Shaking faster

[sakalodi]

1) Script Title: Shake Image Script

2) Script URL (on DD):
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex4/shake.htm

3) Describe problem:
When using this script with with multiple images without any space in between, the shaking goes faster and faster. Probably the setTimeout is adding up or something??

Is there a way to "update" this script so that the shaking is going the same speed all the time? The problem is also there on the script-url. Just move your mouse from one pic to another a few times.

Thanks.

Hmm... It appears there needs to be a clearTimeout() somewhere in there.

Hi Mike,

Thanks.

The setTimeout is in function rattleimage...

setTimeout("rattleimage()",50)

Gr, Sandy

Make the setTimeout() a variable:

var time = setTimeout("rattleimage()",50)

and set the image's onmouseout event handler like this:

<img onmouseout="clearTimeout(time)">

[blm126]

var time = setTimeout("rattleimage()",50)

will probably need to be just

time = setTimeout("rattleimage()",50)

Meh... Lol

Yes, it works!
Thank you, thank you!
