Topic awaiting preservation: QUICK JS syntax question

I need this by the end of class.. >_<
ie. 45 minutes from now

how do i link to another page from js?
such as..

you click, it runs a function, then it 'goes to another page'.. i'm unfortunately stumped.

function img(new_img,title,artist,link,comment){
if(!srhsImage){
if(document.all){
var srhsImage = window.open('../images/index.html','srhs_images','width=200,height=200');
}else{
this.location = new_img;
}
}

thats what i wrote for now.. i dont care about errors right now, but i cant even get it to go.

Don't know if this is what your looking for but...

[code]
<script>
<!--Hide script from bad browsers

function go(newLoc){
newPage = newLoc.options[newLoc.selectedIndex].value

if (newPage !=""){
window.location.href=newPage
}
}
//End Hiding script-->

</script>
[code]

Then call it like:
go(this.form.newLocation) <!--This can be used in the value of a combo box-->

Such as <form>
<select onchange="go(this.form.newLocation)">
<option value="myPage.html"><!--will refer to the page set by the value-->
</select>
</form>

~hope that helps~

heh.. what a biznotch. After a lot of modification, the code was working beatifully, with a few annoyances from netscape that ended up being compensated for, and then when we uploaded it to the linux box, it didn't work. XD Oh well. I can't work on it until we get back in school. Yay, fun.

Okay, I've got an entire day to get this code working - or at least until 2:50. (~6 hours from now) [here's the zip file]

I've included all the necessary files.
The problem is in the image code... And Once I get this working I may start on a dHTML part that makes the window animate and a bunch of other fancy stuff like that, but I think it would be wise to get this working first right?

Thanks to anyone who can help. =)

Glad that it worked. By the way, AngelFire won't allow linking from another page. Couldn't get the zip file.

Later,
C:\

um.. so go to the page, and then redirect yourself to the url?
Its accessable, it just takes a bit of effort..

Replace this in "imageCode.js":

srhsImage.document.object.viewedTxt.innerHTML = text;

With this:

srhsImage.document.all["viewedTxt"].innerHTML = text;

Replace this in "images/index.html":

<div name="viewedTxt">

With this:

<div id="viewedTxt">

Ah, that would make a lot more sense. ^_^;
Also, is there a way I can do this same code effect for netscape? Last time I tried it in there, it didn't work at all; hence I have it so that the page simply redirects in such a case.
*fixes code* Thankyou Max.

For anyone who wants this file, i moved it to www.angelfire.com/biz5/groovz/download/ =)
