Help with Java Script ( mouse Over ) action

[shep]

Hello:

I have a small problem, and was hoping that someone who's good with Java can help. I have a small Java script that a friend wrote for me, that performs a mouse over action, so when people put there mouse on a different link, the button changes. Unfortunately, this only seems to work on the index.htm page, and none of the other pages? I copied the pages exactly, and the header is the same. I get a javascript error when I mouse over any other page except the index.htm. Anyone have any idea why? I've posted the script below. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

function onoff(imgName,state) {

document.images[imgName].src = eval(imgName+state+".src");
}

I'm not sure about this, but it might have to do with the location of the images relative to the location of your page. Are the two pages in the same directory?

Hey Tim:

Thanks for the reply. Yes all *.htm pages are in the same location, basically the root folder. the images are all in a /images directory, and the index.htm is the only file that actually get's the mouse over colors ( graphics) to appear? When I am on another page, I get a javascript error? Not too sure why.

thanks fro the reply.

a little confused. check the "state". Remember that JS is case-sensitive. I hope I can help, reply if you're still having trouble.

Shep, don't double post (I merged them for you). Use the edit button and read this: http://www.hostmatrix.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=2753

This is the official grace warning; it'll be warning levels from now on.


On a side note, here's a nice page that makes you mouseovers. The code isn't bad (as in, not very messy) but, most importantly, it works.

i use dreamweaver MX 04, if you have it you can go to insert -> image objects -> rollover image. Fill in 3 lines, and it writes the code for you, with the option have having it preload and all that jazz.
