    Cool Speech Bubbles not working with Explorer

    script Speech Bubbles Tooltip
    http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...lestooltip.htm

    I am pulling my hairs, the script works perfectly with Fireworks (my version is 14.0.1) and doesn't work at all with Explorer (my version 8.0.6).

    I am using the script with an external file

    you can see it on this page:

    http://www.crystal-energy.com/pierre...a-azurite-657/

    When i check the samples of the script on dynamicdrive.com with the same Explorer everything works fine, so it must be something in my script configuration but i can't find what!


    What can i do to make it work with Explorer too?

    Thanks

    Hmm at a glance everything looks correctly set up. To isolate the problem, try duplicating your page, then remove all the other scripts and CSS from that page to try to rule out one of them being the problem. If the issue persists, also start removing HTML content that isn't directly relevant to the bubble tooltip being shown.

    The tooltip works in IE9 btw.

    It's the:

    http://www.crystal-energy.com/speechdata.txt

    file. Around line 95 it has an extra </div> tag. I'm attaching a corrected version (right click and 'Save As'):

    speechdata.txt

    Use it in place of your current one. Back up the current version first.

    The browser cache must be cleared and the page refreshed in order for this change to take effect.

    Wooooooo! That was THE problem, now it's working with IE 8!

    I have spent hours trying just about everything, disabling other scripts, changing the CSS etc. and it was this </div> extra causing all troubles!

    Many many thanks!

    OK, I'll close it then. You don't have that ability.

    Glad it worked!
