JavaScripts Conflick

On my home page I had a scroller that has updated information for those to
read. I was working on another scroller that I want to add along the side.
When I added the second scroller, the first one stopped working. To verify,
I turned the second one off (by misspelling the JavaScript file name) and
the original one works again.

Why is this?
Can't I have both scrollers running at the same time (that calls two
different JavaScripts?

Thanks
 
Yes you can, but you have give unique names to each script/functions

Each script is separate and in a folder named "MyScripts".

Top of page, I call:
MyScripts/TranslucentScroller.js

Bottom of page, I call:
MyScripts/ScrollingMessages.js
 
Even though they may be separate external .js files, if they contain function names that
are the same they will conflict.
You need to rename the functions in one of the scripts.

But are the actual function calls named uniquely?

I will look it over. I guess, being a C++ programmer, I was under the
impression that each JavaScript contains private data & variables.
Variables that are private to one script cannot be seen by the other script.
 
In javascript, identical function names will conflict as will identical "Global"
variables.
However, iirc variables declared "within" a function will not.

You would think that if the source files had different names, that they would run in
separate memory spaces, but it seems javascript doesn't work that way.

Yes the function calls are unique.
I have not found global variables that have same name.. Yet!
 
By any chance are you calling the main functions for the scripts using onload="function()" in the
opening body tag??
If so, you can only use one onload= but you can call two functions with it like this:

onload="function1(); function2()"

Your html is badly mangled
The <body> tag is half way down the page
the onload in it is incorrect
onLoad=" focus() startBlink()"
should be
onLoad="focus(); startBlink();"

The oncontextmenu="return false" ondragstart="return false" (if you really need them) should be
oncontextmenu="return false;" ondragstart="return false;"

I'm not sure how to answer this question. I did not write the Scripts
myself.
The ScrollingMeasage.js has a call as shown:
window.onload=populate

The translucentscroller.js has a call as shown:
window.onload=startit

My homepage html has an OnLoad= in it but neither of these function (above)
are there.
 
I don't think so (-;
Still missing proper body tags and ends with
</body></html>&nbsp;</html>

Ouch! Wonder what did that. That should be fixed now.

Of coursed I renamed the Script call TranslucentScroller.js to
TranslucentScrollerXX.js to make in incorrect. If I correct the spelling,
it will work and the scroll at the top will not. Still can't find the
conflict.

I'm working the issues but I don't understand how to fix:

Line 34: In Internet Explorer 5.0 the tag <DIV> cannot contain a tag
<BODY>.
Line 33: In Internet Explorer 5.0 the tag <HTML> cannot contain a tag
<DIV>.

It seems that these really shouldn't be an issue! Right?
This issue is on every page.

1st error message means you have this structure -

<div...><body>

and that's illegal.

2nd error message means you have this structure -

<html><div>

and that's illegal.

The tree of a valid HTML page would be -

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

All HTML markup (except for <title>, <meta> and comments) should be between
<body> and </body>.

Compatibility is now okay but I still have the same problem with the two
scrollers. If I correct the spelling of the one at the bottom of the page,
it will work correctly but the top scroller will quit working.

This is still the main issue that I need to resolve. Meanwhile, I will fix
the compatibility of all pages.

Thanks I did fix that. I understand to. My real question what that I did
not know how it got that way. I did not write the code that way, it had to
be generated itself. Anyway, I fix it.

Thanks again.
