Mootools accordion + IE errors

Hi,

I have a website I am working on for a client which wasnt developed by me and uses mootools accordion. It works fine for me in ie6 standalone, ie7, safari, and firefox on mac and windows xp however the client says the accordion doesnt open for them and some other people they know.

I thought it may be that they simply had javascript turned off, but when I do that on my browsers, the accordions are all open without javascript, so that doesnt seem to be the problem.

any ideas as to what might be some potential problems I could look into would be helpful.

here is the a page where this problem occurs: sd ingénierie-- Collaborateurs

I've tried searching on mootools forums and googling for relative stuff, but havent found anything usefull. If there is a simple solution that would avoir me having to recode it or switch to another js library it would be great. (my javascript skills aren't top notch yet, just recently started to develop my javascript skills)

thanks.

I checked it in FireFox and Safari on OS X and I don't see a problem.

thanks, I know

From what I understood the client in question, uses Windows Vista, but I doubt the OS has anything to do with it ?

In Internet Explorer, if I activate the show scripts error details, two errors appear, but the accordion works perfectly fine for me.

After some trial and error, and some further feedback from the client, figured out the problem was simply a javascript call to setStyle on an non existing element or non initialised element.

There was also a change in css overflow setting the value to "none" which doesnt exist and which only IE seemed to have problems with.
