Switch Content Script II (icon based)

http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/switchcontent2.htm

Hi, I have set this script up but i cannot get the ajaxt bit to work.
I have

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/switchcontent.js" ></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/switchicon.js"></script>

<div class="eg-bar"><span id="faq1-title" class="iconspan"><img src="minus.gif" /></span>What is JavaScript?</div>
<div id="faq1" class="icongroup1">
</div>
<br />

<div class="eg-bar"><span id="faq2-title" class="iconspan"><img src="minus.gif" /></span>Difference between Java & JavaScript?</div>
<div id="faq2" class="icongroup1">
</div>
<br />



<script type="text/javascript">

var faq=new switchicon("icongroup1", "div") //Limit scanning of switch contents to just "div" elements

faq.setContent(0, 'xx.htm') //specify remote content for 1st header's content
faq.setContent(1, 'xxx.htm') //specify remote content for 2nd header's content

faq.setHeader('<img src="minus.gif" />', '<img src="plus.gif" />') //set icon HTML
faq.collapsePrevious(true) //Allow only 1 content open at any time
faq.setPersist(false) //No persistence enabled
faq.defaultExpanded(0) //Set 1st content to be expanded by default
faq.init()

</script>

but it doesnt seem to work. I have the two js scripts in the head. Do I need to adjust anything for the ajx to work, or do I need another js file? I cannot see a faq.setContent variable in the js files.
Thanks for any pointers.

Looks right at a glance. Make sure ''xx.htm" and "xxx.htm" exist and are in the same directory as the switch content script.

If you need more help, please post a link to the page on your site that contains the problematic script so we can check it out.

Hi thanks for the reply, I have the xx.htm and xxx.htm in the same folder as the js files but it doesnt seem to work.

Use this as switchcontent.js as the version you have is not the correct one:

Hope this helps.
