I want the text to change from gray to bright red when the mouse is moved over the name of our company. Here is the code that doesn't work. What do I need to change to make this work? -
function mouseOver(){
-
document.getElementById('unitedBrokers').style.font="size='2' face='Arial color='#FF0000'";
-
}// mouseOver()
-
-
function mouseOut(){
-
document.getElementById('unitedBrokers').style.font="size='2' face='Arial color='#808080'";
-
}// mouseOut()
-
-
<a id="unitedBrokers" onmouseover="mouseOver()" onmouseout="mouseOut()" style="text-decoration: none">United Brokers Incorporated</a>

your CSS declaration (syntax) is wrong.
you could avoid javascript (except for IE) by using the CSS pseudo-class :hover. - #unitedBrokers:hover {
-
font-family: Arial;
-
/* more settings go here */
-
}
you can also enhance your code by using the "this" keyword: - <a id="unitedBrokers">United Brokers Incorporated</a>
-
<script type="text/javascript">
-
function mouseOver()
-
{
-
this.style.font = "Arial";
-
}
-
function mouseOut()
-
{
-
this.style.font = "Helvetica"; // just as example
-
}
-
var ub = document.getElementById('unitedBrokers');
-
ub.addEventListener("mouseover", mouseOver, false);
-
ub.addEventListener("mouseout", mouseOut, false);
-
</script>
When I tried your second example I got the error "ub" is null or not an object. -
ub.addEventListener("mouseover", mouseOver, false);
-
-
Any idea what's wrong?
Here is exactly what I put in the header -
<script type="text/javascript">
-
function mouseOver(){
-
this.style.font.color = "#FF0000";
-
}
-
function mouseOut(){
-
this.style.font.color = "#808080";
-
}
-
var ub = document.getElementById('unitedBrokers');
-
ub.addEventListener("mouseover", mouseOver, false);
-
ub.addEventListener("mouseout", mouseOut, false);
-
</script>

yup, you tried to access an element, that was not yet loaded. you need to wait 'til the page finished loading.
How do I do wait until the page is loaded?

Recognized Expert Moderator Expert @andersond - window.addEventListener("load", chainLoader, false);
-
// chainLoader() (custom function) holds all functions executed at start-up
The error this time is "chainLoade r not defined.
Dormilich 8,658

as said in the hint "(custom function)" you have to define chainLoader() yourself.
Woops! My brain is asleep
This line: -
window.addEventListener("load", chainLoader, false);
-
produced this error:
'object doesn't support this property or method'
Here is my chainLoader() function: -
function chainLoader(){
-
mouseOver();
-
mouseOut();
-
document.screenOne.pState.focus();
-
}
-
I placed it in the opening line of the body -
<body topmargin="0" onLoad="chainLoader()" style="text-align: right">
-
and this line -
this.style.font.color = "#FF0000";
-
produced the error: 'this.style.fon t" is null or not an object

Hope someone in the big wide world can help...
What I want to do is have an image slideshow which automatically
scrolls through a series of images very fast, then pauses when you
move your mouse over the image. The images will flick through (at a
rate of about 5 per second) then pause when the user onMouseOver's.
Any help would be gratefully received.

I know I can have like <a href="#" onclick="dothis" onmouseover="dothat">
But how do you properly code two mouseover's in one statement?
<a href="#" onmousever="dothis" onmouseover="dothat">
As an example of use:
Column A holds menu items.
When a mouse over is performed, two actions take place instead of one.
Action one sends an image to a division in column B, action two sends text
to another division in column B.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
