Manual Scroller killing my other Javascript!

[djobrien]

Hi,
I've been trying to make the manual scroller code work on a page that has other javascript rollovers, but the manual scroller uses javascript 1.2, which causes my other mouseovers to not work. Can't seem to get this no matter how hard I try..

Does anyone know the answer to this problem? Thanks..

Scripts are only designed to be used 1 per page due to name clashes.

As a general rule, 1 per page. It's hard to make conflicting scripts work again, it takes both time and effort.

Actually I have been having this problem as well.
What I have learnt is that scripts that call the "onload" function conflict. Place all onload function in one place e.g.body tag.

Actually the professor is right, name conflicts in various javascript does pose problems
