| Virtual Earth & JavaScript Frameworks Today I was working with some guys who are using the JavaScript Framework MooTools and ran into some problems. Since similar errors might occur not just with MooTools but with other Frameworks as well: here is the problem and the solution: The ProblemEverything worked fine in Internet Explorer but there were some problems when using Firefox: The text of the Virtual Earth Dashboard was stripped out...
...and Firebug showed some errors whenever the build-in Virtual Earth event MouseEnter or MouseLeave fired. Well, the problem is caused by a property "contains" in the "String"-object which coincidently had the same name as a function in the Virtual Earth MapControl. In Virtual Earth this function is part of the atlascompat.js script which is pulled behind the scenes from the Virtual Earth MapControl and not used in Internet Explorer at all. The SolutionThe solution is very simple. Make sure you load the Virtual Earth MapControl BEFORE the JavaScript Framework. <script src="http://dev.virtualearth.net/mapcontrol/mapcontrol.ashx?v=6" type="text/javascript">script>
