Hello!

I tried to flip some images in a HTML page. It worked fine but if I put it into a frame, images are all the time dowloaded from server.
Here's my source code:

<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
btn_unsel=new Image();
btn_unsel.src="btn_unsel.gif";
btn_sel=new Image();
btn_sel.src="btn_sel.gif";
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="whatever.html" target="main_frame"
onmouseover="btn.src='btn_sel.gif'"
onmouseout="btn.src='btn_unsel.gif'">
<img name="btn" border=0 src="btn_unsel.gif">
</a>
</body>
</html>

Any idea? Thanks.

Your image has a name, btn. In the link where it says onmouseover, don't just put btn.src. Put document.btn.src. That should work.:)

document.btn.src='btn_sel.src'

you also have the wrong name for the source. you are using the gif again rather than the variable where you stored it.

If that is true, then you don't want the VAR inside quotes. It should be:

document.btn.src = btn_sel.src;

Thank you all for your help but I still have the problem. I tried everything, I don't understand...:confused:

Uh, I'm not too sure, but do you need a semicolon ( ; ) after your event handlers? I always put one in after an 'onMouseOver' and 'onMouseOut'.

no ; needed in our example. the ; is ued to separate more than one script statement.
