<TD> in NS 4.76 using JS

[Desperados]

hi,

I need to change the bgimage applied to a <TD> when i click on a link inside the cell... is that possible?
_______________________

| LINK <-|--- Bgimage
|_______________________|

I solved the problem in IE4+ and NS6 with the following instruction:

document.getElementById(&quot;Back&quot;+i).setAttribute(&quot;background&quot;,&quot;images/menu_on_bg.gif&quot;

where 'i' is the number of the <TD> being clicked.

But i can't find the right sintax for NS4.76...
tnx.

Unfortunately, you won't find the right syntax because N4 doesn't support getElementById().
You cannot change background image of a table cell dynamically in N4.

tnx... but there's no tricks that i can use for?

Hi

Iam not sure whether this works but give it a shot. Try this onclick syntax for your link inside td.
<a href=&quot;#&quot; onclick=&quot;javascriptarentNode.src='whateversourceuwant.jpg';&quot;></a>

Again iam not sure whether parentNode is supported in netscape4.Give it a shot and let me know. Badrinath Chebbi

| LINK 1 | LINK 2 | LINK 3| LINK 4|
|______|______|______|______|
