Javascript error when a table is placed within a table popin.

Question

Hi experts,
I have a node 'Parent' which contains one attribute and a non singleton child node called 'Child' which contains five attributes.
I have created a Table 'OuterTable' in the view. The 'datasource' property of this table is set to the node 'Parent'. I inserted a popin in to this table and added another table 'InnerTable' as the content of this popin. InnerTable is bound to the node 'Child'.
For each parent element, there will be 'n' number of child elements. When i run the application i can see 'm' number of table popins(corresponding to 'm' number of parent elements) and inside each popin a table containing 'n' rows(corresponding to 'n' number of child nodes for each parent element).
When i try to select a row from the table in second or third popin, the browser shows a javascript error at the bottom left hand corner. Although it does not affect the application, i am curious why this is happening.
The main problem is that, we have to call this webdynpro application from a function module in R/3 which will show the application in the IE engine inside SAP GUI. In this case when we select any rows in the table, a pop up with a message 'Internet Explorer Script Error' comes and we are not able to proceed with the application.
Any help to resolve this issue will be highly appreciated and rewarded with points

Hi Shabeer,
Can you try this
File location
1) <Installation Drive>\usr\sap\<System Name>\
<Instance Name>\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server<Number>\
apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\portalapps\
com.sap.portal.htmlb\jslib\jslib/sapUrMapi_ie6.js
2) j2ee_<Instance Number>\cluster\server\services\
servlet_jsp\work\jspTemp\irj\root\portalapps\
com.sap.portal.htmlb\jslib\sapUrMapi_ie6.js
and try this
Find the function "function sapUrMapi_init()"
and the line
ur_system.emptyhoverurl = ur_system.mimepath+"emptyhover.html";
Add the following if condition before this line:
if (ur_system.emptyhoverurl == null || ur_system.emptyhoverurl == "")
so that the result reads like follows:
if (ur_system.emptyhoverurl == null || ur_system.emptyhoverurl == "")
ur_system.emptyhoverurl = ur_system.mimepath+"emptyhover.html";
Take a backup . You can try this on your local system before trying on the server.
Keep in mind that the object can be cached in both the server and
browser cache.
