I'm hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction:

I have a JS menu that I'm including via external calls and 2 inline functions in /customer/home.tpl (snippet below). What I'm seeing is this smarty error:

"Error: Smarty error: [in customer/home.tpl line 24]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'x' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 590) in /var/www/vhosts/********path-to-install/httpdocs/dsbg/include/lib/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1093"

The menu appears and operates correctly on the first page load but the error is displayed. Upon a refresh, the error goes away and the menu stops behaving in a normal manner.

Wondering if anyone might be able to point me in the right direction.

<div id="page-container">
<script language="JavaScript"  src="skin1/browserInfo.js" type='text/javascript'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
<literal>
function Show()
{x = event.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft;
 y = event.clientY + document.body.scrollTop + 35;
 Popup.style.display="block";
 Popup.style.left = x;
 Popup.style.top = y;
}
function Hide()
{Popup.style.display="none";
}
</literal>
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="skin1/dsbgmenu_var.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="skin1/menu_com.js"></script>
<noscript>Your browser does not support script</noscript>

It should be {literal} not <literal>

Thanks Padraic. I gave that a try too and while the error goes away, it renders the menu non functional.

I actually took out that inline function block so it's now only

<code>
<script type="text/javascript" src="skin1/browserInfo.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="skin1/dsbgmenu_var.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="skin1/menu_com.js"></script>
<noscript>Your browser does not support script</noscript>
</code>

When not included in a smarty template, the menu renders as it should. As soon as I include it in the template, it breaks.

I'm guessing that my problem may have more to do with conflicting JS instead of a parsing error.

Can anyone recommend a tool that will pull in a list of all JS functions (on page and external calls) that are in use when a page loads? I was thinking firebug did this but it clearly does not.

You need to put literal tags around the external js file code as well.

Hi Padraic,

I've reduced it to this:

{literal}
<script type="text/javascript" src="skin1/browserInfo.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="skin1/dsbgmenu_var.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="skin1/menu_com.js"></script>
{/literal}

and still no success. I get no parse error but the menu is compressed and jammed into the upper left corner in a small pile.
