1st menu item not working

Hi Crew,

I have a very strange issue.... Its seems my first menu item link does not work... It simply refreshes the page..

Now I do have some PHP code - that I will post here, but I have also removed all code and the issue still persists.

main.php?pages_id=5 is the website im working on

if you click home - nothing happens, but you can see that the link is working fine.. ALl code is fine.

The Nav is in a div that is absolutely positioned - I dont have a z-index issue, but I have also tried with nothing on the page and no css positioning.. still no go...

Here is the PHP i am using wrapped around the first href in the parent li.

<a href="<?php if($row_menuwriter_pages['pages_id'] == '1') { echo $row_rsSitewide['site_url']."/"; } else { echo($assumedRoot)."main.php?pages_id=".$row_menuwriter_pages["pages_id"];} ?>"><?php echo $row_menuwriter_pages["pages_name"]; ?></a>

change this code:

php:
<a href="<?php if($row_menuwriter_pages['pages_id'] == '1') { echo $row_rsSitewide['site_url']."/"; } else { echo($assumedRoot)."main.php?pages_id=".$row_menuw riter_pages["pages_id"];} ?>"><?php echo $row_menuwriter_pages["pages_name"]; ?></a>



to:

php:
<a href="<?php if($row_menuwriter_pages['pages_id'] == '1') { echo $row_rsSitewide['site_url']."/index.php"; } else { echo($assumedRoot)."main.php?pages_id=".$row_menuw riter_pages["pages_id"];} ?>"><?php echo $row_menuwriter_pages["pages_name"]; ?></a>

Hi Jason,

Thanks for the reply - This doen not work either, I can even put a completely different link and it wont work either?

Even if I leave the code as standard CSSMW code it still wont work on the first link

The problem is caused by this code you have added to the head tag:

var $riol = jQuery.noConflict();
$riol(document).ready(function() {

$riol('.shuffle').randomImage({path: 'theme/banners/'});
$riol('a:first').click(function() {
location.reload();
return false;
});

});



That code updates the first link on the page and makes it refresh the page instead of going to the page it references. I think you can just remove the second section of that code to correct the problem.

$riol('a:first').click(function() {
location.reload();
return false;
});
