Topic awaiting preservation: Banner Image Swap - now need url swap (Page 1 of 1)

Hi,

My image swapping seems to be working fine:
http://www.hardrockinvitational.com/default.asp

I have the array "aUrl" and it contains the URL's for the corresponding banners. I can't figure out how to swap out the href attribute of the anchor tag. I'm sure this is simple. This didn't work:

document.BANNER_LINK.setAttribute('href') = aUrl[imageNum];

Thanks for the help!

Usually you just call some sort of function that switches the URL in a variable with the images. (or a counter)

So

var aImg = new Array();

var aUrl = new Array();

var delay = 5000;

var imageNum = 0;



preLoadBanners();



function preLoadBanners() {

	aImg[0] = new Image();

	aImg[1] = new Image();

	aImg[0].src = "/images/trammel_crow_banner.gif";

	aImg[1].src = "/images/acacia_banner.gif";

//	aUrl[0] = "http://www.trammelcrow.com/home.asp";

//	aUrl[1] = "http://www.acaciafinancial.com";

}



function swapBanners() {

	   imageNum++

		   if(imageNum > 1) {

			   imageNum = 0

           }

           document.BANNER_IMG.src = aImg[imageNum].src;

}







function goToUrl() {

     document.location.href = aUrl[imageNum];

     return false;



}



Then just in your  link you do



<a href="firstUrl.html" onClick="return goToUrl()">Link</a>

That of course is your code. I swapped around where the imageNum gets updated because I need it to be the current ImageNum not the next one. Also this should degrade gracefully.
