Collapsed form elements do not expand

By peti2006@googlemail.com on 18 Jan 2010 at 15:21 UTC

Hi,

I'm new to drupal.
I figured out a problem and can't understand why it happen.
Please see the attached image.
I cannot expend all links.
I don't know it happen because of module conflit or theme.
Can someone help me to solve this?
Sorry for my bad english.
Thanks you in advance.

1. Please do not double post. One forum only. Rude in any language
2. Go to a standard theme, like garland, and see if you have the problem
3. Are you using a different menu module? Turn it off.

Thanks you for your

Not a reason to double post -- you can just post the image to a site like flickr and link to it in the forums. Thanks.

Are your menus set to expand?

tpainton commented 18 January 2010 at 15:42

Make sure you have your menu options set to collapsable?

Usually a javascript error -

dman commented 18 January 2010 at 16:16

Usually a javascript error - by contributed code - causes collapsed areas to stay collapsed.
Most often due to things added in the hteme, but possibly from other additions.

Solution: disable javascript in your browser, and all blocks will be open.
That manes you have a working (but ugly) site.

Then look for your javascript errors. All browsers have a log of alerts and problems, you just have to find them. Probably a really small [x] icon in the corner of the screen somewhere.

same problem but only for new content creation page

vinx2o2o commented 21 January 2010 at 16:48

very strange...i had the same problem like you in all pages.
Then i've disabled some modules and now all works fine except all create content pages (image, story, page, etc.).
For example in modules view the collapse/expande function works fine.
I've try to disable other modules (except jquery that i must have) and nothing changes.
there isn't error either in browser (all browser) or in drupal log. Only with IE6 seems to work...but this is not a solution
it's a real problem cause now I can only post very simple content (no attachment, no images, nothing!)
I've seen all templates and and misc/collapse.js seems to be write correct.
I've try to switch to garland but the problem remain...

any suggestion?

UPDATE:
the only difference between a page that work (i can collapse/expand) and the page with problem is into the php code produced after loading the page.
in correct page it load tableheader and collapse instead autocomplete, collapse and textarea

page that works:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/misc/jquery.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/misc/drupal.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/sites/default/files/languages/it_21676cd2982689f5efd2279d0e45aa69.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/sites/all/modules/dhtml_menu/dhtml_menu.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/misc/tableheader.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/misc/collapse.js?o"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/sites/all/modules/jquery_ui/jquery.ui/ui/minified/ui.core.min.js?o"></script>

page that not works:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/misc/jquery.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/misc/drupal.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/sites/default/files/languages/it_21676cd2982689f5efd2279d0e45aa69.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/sites/all/modules/dhtml_menu/dhtml_menu.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/misc/autocomplete.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/misc/collapse.js?o"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/misc/textarea.js?o"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="/lv/sites/all/modules/jquery_ui/jquery.ui/ui/minified/ui.core.min.js?o"></script>

i dont know if this is useful...

UPDATE2:
IE8 error console write that there is an error in line 54 code 3 in collapse.js
In the same file (and also in autocomplete.js) the firefox error console write "$ is not a function" always in line 54

this is the line 54:

Drupal.behaviors.collapse = function (context) {
  $('fieldset.collapsible > legend:not(.collapse-processed)', context).each(function() {

if i try to delete collapse.js the page that works load all the text area expanded. The page that not work load all the text area still collapsed!!!

now i have a great headache....

UPDATE3:
i've try to uninstal and reinstall (other versions) of jquery update, jquery ui, skinr, modalframe and...nothing happen..............

"$ is not a function"
is the clue you are looking for.
That means either jquery is not loaded (but it is) or more likely, you have some other code or library like prototype.js , yui or scriptaculous or other that's conflicting with the jquery standard library.

Are you inserting any weird code later in the page? Third party ads? pop-unders? Facebook zombie status? Malware insertion scripts? twitter twat?

"pop-unders? Facebook zombie status? Malware insertion scripts? twitter twat?" LOL!
I've thinked about your word and i've disabled a lot of modules without good result....but at last i've resolved but i'm not so happy....
the problem was wibiya module. This module is full of "zombie" apps, if i temporarily disabled it the create content works.
But this module is really useful for this site...i cant disable continually this module cause probably other user connect to the site using frequently the wibiya integration features.

thank you very much Dan. Your suggestion permit me to add the (huge) initial contents to the site but i hope to find an other way to dont disable wibiya.

I think i'll open a bug on wibiya module

thanks again!

vinx2o2o commented 22 January 2010 at 09:31

i've finally solved the entire problem!
in the wibiya module bugs section there is a really simple solution (and another less simple): check the javascript compatibily box in wibiya administration page (on wibiya site..)

I paste here the URL, it can be useful to other user: http://wibiya.com/Troubleshooting.php

bye

Yep
