Question

I’m working on a database driven website (I didn’t code it, just modifying few things) and I’m having a problem in Internet Explorer 8 (IE8).

It works fine in IE9, Chrome, Safari, Firefox but not in IE8 (and definitely not IE7).

The problem is when a user comes to a product search page, they’ll click on “select a category” from the drop down and make a selection, based on their selection the products will be pulled from the database and populate the second pull down menu. After that the user will click on a region in the map and the results will be shown.

I’m getting an error that says prod.id null or not an object (screenshot is attached = https://i.stack.imgur.com/MxZ5l.png). I am not sure why this is generated. Prod.id is not null.

Here is some of the code from my .php page: Please see this link http://pastebin.com/VFYcdEqK

Thank you!

Instead of all this:

echo "var prods = {\n";
foreach ($prods as $k => $pl) {
    echo "\"$k\": [";
    foreach ($pl as $p)
        echo "{\"id\":\"" . $p['id'] . "\", \"name\": \"" . $p['name'] . "\"},";
    echo "],";
}
echo "};";

Try this:

echo "var prods = ".json_encode($prods).";";

See if that fixes your problem. If it doesn’t, could you provide a working test page rather and PHP source?
