simple onmouseover className change fails

[Tarantulus]

Hi guys,

I have the following simple function which errors in IE6

function changecss(id,class){
document.getElementById(id).className = class;
}
 

and in the HTML I have

onmouseover="changecss(this.id,'hover');"

I can't see why it's not working, perhaps I can't see the wood for the trees...

can you assist?

Thanks in advance

What is the rest of the HTML for the tag calling that function? Is the ID attribute being set?

To make this simpler I would just pass the elment it self instead of the elements ID attribute.

function changecss(el,class){
    el.className = class;
}
 

onmouseover="changecss(this,'hover');"
