Hi to all...

i have the following code in a table...
code:
*********************************************
<td bgcolor="045C97" align="CENTER">
<a onMouseover="Mens.src='/MenS01.jpg';MainMens.src='/MenB01.jpg'"
onMouseout="Mens.src='/MenS01.jpg'" width="100" height="80">
<img src="/MenS01.jpg" border="1" name="Mens" width="100" height="80"></a><br>
<a onMouseover="Mens.src='/MenS02.jpg';MainMens.src='/MenB02.jpg'"
onMouseout="Mens.src='/MenS02.jpg'" width="100" height="80">
<img src="/MenS02.jpg" border="1" name="Mens" width="100" height="80"></a><br>
</td>

<td align="CENTER" bgcolor="FFFFFF" >

<img SRC="MainMen.jpg" name="MainMens" width="500" height="400">
</td>

<td bgcolor="045C97" align="center" >

<a onMouseover="Mens.src='/MenS07.jpg';MainMens.src='/MenB07.jpg'"
onMouseout="Mens.src='/MenS07.jpg'" width="100" height="80">
<img src="/MenS07.jpg" border="1" name="Mens" width="100" height="80"></a><br>
<a onMouseover="Mens.src='/MenS08.jpg';MainMens.src='/MenB08.jpg'"
onMouseout="Mens.src='/MenS08.jpg'" width="100" height="80">
<img src="/MenS08.jpg" border="1" name="Mens" width="100" height="80"></a><br>
</td>
*******************************************
what I'm trying to figure out is when i mouse over an image i want to read from my DB and get the description so i can make it appear on top of the big image...

to open and read data from the DB is no problem...

i having trouble on how to store the value in the mouseover code...

Hope someone can help me...

thanking you in advance...

It depends on what your intent is. If you want to access the database when you mouse over the images you will need to use AJAX to return the data and then display it however you want.

Alternatively, if you are generating the links via some server side code, you could create a javascript function on your page that takes two values:

function displayImage(imgSrc, imgDescription)
{
//set img
//set description
}

then change your server side script so that your links would look like this:

onMouseover="displayImage('/MenS07.jpg', 'Some description')"

does that make sense?

maybe i didn't explain myself right...

I have the following code the works perfect...
Set rs = connHartStores.Execute("sp_GetAllMultipleSigncards '" & Request.QueryString("PromoID") & "'")

If not rs.eof Then
Do until rs.eof

<TD VALIGN="TOP" class="PromoDetail">Flyer Signcards<A HREF="/AllSizes.asp?PromoSize=" rs("PromoSize") &PromoID= rs("PromoID") > server.HTMLEncode(rs("PromoSize")) & </A></TD>
<TD align="middle"><A HREF="/Sizes.asp?PromoSize=" & rs("PromoSize") & "&PromoID=" & rs("PromoID") & ></A></TD>

But this works when I click on it, it gets the info I need from my DB...

I would like to do the same think but with my onmouseover...

Is there a way I can do this...

Thanking you in advance...

Yes. I think what you are looking for is something similar to this:

and the Google SERP found that link on:

hth.
