Preserved Topic: How do I make "dynamic" links (Page 1 of 1)

I am using Doc's excellent rollover script (Thanks Doc!!) and all that is working well. I added to it, so that when you rollover one end of the menu, the buttons change (think of it like a sideways scroll to show more of the menu). Now, I am looking for an easy way to make the button's links change with the psudo-scroll, so that when the button changes from "home" to "resources" the link changes too so you go to the right page. I am a JS newbie, so I don't even know where to begin.

Thanks to all for any help

Call me silly, but I am confused as to what you want. Can you post a psudeo page to look at?

Ugh okay basics are this.
<script>
// First is the array of hrefs for the first menu. Second is the list of hrefs for the second
linklist1 = new Array("wherever.com/page1.html","wherever.com/page2html");
linklist2 = new Array("wherever.com/page3.html","wherever.com/page4html");
currentList = linklist1;

function goto(listnum) {
location.href = currentList[listnum];
}

function switchmenus(menuList) {
// Code here that switchs out your images.
currentList = menuList;
}
</script>

// This is your basic link. Note that the number in goto is one less than the number of your link.
<a href="javascript: goto(0);>Link number 1</a>

then your link that switchs menus you need to include.
swichmenus('linklist1');

Something like that.
It would be easier if you showed how you are switching the menus right now.

is there a DOM path to the link?

sure you can name it

<a href="wherever.com" name="myLink">

and switch the href like

myLink.href = "newURL.com";

Work as that might, the proper way to do it with the real DOM would be

<a href="whatever" id="mylink">

and

document.getElementById('mylink').setAttribute('href','newurl');

I believe.
