Problems with Javascript
Greetings, i have been working over my personal site and i decided to add to it that nifty Javascript trick where you hover the mouse over a link and an image is changed (you know, you have a nav. bar and above is an image which shows a description). I tried first with a simpel turn on/off script and it worked fine. However, now that there is more than one image to show, the script gets a syntax error. The code is the following:
Head:
if (document.images)
{
pic_off= new Image(162,166);
pic_off.src="menudisplayoff.jpg";
pic2= new Image(162,166);
pic2.src="menudisplay2.jpg";
pic3= new Image(162,166);
pic3.src="menudisplay3.jpg";
pic4= new Image(162,166);
pic4.src="menudisplay4.jpg";
pic5= new Image(162,166);
pic5.src="menudisplay5.jpg";
}
function change1(picName,imgName)
{
if (document.images)
{
imgOn=eval(imgName + ".src");
document[picName].src= imgOn;
}
}Body:
<A HREF="index.html" onMouseover="change1('pic1','image2')" onMouseout="change1('pic1','image_off')">Click here</a>
<A HREF="index.html" onMouseover="change1('pic1','image3')" onMouseout="change1('pic1','image_off')">Click here</a>
<A HREF="index.html" onMouseover="change1('pic1','image4')" onMouseout="change1('pic1','image_off')">Click here</a>
<A HREF="index.html" onMouseover="change1('pic1','image5')" onMouseout="change1('pic1','image_off')">Click here</a>
<IMG SRC="menudisplayoff.jpg" name='pic1' border="0">If you want to see a 'prevew' to the site, go to http://www.eracreations.com/members/leviathan/pages/temple
and enter to the page where i have the error.
EDIT: whoops, wrong forum section. Apologizes for that.

Hey Levi!
shouldn't 'onMouseout="change1('pic1','image_off')"' be 'onMouseout="change1('pic1','pic_off')"'?

Hello Necro!
Well, it seems you are right, it was supposed to be 'image' instead of 'pic', but apparently i ddint saved my .js. Heheh, it works now. Thanks for noticing it.
