal folders and links. If you are using 'cnv(ju,k)' in the options tab, delete this temporarily. Rerun the program. If the tree menu pages can load into a browser without error, your problem is one of your javascript links. Add these links one by one until you find the problem.
5. Javascript errors (2). Javascript errors may be due to your own javascript in your code HTML files. Make sure these code file pages load without error. You might also try temporarily removing this javascript from your HTML code files and running the program.
6. eMenutree can't find the file to preview. If you are previewing the file in a server, go to options tab and make sure the URL you have entered to preview is acurate.
7. Missing a second tree menu. A second tree menu (emenu02.js) will not load if you don't have a first tree menu (emenu.js) in the page, or if the second tree menu is loaded before the first tree menu.
