[Chameleon] Certain tools not functioning in IE (6.0)

[Jennifer Zeisloft]

Hi Jacob-

None of the applications causing problems had IMAGEPATH or IMAGEURL tags in 
the WEB object (only max and minscale). I added these tags, tested the apps, 
deleted the final "/", tested, changed the direction of the slashes, tested, 
etc. No luck.

And then I realized the error is a little more complicated than I had 
originally described. While none of the buttons work in IE, those with 
pop-ups associated with them have a hover state, but don't do anything. The 
other buttons simply do nothing. After further testing, I realized that none 
of the buttons associated with pop-ups worked in Mozilla either (but they do 
have a hover state, just as in IE). But the rest of the buttons work in 
Mozilla.

One last note: all of these buttons worked prior to the upgrade of ms4w and 
chameleon (from ms4w 1.0.3 and chameleon 2.0 to ms4w 1.2.1 and chameleon 2.2). 
Could it be something with the way the new installation handles these 
widgets?

Again, thank you very much for your help!
