How can I create an 'onMouseOver' that happens only once? 1

[angela]

I want to create an image that when the mouseOver takes place, and alert comes up, but only that once.  How can I do that?

have this in the script:<br><i>var didIt=false;</i><br>and send the mouseover to this function:<br><br><i>function doMouseOvr(<br>if (!didIt){<br>alert('hehehehehe');<br>didIt=true;<br>}<br>}</i><br><br>with this, if, by some miracle, you want to do it again, <br><br><i>didIt=false;<br>doMouseOvr():</i><br><br>hope this helps. <p>theEclipse<br><a href=mailto:eclipse_web@hotmail.com>eclipse_web@hotmail.com</a><br><a href=robacarp.webjump.com>robacarp.webjump.com</a><br>**-Trying to build a documentation of a Javascript DOM, crossbrowser, of course.
