Slime Lunatic (VI) Mad Scientist From: Massachusetts, USA Insane since: Mar 2000	posted 07-23-2002 12:52 The line var moseover=onmuseover="detener();" has the effect of setting the variable onmuseover to the value "detener();", and then setting the variable moseover to the same value "detener();". It's coincidence that this didn't cause a syntax error. You made two mistakes: 1. watch your spelling of "mouse". 2. you must contain the string expression within quotes. The correct line would be var mouseover = 'onmouseover="detener();"'; Notice that I used single quotes, since you have double quotes inside the string. (HTML requires double quotes, while Javascript allows either double or single.) Another solution would be to use backslashes to "escape" the double quotes: var mouseover = "onmouseover=\"detener();\""; Try one of those and see if they work.
Wakkos Maniac (V) Mad Scientist From: Azylum's Secret Lab Insane since: Oct 2000	posted 07-23-2002 13:06 none of them worked for me, Slime, I make another link, out of the div, and the onmouseover ="detener();" worked fine, I think that the problem is with that variable, Maybe when I insert it into the script??
Wakkos Maniac (V) Mad Scientist From: Azylum's Secret Lab Insane since: Oct 2000	posted 07-24-2002 11:57 ERROR FOUND: fcontent[0]="<a href='#' '+mouseover+'>hola</a>" Is not single coute, it must be double quote: fcontent[0]="<a href='#' "+mouseover+">hola</a>"

Time ago we made something similar to this:
I have this script:

code:

<script language="JavaScript1.2">

<script language="JavaScript1.2">



var delay=100 //pausa (en milisegundos)

var fcontent=new Array()

begintag='<font face="Arial" size=2>' //tag que abre los mensajes

fcontent[0]="<a href='#'>hola</a>"

fcontent[1]="<a href='#'>hola 2</a>"

fcontent[2]="<a href='#'>hola 3</a>"

closetag='</font>'



var fwidth=150 //ancho

var fheight=150 //alto



///No editar/////////////////



var ie4=document.all&&!document.getElementById

var ns4=document.layers

var DOM2=document.getElementById

var index=0



if (DOM2)

faderdelay=100



//function to change content

function changecontent(){

if (index>=fcontent.length)

index=0

if (DOM2){

document.getElementById("fscroller").style.color="rgb(255,255,255)"

document.getElementById("fscroller").innerHTML=begintag+fcontent[index]+closetag



}

else if (ie4)

document.all.fscroller.innerHTML=begintag+fcontent[index]+closetag

else if (ns4){

document.fscrollerns.document.fscrollerns_sub.document.write(begintag+fcontent[index]+closetag)

document.fscrollerns.document.fscrollerns_sub.document.close()

}



index++

setTimeout("changecontent()",delay+faderdelay);

}





if (ie4&#0124; &#0124;DOM2)

document.write('<div id="fscroller" style="border:1px solid black;width:'+fwidth+';height:'+fheight+';padding:2px"></div>')

window.onload=changecontent

</script>

this change the content every time into the layer:
<ilayer id="fscrollerns" width=&{fwidth}; height=&{fheight};><layer id="fscrollerns_sub" width=&{fwidth}; height=&{fheight}; left=0 top=0></layer></ilayer>

Then, I want to make the script stops when the mouse is over, and i assigned the setTimeout("colorfade()",20); to a variable (tiempo=setTimeout("colorfade()",20)
Then to stop it I made a function:

code:

function detener()

{clearTimeout(tiempo)}

My problem is: I need to add the mouseover function into the array fcontent
And I'm makinng this:

code:

var delay=100 //pausa (en milisegundos)

var fcontent=new Array()

begintag='<font face="Arial" size=2>' //tag que abre los mensajes

fcontent[0]="<a href='#' onmuseover='detener();'>hola</a>"

fcontent[1]="<a href='#' onmuseover='detener();'>hola 2</a>"

fcontent[2]="<a href='#' onmuseover='detener();'>hola 3</a>"

closetag='</font>'

But seems not to work, then I thought:' Lets make the moseover part into a variable!, the problem could be the quotes (Singles and not double)'

And I made something like this:

code:

var  moseover=onmuseover="detener();"

begintag='<font face="Arial" size=2>' //tag que abre los mensajes

fcontent[0]="<a href='#' '+mouseover+'>hola</a>"

fcontent[1]="<a href='#' '+mouseover+'>hola 2</a>"

fcontent[2]="<a href='#' '+mouseover+'>hola 3</a>"

closetag='</font>'

But nothing happens!!!!!!
