Need code

[quadc281]

Several years ago I found a code that used 2 images. It was what I guess would possibly be called mouse over effect. There is 1 image showing and when you put the mouse over that image it changed to another image. similar to a button that when the mouse is over it, it changed to look like it was depressed. I used this code for links in a specific section of my site. Does anyone know what this code is called or where I can find it, as I lost my copy of the code and would like to use it again. Hope someone understands what I'm talking about.


Thanks for any help

There are many such scripts available around the web. They are generally known as rollovers. The DD version is:

Without using any formal script, a single rollover could be done like so:


<img src="off.gif"
onmouseover="this.src='on.gif';"
onmouseout="this.src='off.gif';><img
style="position:absolute;visibiity:hidden;"
src="on.gif">

The second image tag takes up no space and is invisible. It is only there to 'preload' the rollover image. There are other methods of preloading.

Many types and many ways. If you don't want to use JavaScript there are pure CSS ways to do it as well.

I have outlined a couple ways of doing it on a test site of mine.
