This isn't a redbox issue.

I can confirm the error. It´s definetely an IE 6 Thing. When hovering over a menu with sub items in IMP everything on the screen except the dropdown boxes (like the folders dropdown) dissappears . With IE 7 it works just fine Regards Henning

Are you sure this ticket is not a duplicate of this? http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/?id=5887 Which was fixed here: http://cvs.horde.org/diff.php?r1=1.7&r2=1.8&f=imp%2Fjs%2Fsrc%2Fmessage.js

Okay, well, my patch in this ticket is bogus, so ignore it. I am seeing the same error with that patch... I'm not even sure the problem is in redbox.js, that just seemed to be the most obvious thing that I upgraded the day the problems started. The problems started after the changes to */js/redbox.js, but I also updated imp/lib/Crypt/SMIME.php, framework/DataTree/DataTree/sql.php, framework/Share/Share.php,framework/UI/UI/Pager.php, and framework/UI/UI/Widget.php at the same time. The problem only exists in IE 6. It acts differently at times depending on various things that are hard to pin down. But it always registers as a JS error in MS IE 6 whether the menus work or not. It occurs on any of the menu items at the top that have submenus (widgets with menus) such as reply, forward, and headers. I'm at a loss as to what is causing this really. But it is very real. It happens on both my IE 6 machines, and to 3 of my users who use IE 6. It does not happen to anyone who is using any browser other than IE 6. If you need access to my horde install (via the web) just let me know and I'll give you a login...

I tried to take a look at this, but I'm not seeing it yet - what do you mean by moving the cursor over the redbox link? Which one?

The latest redbox.js scripts don't work with IE 6 though they work with everything else I've tried. When you move the cursor over the redbox link, the screen contents mostly disappear. The following fixed the problem for me in IE 6 while using IMP.
