Works fine here! Did you edit the code of the script? Like possibly around here:

Code:

var ie=document.all
var ns6=document.getElementById && !document.all
var enabletip=false

or here:

Code:

function positiontip(e){
if (enabletip){
var nondefaultpos=false
var curX=(ns6)?e.pageX : event.clientX+ietruebody().scrollLeft;
var curY=(ns6)?e.pageY : event.clientY+ietruebody().scrollTop;
//Find out how close the mo . . .

OR - Are you using it on a page with another script? If so, the other script may have redefined ns6 or document.all. If so, some changes would need to be made to one or the other of the scripts or, one would need to be removed from the page.

If this is the problem, a link to your problem page would help verify it and suggest the best remedy.

no i didnt changed anything .. by the way i fixed it

what i did

changed this lines

Code:

var curX=(ns6)?e.pageX : event.clientX+ietruebody().scrollLeft;
var curY=(ns6)?e.pageY : event.clientY+ietruebody().scrollTop;

with this

Code:

// IE Fix by xam
if (!e)
{
var e = window.event
}

// IE Fix by xam
if (e.pageX || e.pageY)
{
curX = e.pageX;
curY = e.pageY;
}
else if (e.clientX || e.clientY)
{
curX = e.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft + document.documentElement.scrollLeft;
curY = e.clientY + document.body.scrollTop + document.documentElement.scrollTop;
}
