D 5.2

I lost the visibility of the State field to select from.

The data is there, as I am able to change it and Save

Saved node shows a State, but the Dropdown to choose from is blank.
--------------------------
Already tried:
1) Disable module
2) UnInstall module

3) Enabled Module

no good - same issues

4) deleted test node
5) added new test CCK node

no good same issues

any suggestions?

Thanks

not sure if this will help any, but if it might - here is a bit more info

I have been testing the best way to do a State -> County using the modules we have here.

I tried these two modules during the time period - when it was working to now -not working

1) fixedDataDropdown
2) CCK Taxonomy Super Select Ultra

I did not like the action of these two modules, I have them disabled now.

update

I was using MS IE7 - when these problems appeared - at first though there was no problems

Using Firefox - the dropdown list appears

IE7 - did suddenly start sending me message - I've never seen before

"A script on this page is causing IE to run slowly...........................

I choose not to abort the script before.

as a test - I said Yes --- to Abort --- once and the State failed to load. (there - but no data)

I hope this helps a bit.

Sounds like maybe a jquery problem? I'll take a look at my code anyway. I'm running D5.2 and Firefox 2.whatever on XP.

You might also check the activeselect issue queue. You are using activeselect, right?

I trust that fixedDataDropdown and CCK TSSU ar uninstalled? Actually, CCK TSSU shouldn't interfere at all. I can't vouch for what fixedDataDropdown does.

Were there any dependencies for fixedDataDropdown that might still be around?

I think I found it

The script error is coming from CCK Taxonomy Super Select Ultra module and looks like it clobbers yours.

As the other module is mine as well, I would very much like to know where the problem is. Could you let me know? Post it in the CCK TSSU issue queue please.

Nevermind. It seems you did.

Not sure if you know this already, but this issue has yet to be officially fixed as far as I know, but there is a patch that does the trick in the time being:

http://drupal.org/node/147076 (see #4)

I confirm that the issue exists for IE 6 as well, and this patch fixed it for me.

OK, changing the title so others can find it easier.
