My problem is that I am trying to use a image flip script for the menu on a page. But somewhere I have made a mistake because no matter which image I rollover with my mouse the same image changes. Please help. the address of the page is http://www.angelfire.com/art2/aimi/index.html I am not sure where I made the mistake. But please help me. I have attached the source code in a text file.

The code that ShrineDesigns gave you is from Dreamweaver. It works well, but I thought I'd give you a different way to do it.

This is to preload you images.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">
<!--Hide

name_off=new Image(93,18)
name_off.src="name_off.gif"
name_on=new Image(93,18)
name_on.src="name_on.gif"

newname_off=new Image(93,18)
newname_off.src="newname_off.gif"
newname_on=new Image(93,18)
newname_on.src="newname_on.gif"

//End hide-->
</Script>

This is where you want your images on the page.

<A HREF="name.html" onmouseover="document.whatever.src=name_on.src" onmouseout="document.whatever.src=name_off.src"><IMG SRC="name_off.gif" NAME="whatever" BORDER=0 HEIGHT=18 WIDTH=93></A>

<A HREF="newname.html" onmouseover="document.newwhatever.src=newname_on.src" onmouseout="document.newwhatever.src=newname_off.src"><IMG SRC="newname_off.gif" NAME="newwhatever" BORDER=0 HEIGHT=18 WIDTH=93></A>

that's almost the same script dada was using. he just modify to the point were it wouldn't work properly

and i am sure that he plans on expanding beyond just two images resulting in a script that is a mile long

I just didn't know if the Dreamweaver script was copyright. I thought about posting it, but didn't want to risk it. It looks like my script is pretty close to what he was doing, not the Dreamweaver one.

I doubt it, but since there were other ways of doing it, I decided to show one of those other ways. I've never heard of copyrighting it, but I didn't know. Anyone? it would be nice to know...I've been wondering about that, too.

Thanks for the help, I'll give it a try and see what happens.
