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++)

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!

solved!
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.

Script error "object required" when log off

I have created a new user and assigned the "Everyone" role to it. I log in to the portal using this new user. Then I press logoff. Then I press OK. Now I get the script error below:
line:91
char:8
Error: Object required
code:0
URL: http://.....
any idea why I get this error?
note: I don't get a logoff error when I use the administrator or other user IDs.

Hi,
you are using a customized masthead. InSP14 SAP changed some Javascript and therefor, the "object" your are colling in your logoff() function is missing. You'll have to comment out this JS call in your masthead. Check the IE error message explanation, it will show you the line where the error occurs.
I've already posted the solution in this forum, but unfortunately, I'm not able to find my previous post

Script throwing error" Object required: 'API'

Hi All,
We need help in one issue. We have following script which is running fine when we ran it from script editor, but when use this as expression in import format is throwing error
Error: An error occurred importing the file.
Detail: Object required: 'API'
At line: 12
Script:
Function ME_to_LE(strField, strRecord)
ME_to_LE =API.SqlMgr.fMapItemLookup (749, "UD8", Left(strField,3))
End Function
We have created few other Scripts which are running fine and producing required result when we check them with MsgBox. But when we are using these scripts in import format it is saying: Object required: 'API'
IF I can not use API object in import script, how can I process multiple column with one script. We need to derive three-four column based on one input column and we don't want to write separate import script for each column. How and where we can write this script?
Are we missing any step? Any help will be highly appreciated. Looks I asked long question :)
Thanks,
Shivendra

Hi Robb,
"It looks like you and James are on the same project" That is correct.
OK. In requirment we have three-four column based on these column we need to derive few other column. We want to do spilitting and validation in Import itself. This is mainly a Validation requirment.
There is one column which may have 12,13,14,17 or any other number of character in it. first three will represent one dimension but exact value be a mapped result based on these three digits.
There are many validation based on the number on charaters and most importantly we don't want to process other column is validation get failed at any stage.
Do we have anything like Import Action? Probably we want to change that script. Or if we can write something like integration script. We need every column to be processed in one shot.
I don't think it is self explantry. Can we have your email please?
Thanks,
Shivendra

Runtime error Object Required - Captivate 5

Hi,
Wondering if anyone else has come across this problem and found any solution.
I have created .swf using Captivate 5 and when I upload them to our learning environment (Learning Pool), the flash plays through to the end fine but clicking on next/menu (within the learning environment) I get Runtime Error, Line 52 Object Required.
Is there any publishing setting or anything that anyone has come across to make the swf work? (I have a call logged with our environment provider but obviously they don't support captivate so...)
Regards
Annabel

Are you uploading the Captivate content as a SCORM package to your LMS or are you just uploading the SWF?

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.

Arie.

Javascript - Object required error for visual studio 2010

Hi - I have downloaded the crystal report RTM for visual studio 2010.
My App server is windows 2008.
We are using crystal reports as part of CRM application
I am getting javascript error 'Object Required' at the following line:
The debugger after the error message refers to this:
bobj.crv.stateManager.setComponentState('ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder2_CrystalReportViewer1__UI',eval('('document.getElementById('__CRYSTALSTATEctl00$ContentPlaceHolder2$CrystalReportViewer1').value')'));
The website has all the required aspnet_client files and have made sure the application is able to load them.
When tried with a new sample solution the reports work.
Please help. I need to make the crystal reports work with the CRM solution...

I am assuming this is happening after you have deployed your app and that the app works as expected on your development computer(?). Please confirm...
I need you to tell me the following:
1) how was the app compiled; any cpu, 32 bit, 64 bit?
2) how was the CR runtime deployed (what MSI / MSM did you use?)?
3) if this app is installed under custom app pool see the following:
Deploy the CrystalReportViewers13 virtual directory as a sub-directory of your application.
Copy the Crystalreportviewers13 folder to be a sub-folder at the root of your application. You can configure where your application looks for this folder by using the following Help file [SAP Crystal Reports .NET SDK Developer Guide
|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/sapCRVS2010/en/crnet_dg_2010_en.zip] and search the document for ("web.config";). In the section "Configuring your web.config file" follow the instructions specified for setting the resourceURI attribute. This way you can control updates to the viewers when deploying your application.
Note the resourceURI value is the name of the viewers directory and should be preceded with a Tilde
ie value="~/crystalreportviewers13"
Also, have a look at the following two articles. Both are pre CRVS2010, however the ideas re. deploying to a custom app pool still apply. All that changes is the folder name.

Object Required: 'Wscript'

I've used the below VB script in my .hta application for selecting the folder. But when there is no folder is selected and I click 'Cancel' button then am getting Script error: Object Required: 'Wscript'.
Sub ButtOutFolder
Const MY_COMPUTER = &H11&
Const WINDOW_HANDLE = 0
Const OPTIONS = 0
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(MY_COMPUTER)
Set objFolderItem = objFolder.Self
strPath = objFolderItem.Path
Set objFolder = objShell.BrowseForFolder _
(WINDOW_HANDLE, "Select a folder:", OPTIONS, strPath)
If objFolder Is Nothing Then
Wscript.Quit
End If
Set objFolderItem = objFolder.Self
objPath = objFolderItem.Path
OUTFOLDERPATH = objPath
OutpathTxt.value = OUTFOLDERPATH
End Sub

Simple example:
<html>
<head>
<title>My HTML Application</title>
<script language="vbscript">
Sub ButtOutFolder
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objShell.BrowseForFolder(0, "Select a folder:", 0)
If objFolder Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "No folder selected -CANCELED"
Exit Sub
End If
txtFolderPath.value = objFolder.Self.Path
End Sub
</script>
<hta:application
applicationname="MyHTA"
border="dialog"
borderstyle="normal"
>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" Value="Select Folder" onclick="ButtOutFolder"> <input id="txtFolderPath" type="text" size="65">
</body>
</html>
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

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
