Graham,

Two things:

1. In what browser are you experiencing your problems (I don't have
access to Linux, but it might help people who have it to help you).
2. Change your code to this:

<A HREF=3D"jframe1.htm" onMouseover=3D"display()" target=3D"_top" >Show
text</A>

=C4mne: [javascript_howto] javascript onmouseover and html frame 
problems
in linux


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=3D'Hello you!'; }

<A HREF=3D"jframe1.htm"
onMouseover=3D"javascript:display()" target=3D"_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:
        $ID=3D$myrow["ItemClassID"];
	$desc=3D$myrow["ItemClassDescription"];
        echo "<form action=3D\"displayitems.php \"method=3D\"get\">"; 
	echo "<a href=3D'displayitems.php'";
	echo "onMouseOver=3D";
	printf
("\"parent.right_frame.document.form2.image1.src=3D'../getdata_from_datab
a
se.
php? Item_ID=3D$ID'\"");
	echo "<input type=3Dsubmit width=3D\"10\" value=3D$desc
name=3D\"test\">";
	echo ("</td></Tr>");
	echo "</a>";
	echo "</form>";
