onMouseOver Question - I hope there's an answer....... 1

[JrClown]

[tt]Is there a way I can tell the code below to only work one time per MouseOver ?? I don't know java and was wondering. If so, please let me know how.
What I'm trying to do is remind my users that only 1 job at a time can be picked up and if they don't have a job picked up the second time they do a MouseOver the pop-up would not show up. Make sense? I hope you can help me. thanks [/tt]


<a href=&quot;mypage.asp&quot; onMouseOver=&quot;MM_popupMsg('You can only pick 1 job at a time')&quot;>Pick up this job</a>

&quot;The reward of one duty done is the power to fulfill another&quot;

add this right after the <Script> tag

var isFirst=True;

Then in side the MM_popUpMessage fuction.

if (isFirst)
{

then at the end of the function.
}


this is as basic as I can explain it....if you send me the code from <script> to </Script> I could edit and send it back..

It's not working

Can you please modify the code to make it work

[tt]Here's how I understood your suggestion[/tt]
<A href=&quot;

http://www.yahoo.com&quot;

onClick=&quot;MM_popupMsg if (isFirst)
{
('This is a Test')&quot;>}
This is a test JavaScript onMouseOver event that should only display the pop-up once.</A>



This line I understand after the <script> var isFirst=True;

Then in side the MM_popUpMessage fuction.

if (isFirst)
{

then at the end of the function.

}

Hi,
Use this.

<Script>
var isFirst = true;

callMyFunction()
{
if (isFirst)
{
//do your processing here
isFirst = false;//so that second time nothing can be
//selected
}
else
alert ('Only 1 job is to be selected');
}
</Script>

Then in your code use
<a href=&quot;mypage.asp&quot; onMouseOver=&quot;callMyFunction()&quot;>Pick up this job</a>

I think this will solve your purpose.
Enjoy !!

If you don't want to put so much code on your page, do this:

<a
href=&quot;mypage.asp&quot;
onMouseOver=&quot;if (!window.isClicked)isClicked=true,callMyFunction();&quot;>
Pick up this job
</a>
