Switch Content Script: absolute vs relative URL

[cway]

1) Script Title: Switch Content Script

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...tchcontent.htm

3) Describe problem: I'm using the script in Wordpress and suspect I need to use an absolute URL to the javascript file. I say this because when I use the script on a static page with a relative URL to the .js file, it works fine. Any ideas?

Thanks!

On blogs where the URL of each page can be very complex and not always reflective of the true directory structure of your site, yes, it's prudent to just specify an absolute URL to the .js file, ie:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://mysite.com/scripts/switchcontent.js" >

/***********************************************
* Switch Content script- (c) Dynamic Drive (www.dynamicdrive.com)

* Visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com/ for full source code
***********************************************/

</script>

That's what I thought, but it doesn't work in Wordpress:

It works on a static page:

Any suggestions?
Thanks for the quick response!

On your wordpress page, there is an error with the initialization code for the script:

<script type="text/javascript">
// MAIN FUNCTION: new switchcontent("class name", "[optional_element_type_to_scan_for]") REQUIRED
// Call Instance.init() at the very end. REQUIRED</p>
<p>var bobexample=new switchcontent("switchgroup1", "div") //Limit scanning of switch contents to just "div" elements
bobexample.setStatus('<img src="http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/5553/opencq8.png" /> ', '<img src="http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/7718/closedy2.png" /> ')
bobexample.setColor('darkred', 'black')
bobexample.setPersist(true)
bobexample.collapsePrevious(true) //Only one content open at any given time
bobexample.init()
</script>

As you can see, there's an inadvertent P tag inside it.

Fixed! Thanks for the quick response and for the script.
