referencing images with javascript

Hi i have the following code that works fine in firefox but not IE?

function imgLoad ()
{
test = new Image();
test = "../gfx/nav_es/areas_over.gif";
document.getElementById('test').src = test;
}

<body onLoad="imgLoad()">

<img src="../gfx/nav_es/humano_over.gif" name="test" id="test">

i have also tried

function imgLoad ()
{
test = new Image()
test = "../gfx/nav_es/areas_over.gif"
document.images['test'].src = test;
}

but with no result. I think it goes without saying i'm learning this for the first time.

any help would be greatly appriciated.

The problem is that you're assigning "test" to a new Image object, then RE-assigning "test" to "../gfx/nav_es/areas_over.gif". Something like this should fix your problem:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
function imgLoad ()

{

    var test = new Image();

    test.src = "../gfx/nav_es/areas_over.gif";

    document.images['test'].src = test.src;

}
