Whats wrong with this??

the idea being that imageA appears first, then onclick imageB appears, and onclick again, imageA appears. No mousevers,mouseouts, etc, just clickys! (I'm going to give a variable a value on each click too.. but I'll add that once I get the changing image working!)

Getting the syntax wrong though :-(

code:

<html>

<head>



<script language="JavaScript1.1">



function ChangeIt() {



if (document.images["Image1"].src="choose_B.gif")

then {

document.images["Image1"].src="choose_A.gif"}

else {

document.images["Image1"].src="choose_B.gif"

}

}



</script>

</head>

<body>



<a href="#" onclick="ChangeIt();">

<img src="choose_A.gif" name="Image1" border=0>

</a>



</body>

</html>

There is no "then" statement in JavaScript.

if (document.images["Image1"].src="choose_B.gif")
then {
document.images["Image1"].src="choose_A.gif"}

Therefore, you should remove it...

Still no joy, even without the "then"..

code:

function ChangeIt() {



if (document.images["Image1"].src=="choose_B.gif")

document.images["Image1"].src="choose_A.gif"}

else {

document.images["Image1"].src="choose_B.gif"

}

}

pete, i just tested your code myself and i found out, that it doesnt work, because it cant test for the source.
so the if-statement doesnt really work.

do you really need it? i mean you know anyways which sourcefile the image has at the beginning.

Yes, I need this kind of functionallity.. I assumed the if/else thing was the way to do it.. how else can I achieve the same effect?

maybe with a variable switching from true to false;

set this in the body or after the JS-function in the script.
onload="switcher=true;"

then in your if statement:
if (switcher==true){
document.images["Image1"].src="choose_A.gif";
switcher=false;
} else {
document.images["Image1"].src="choose_B.gif";
switcher=true;
}

edit: damn, ini was faster! i should improve my typing speed.
