javascript for roll-over images doesn't seem to end in FireFox?

[Leythos]

I have a site at http://www.bhlnet.net/opep, it's template site for
testing, it uses roll-over images that are setup/controlled by javascript.
I've just noticed that the pages seem to be stuck with READ/Waiting in the
status message. When I use IE I don't see the READ/Waiting.

If I remove the js I don't see it, if I refresh the page and don't hold
the mouse over any button I don't see it, I've tested with virgin code....

Any ideas?

Dump the javascript rollovers and go to CSS rollovers that'll solve
your problem and make your site work faster and code much cleaner.

I have never used roll overs, and since the code was auto-generated by
DreamWeaver MX I expected it to work. I'll look up CSS rollovers and see
what I can do wit them - thanks.

While I appreciate the thought, there are still many sites that use
frames, and frames are still supported in the browsers across the board. I
had already planned on doing includes and dropping the frames, but I had
not completed the transition at the time I noticed the js problem.

Ok, so I've figured out how to make the same effect by making the menu
text transparent, but it also means that I have to have a clean font,
can't use a font with smoothing or the css colors don't show through.

So, I can take my Photoshop Button templates, remove the second text
layer, change the first text layer to black text, screen it, and use no
smoothing - this makes the the text change colors the same way that my
dual graphics did. I did not update the site I referenced above, I just
did a couple tests to determine how to make it work.

I guess this means I'm going to have to learn CSS now :)
