Hello. I'm using dreamweaver to build my site. I have a menu with three graphic images representing the links and I want to generate a code that does this:
when the user rolls their mouse over the menu graphic, I want a different graphic to change. I don't want the menu graphics themselves will to change, just an unrelated graphic. Is this possible?

Yes, it is possible. Something like this:

<a href="#" onmouseover="document.imagename.src='someother.gif';" onmouseout="document.imagename.src='theoriginal.gif';">Change image</a>

<img src="theoriginal.gif" name="imagename">

Thank you! That worked, except now my image does not restore to it's original when I move the cursor off of my menu choice. Can you help me do that too?!

That is this part of the code:

<a href="#" onmouseover="document.imagename.src='someother.gif';" onmouseout="document.imagename.src='theoriginal.gif';">Change image</a>

Beware this method for your slower connected useres. Hide/Showing divs atop the pic works abit faster, for me anyway.
