javascript_howto thread: javascript onmouseover and html frame problems in linux


Message #1 by "Graham Thurman" <g.thurman@u...> on Tue, 8 Oct 2002 15:06:01
I am having problems using the onmouseover command in linux. The same code 
works fine in windows.Below in a simple example of what is not working:

...some code missing...

function display() 
{ 
parent.right_frame.document.form1.textbox1.value='Hello you!';
}

<A HREF="jframe1.htm" 
onMouseover="javascript:display()" target="_top" >Show text</A>

...some code missing...

I am currently adding hyperlinks to submit buttons in order to use the 
onmouseover command to display different images from a database and pass 
values from the database at the same time to the next page. The code I am 
using is below. If solving the simple solution above will solve the one 
below then thanks. Otherwise, do you have any thoughts on the code below 
in a linux browser?

The script below is used in a while loop to generate buttons, each one 
displaying the name of the item in the database, and carrying a unique 
value:
        $ID=$myrow["ItemClassID"];
	$desc=$myrow["ItemClassDescription"];
        echo "<form action=\"displayitems.php \"method=\"get\">";  
	echo "<a href='displayitems.php'";
	echo "onMouseOver=";
	printf
("\"parent.right_frame.document.form2.image1.src='../getdata_from_database.
php? Item_ID=$ID'\"");
	echo "<input type=submit width=\"10\" value=$desc name=\"test\">";
	echo ("</td></Tr>");
	echo "</a>";
	echo "</form>";
