There seem to be 2 issues here.First of all use c-panel or your FTP program to check for the existence of 3 folders: jquery, js, and thickbox. If missing,download and upload to where they should be. Secondly research what file permissions each directory should have.After that and you still have problems ask your hosting company for help.Perhaps your .htaccess file is corrupt or your config.ini requires an addition. I have had similar problems. * [bourboncola](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bourboncola/) * (@bourboncola) * [16 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/javascript-error-in-admin-panel/#post-1023477) * Anyone know how to fix this? * This is happening to me on multiple browsers, wordpress installs, and web servers.

The default text in the input stays there when I focus, and the ‘Add’ button does nothing. * Also, nothing happens when I try to hide modules using ‘Screen Options’. * [whooami](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whooami/) * (@whooami) * [16 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/javascript-error-in-admin-panel/#post-1023480) * do you have the JavaScript directories uploaded to your site? * there **is** one in the wp-admin/ there **is** one inside wp-includes/ * they are both named js * [reversi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reversi/) * (@reversi) * [16 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/javascript-error-in-admin-panel/#post-1023484) * hi, just upgraded to v2.9 and unfortunately i have the same problem described above. * before (v2.8) i could not create new tags during post creation; at least then i could fast-edit the post and add tags. * now (v2.9) i see multiple js errors in my admin page, and i can’t: – enter tags– fast-edit posts – change permalink name * I looked and found my js dirs.. it seems they’re ok.. * If anyone found or find the solution, please share.
