Hello again all. I'm trying to create only two functions in javascript (act() and inact()) for 4 different images, possibly more. Here's my code:




if (document.images) {
  var homeoff = new Image();
  homeoff.src = "/testingsite54/theme/home.gif";
  var homeon = new Image();
  homeon.src = "/testingsite54/theme/home2.gif";
  var aboutoff = new Image();
  aboutoff.src = "/testingsite54/theme/about.gif";
  var abouton = new Image();
  abouton.src = "/testingsite54/theme/about2.gif";
  var hapon = new Image();
  hapon.src = "/testingsite54/theme/happenings.gif";
  var hapoff = new Image();
  hapoff.src = "/testingsite54/theme/happenings2.gif";
  var linkon = new Image();
  linkon = "/testingsite54/theme/link.gif";
  var linkoff = new Image();
  linkoff = "/testingsite54/theme/link2.gif";
}
function act([ImageName]) {
  if (document.images)
  document.images.[ImageName].src = eval([ImageName] + "on.src");

}
function inact([ImageName]) {
  if (document.images)
  document.images.[ImageName].src = eval([ImageName] + "off.src");
}




In the linkage code I have these:
onMouseOver="act('home')" onMouseOut="inact('home')"


I'm trying not to create 8 functions here...one for each "active" and "inactive" image. The code above doesn't work, and I don't understand why. I'm new to this, so maybe I've got it all wrong. My site is [ Register or login to view links on this board. ] and if anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

P.S. for the sake of building, I've commented out all javascript and taken the mouseover code out of my links, the above it what I've tried using and have failed.

This looks similar to one I've used before. I'm not a Javascript guru and I didn't write this, but it may help you compare to yours.
<SC RIPT LANGUAGE="JavaSc ript">  <!-- Hide from old browsers

var iName=""; var nav=navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape"); var vers=parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
  if ( (nav != -1 && vers >= 3) || (vers == 4) ) {
default1 = new Image(); default1.src = "images/home.gif"
changed1 = new Image(); changed1.src = "images/homeb.gif"
default2 = new Image(); default2.src = "images/ethics.gif"
changed2 = new Image(); changed2.src = "images/ethicsb.gif"
default3 = new Image(); default3.src = "images/members.gif"
changed3 = new Image(); changed3.src = "images/membersb.gif"
default4 = new Image(); default4.src = "images/join.gif"
changed4 = new Image(); changed4.src = "images/joinb.gif"
default5 = new Image(); default5.src = "images/contact.gif"
changed5 = new Image(); changed5.src = "images/contactb.gif"
default6 = new Image(); default6.src = "images/calendar.gif"
changed6 = new Image(); changed6.src = "images/calendarb.gif"
default7 = new Image(); default7.src = "images/training.gif"
changed7 = new Image(); changed7.src = "images/trainingb.gif"
default8 = new Image(); default8.src = "images/directors.gif"
changed8 = new Image(); changed8.src = "images/directorsb.gif"
  }
  function Ichange(p) {
    if ( (nav != -1 && vers >= 3) || (vers == 4) ) {
    var pSrc=eval(p+ ".src");
    document[iName].src = pSrc;
    }
  }
// end hiding --></S CRIPT>


The actual link code:
<a href="index.html" onmouseover="iname='image1'; ichange('changed1')" onmouseout="ichange('default1')">
<img src="images/home.gif" name="image1" border=0 ></a>
