HTML Question

Wow, thats exactly how mine should be... Yours works perfect... I'm in the process of comparing the "Source" codes...

[lowlow42]

I noticed you used

function flipImage(image, newImage) {
	document[image].src = newImage;
}

as opposed to

!-- hide from none JavaScript Browsers 

Image1= new Image(175,125);
Image1.src = "r1p2_hover.JPG";

Image2 = new Image(175,125);
Image2.src = "r2p1_hover.JPG";

Image3 = new Image(175,125);
Image3.src = "r2p3_hover.JPG";

Image4 = new Image(175,125);
Image4.src = "r3p1_hover.JPG";

Image5 = new Image(175,125);
Image5.src = "r3p3_hover.JPG";

Image6 = new Image(175,125);
Image6.src = "r4p2_hover.JPG";

Image7 = new Image(1024,768);
Image7.src = "nflbg.JPG";

// End Hiding -->

And for every image you have "flipimage" in the link.

....WAIT...
The codes work, but I noticed...

Wherever you're hosting your files from, the server must be better or something... because the page is still doing the same thing on my (Comcast) server.

And our codes are identical... Yours is perfect... Well I guess we know what the problem is now...

That image4.src etc. thing actually doesn't have anything to do with the rollovers. That's a preloader done with JavaScript, the equivalent of the hidden div I inserted.

Making the flipImage into a function makes sense to me, as does the making of any other such feature if it's used often enough.

To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure if in the case of the pages on our server the images get loaded again as my connection is too fast to notice. Perhaps someone with a slow connection (where it takes a few seconds to download a bit over 20 KB).

The only other change I can think of to the code is to include the onouseover and onmouseout actions inside the <img> tags instead of the <a> link tags.

That is, beyond chewing gum patches. Did the reloading thing make any difference, anyway?

[lowlow42]

Nope... It still doesn't work...

So your saying, our webservers are not the problem?

So if I have the same identical code from the page you made, and yours is "rolling" correctly, then why isn't mine?

Placing the "onmouseover" and "onmouseout" in the <img> tag didn't change anything, I tried that out a few minutes ago...

As far as the javascript reloading, that didn't help too much. It made the page that was opening up load slower, and also after a couple of reloads the main page stopped "rolling over" everything.

Well then, the server is about the only choice left I can think of, as I really don't recall ever seeing this issue reported as an IE bug.

If it indeed is a server-end issue, then I'm afraid you have a dead end there as you obviously don't have accesss to configure the server.

[lowlow42]

Oh ok, I guess I'm stuck then... Fudge.... Well I appreciate all your help! And thanks to everyone else who replyed also!
