Hi Michael,
Here is the line in my layout that calls the header javascript file:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"
src="/javascripts/
wheader.js"></script>
But I have aslo tried the following:
<%= javascript_include_tag "header" %>
which gives me exactly the same behaviour.
Here is the code in the header.js file, which is kept in /public/
javascripts/:
<!-- Begin HEADER OPTIONS CODE
// ONLY USE lowercase FOR ALL OPTIONS
// CHANGE ANY OF THESE VARIABLES TO "no" OR "yes" TO TURN AN
OPTION
OFF OR ON
var color = "141424" // HEADER BACKGROUND COLOR
var flashheight = "50" // HEIGHT OF THE FLASH (IN PIXELS) (and
adjust the menu.js)
var flashwidth = "750" // WIDTH OF THE FLASH (IN PIXELS) (and adjust
the menu.js)
var stripes = "yes" // SHOW STRIPE UNDER THE FLASH
var stripeheight = "28" // HEIGHT OF THE STRIPE

document.write(''<TABLE cellpadding="0"
cellspacing="0" border="0"
width="100%"
BGCOLOR="#''+color+''"><tr><td
ALIGN="LEFT">'');
document.write(''<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-
AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/
pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
WIDTH="''+flashwidth+''"
HEIGHT="''+flashheight+''" id="logo"
ALIGN="">'');
document.write(''<PARAM NAME=movie
VALUE="/logo.swf">'');
document.write(''<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM
NAME=bgcolor
VALUE=#''+color+''>'');
document.write(''<EMBED src="/logo.swf" quality=high
bgcolor=#''+color
+'' WIDTH="''+flashwidth+''"
HEIGHT="''+flashheight+''" NAME="logo"
ALIGN="" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://
www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">'');
document.write(''</EMBED>'');
document.write(''</OBJECT><br>'');
document.write(''</td></tr></table>'');
if (stripes == "yes") {
document.write(''<span class="printhide">'');
document.write(''<img src="/picts/stretchbar.jpg"
width="100%"
height="''+stripeheight+''"><br>'');
document.write(''</span>'');
}
// End -->
Please let me know if there is anything else that you would find
helpful in solving this problem.
Many thanks,
Jim
