JavaScript and Clicking to Change Photos

[MariaC]

I'm having what appears to be compatibility problems with Netscape 6 and Netscape 4.6.

I'm trying to change a photo (name="girl&quot that is inside a layer and put another photo in its place.

I started by writing:

<p onClick=&quot;document.girl.src='hiking.jpg'&quot;>Hiker</p>
But this worked on Netscape 6 and IE but NOT on Netscape 4.7

Then I tried:

<a href=&quot;javascript:void(0)&quot; onClick=&quot;document.girl.src='hiking.jpg'&quot;>Hiker</a>

But this only worked with IE and not with any version of Netscape.

Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

MariaC,

I believe 'the other' browser requires the use of 'object.src' as the RValue to that expression, i.e.:

document.girl.src = hiker.src;

where 'hiker' is a image you previously loaded in your script, i.e.:

var hiker = new Image();
hiker.src = "/images/hiker.jpg";

Hope this helps
