Javascript error: object expected

hai..
i used two javascript show(),hide(id) methods for particular page items... i had called those methods from the templates bcoz im passing some id from the template that is needed in the page level javascripts...
now my problem is for some i didnt not implemented those methods hide(id) & show() bcoz it is not needed for me in that page , but its showing me error saying 'Object Expected' .. how can i overcome this problem...
do i need to override the method in each n every page... is there any alternate solution for this...
anoo

Hello,
>> but its showing me error saying 'Object Expected' .. how can i overcome this problem...
Another option is to condition these show/hide functions. You can use something like this:
if ($x(‘id’)){
hide(‘id’);
}That will prevent the functions from running if the element ID ‘id’ is not rendered on the page.

Error: object expected in WAD-javascript

hi all,
i have written a .js file which i am using in WAD templates.
there are certain functions which , when i move to the .js file i get the error: object expected.
if i keep those functions in the template i do not get ne error.
i just can't figure out why it is happening.
please help
Godhuli

i guess after moving to file in the MIME repository, you have properly linked it. if you still get this error it may be that server cache is causing problem.
you can invalidate the server cache from SMICM transaction. (this you may have to do it every time you change the .js file and reload it to MIME repository)
also check this thread for clearing cache

Hi Ilello,
You said you activated "some" services via SICF. Please make sure they are all activated as below and see SAP Note 1176990:
ICF services must be activated via transaction SICF:
/sap/bc/bsp/sap/hreic_vp,
/sap/bc/bsp/sap/ic_base,
/sap/bc/bsp/sap/hreic_rt_rep_vp,
/sap/bc/notify,

/sap/bc/bsp/sap/hrrcf_btf_edit.
/sap/bc/bsp/sap/crm_bm
We are in the middle of configuration of the EIC now. Many parts to put together but we hope the final product will meet our expectations.

Error "object expected" w/ SWF in HTML

My Captivate 4 SWF file runs fine in my Flare Help page, until I click off elsewhere (not within the movie) I get an error message about an Object expected on line 53. When I remove the SWF demo (or insert an old RoboDemo SWF) I get no error msg. Searching the Web leads me to believe I need the to load (include) the STANDARD.JS file (that Captivate 4 publishes along with the SWF) into the HTML page. However, I have not found how to do that. Can some supply the code and instructions where to put the code and where the standard.js file should reside when delivered to user?
I have tried placing this in the Header of the HTML page:
<script src="standard.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
But that didn't do it: same error.
Roger

Hi Roger
Too bad you aren't using RoboHelp!
Flare should have the RoboHelp equivalent of a concept known as "Baggage Files". You might ask in the Flare forums about how to set about adding the standard.js as what RoboHelp would know as a Baggage File. Surely Flare has an equivalent. And if not, well, there's always RoboHelp to switch back to!

Javascript Error : Object Required

the title sums it up....
I'VE DONE
searched the forum, didn't find anything to solve my problem
and with google this seems to be a symptom for many problems, no
luck there either.
there isn't really any component i can play with to
troublshoot, it's syntax related.
MY SETUP:
I'm using javascript and reading an XML document. using a for
loop, i display all the nodes in the XML and print to the page.
MY PROBLEM:
i get the following annoying error after page load:
Line: 239
Char: 5
Error: "Object Required"
Code: 0
URL: www.blah.com
i've pasted the related code.
line "239", the error is indicated.
novice web programmer, greatly appreciate any pointers,
directions, tips, tricks, workarounds etc.

You may be grabbing white space or another <tag>, not
text nodes. And
hard coding the loop max can be a problem too, unless you
know there are
exactly 20.
for (var x = 0; x <news.childNodes.length ; x++)

CE10 Enterprise error "Object Expected" when tyring to view a report.

I'm getting an error when I try to view a report connecting to Crystal Enterprise that states "object Expected".
However I can schedule the report and see the results so the ONLY problem is trying to view the report.
Now, I have searched these forums and I came across and thread with the title "CE10 - Automation server can't create object Error " and the person responding says "...Your solution might be in note #1216330".
So how do I find that note in these forums?
I really need to get this issue resolved.

Hi Debbie,
The note means the SAP note (Knowledge based article)
You can access the SAP note by going to the Service Market Place (SMP) by using the below link
http://www.service.sap.com
Click on the SAP note search and put in the above number to search the note.
In case you are not able to get it below is the content of the same note.
1216330 - Err Msg: "...Automation Server can't create object." when launching ePortfolio
Symptom
In Crystal Enterprise (CE) 8.5 or 9 when ePortfolio is clicked on the Crystal Enterprise Launchpad, the following error occurs:
"There was an error retrieving data from the server: Automation Server can't create object."
Why does this error occur and how can it be resolved?
Resolution
This error occurs if a Hot Fix is installed under a user account that does not have sufficient rights to correctly install it. If this occurs, Enterpriseframework.dll is not registered with the operating system and Sessionmanager.dll is not loaded correctly.
To resolve this error message, do one of the following things:
" Log on to the CE server using the local administrator account and run the Hot Fix executable again.
- OR -
" Reregister Enterpriseframework.dll
To do this:
1. Log on to the CE server with the local administrator account.
2. Open Microsoft Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\Program Files\Crystal Decisions\Enterprise 9\win32_x86. Leave Windows Explorer open while performing the rest of this procedure.
3. Click 'Start', and then click 'Run'. The 'Run' dialog box appears.
4. In the 'Open' field, type "REGSVR32". Do not click 'OK' yet.
5. Drag Enterpriseframework.dll from the Windows Explorer window into the 'Open' field of the 'Run' dialog box behind REGSVR32.
You will see the following after you drag the DLL into the 'Open' field:
REGSVR32 "C:\Program Files\Crystal Decisions\Enterprise9\win32_x86\
Enterpriseframework.dll"
6. Click 'OK'.
The following confirmation appears:
"DLLRegisterServer in C:\Program Files\Crystal Decisions\Enterprise 9\win32_x86\Enterpriseframework.dll succeeded."
Now you can successfully launch ePortfolio from the Crystal Enterprise Launchpad.

Problem: Portal Content Structure (Javascript error: object required)

Hello,
i have a problem with my Internet Explorer 7 and the Enterprise Portal 6.0 SP 16. After the login, the Navigation Structure of the Portal Content isn't shown, after a while a error message pops up saying: error: object required.
The Portal is functional in Firefox 3.0 so i suggest that the problem is based on the internet explorer Browser.
Maybe someone has an idea and can help me resolving this annoying problem. Java from Sun is installed an activated in IE.
Thank you!

something really timewasting. I just had to add the site as a trusted site in IE. But it only works if you youse the NAME e.g. www.sapportal60:50000/irj/portal, using the ip adress dosn't work and that's what i did in the first place.

Microsoft Jscript runtime error: Object expected

I have a Visual Studio 2005 web application that uses a Crystal Viewer to display reports developed in XI. When I run the application on my development PC, I get no error, even with the debug turned on in IE7. When I run the application on my PC, using the web server address and click on the drop down to select the parameter, I get an error that says; u201CMicrosoft Jscript runtime error: Object expectedu201D. Both my development PC and the code published on the web server use the fully qualified report path down to the webserver name. No problem on my development PC running in Visual Studio, but a problem accessing the server. The onClick portion is the highlighted area is where the debug stops. This is code that is created from crystal. Originally, I was getting an error; 'Load Report Failed', but once I used the full path name of the report down the the webserver name, that error disappeared. I have XI installed on the web server and I can open and run the reports there. What am I missing on the web server? Thanks.

That would be the CR Service Pack located here:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006255422008E/crxir2_sp4_inc.exe
You will then have to ensure that the same runtime is on the server. Use the msm or msi files from here:
http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/communityCS/FilesAndUpdates/crxir2sp4_net_merge_modules.zip
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009657852008E/crxir2sp4_net_si.zip
I'd recommend the msi as it does not require you to build a deployment project. Ensure that you uninstall the current CR runtime on the server. Also, once that is done, check to make sure that the c:\program files\business objects directory is removed. Then install the CR runtime using the above msi file.

JavaScript error when using HoverMenu

Hi,
I'm using the HoverMenu with the TreeView in my project. When I call JavaScript methods in my form from the menu I get JavaScript Object Expected errors.
For test I have made a simple DynPage iView (see code below). When I try to call the script reloadTree() from buttons, links, checkbox etc. everything works just fine. Trying to call the same method in the setClientSideScript of a hover menu item I get a JavaScript error: Object expected.
I have tried to add the script method as raw text to the form with no luck. If I use the Document.setHeadRawText the script is inserted in the body and not in the header as described in the documentation.
If I add alert('Some test') directly to the setClientSideScript it works just fine
The code example is from the doProcessBeforeOutput()
Document doc = getDocument();
doc.setHeadRawText("<script>function reloadTree(){alert('Alert inside reloadTree function');}</script>");
myForm.addRawText("<a href="#" onClick="reloadTree()">Test of reloadTree() from a href...</a>");
HoverMenu hover = new HoverMenu("HoverMenu");
hover.setMenuTrigger(com.sapportals.htmlb.enum.HoverMenuTrigger.ONCLICK);
hover.addMenuItem("TEST1", "Test of reloadTree() from hovermenu...").setClientSideScript("reloadTree()");
TextView tv = new TextView("click here to test reloadTree()");
tv.setHoverMenu(hover);
form.addComponent(tv);
Button bt_Refresh = new Button("Button_HiddenRefresh");
bt_Refresh.setText("Test of reloadTree() from button");
bt_Refresh.setOnClientClick("reloadTree()");
form.addComponent(bt_Refresh);
Checkbox cb = new Checkbox("Checkbox");
cb.setText("Test from checkbox");
cb.setDisabled(false);
cb.setChecked(true);
cb.setOnClientClick("reloadTree()");
form.addComponent(cb);
Does anyone know why the HoverMenu item script in setClientSideScript cannot access JavaScript functions in my form ?
Regards
Michael

Javascript error with JSF and TOMAHAWK

I've got two selectOneMenu in my page and I would like to change the selected item of the second selectOneMenu when an item is selected in the first selectOneMenu.
I tried to implement a solution using Tomahawk. The idea is to generate a click event on a hidden link when an item is selected like explained here:

"Object expected" JavaScript error in IE7/IE8 using AC_RunActiveContent v1.7

So this is a low-priority but annoying problem I seem to be having on a site with the AC_RunActiveContent embedding script that Flash CS3 automatically generates (v1.7, according to the comments). In IE7 and IE8, I keep getting these alerts when the page first come up:
Line: 39
Char: 1
Error: Object expected
Code: 0
URL: etc.
What's weird is that Line 39 of the file seems to be in the midst of a try-catch thing, so I don't see why that error should even be showing up. Mind you, the site is working fine - the Flash shows up fine - like I said, not high-priority. I'd just like to try and get rid of that error if I can. Anyone else have any idea what's going on here, and how I might be able to fix it?

Bump. Also, additional details: Yes, I did upload the script to the server. Yes, it's being found and read properly by the browsers, including IE7 and IE8; I've confirmed this using the Developer's Toolbar. So it's not the same problem that everyone who's asked about this before has had; yes, I did dig up those posts via Google before I came here, and yes, I have made sure. So any other thoughts?
