Control panel Tabs Verticle - JS conflict

Post by webacom »

Hello, I'm having problems in IE 7/8 (FF displays properly) with the tabs in the front-end user control panel "Edit Category", "Upload", etc. They are not overlapping horizontally as they should be, but are displaying vertically down the page (I tried to upload a screenshot but it would not upload for some reason). After exhaustive searching and troubleshooting I've narrowed it down to the problem. I have superfish menus enabled on my site and the tabs are conflicting with the JQuery that those menus use. Is there a way to fix this or work around it somehow?

Where is the javascript file that the tabs use? I'm no programmer, so any suggestions would be grateful. :)

You can see it in action here on the development domain: http://assembly.sitesee.ca/
Login with the "user: test / pass: test" from the front end and then click on "My Gallery" from the user menu and you will see what it is doing.

PS. I have tried both V2.5.8 and the V2.6.0 Beta (which is looking to be fantastic btw!!)

Thanks!

Hi,

Hi, tabs are a part of Joomla! framework, see JPane class in Joomla! framework and see the Phoca Gallery CSS too.

Thanks for your reply Jan, I've looked into it as much as I can and am sure it's a conflict with jQuery (superfish) and MooTools (joomla). I've tried making changes through CSS but it will not fix the problem. It looks as if there is a lot of solutions out there regarding the superfish menu jQuery conflicts in Joomla, but they are beyond me (I have the jQuery set to "noConflicts" mode and no dice), as I am no programmer and don't have enough knowledge or experience to implement them.

I am writing this for the benefit of anyone else who comes across this problem to let them know there are solutions out there if you have the knowledge to make them work.

If anyone else has any ideas, I look forward to your post. Thanks again!
