Help creating anchor with image

[fedude]

I'm stumped. I've googled this until I lost consciousness and cannot find an answer. I'm trying to write a specific anchor/link depending upon the option selected from a drop-down list. The link from the image is to a pdf file. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Here is my code:

<script type="text/javascript">
function getScorecard(sel)
{
 
//create the scorecard node
var myA=document.createElement("A");
var myImg=document.createElement("IMG");
var url = "http://14holegolf.googlepages.com/Birecree-Contestable.pdf";
 
myA.setAttribute("href",url);
 
//create the image node
url = "http://14holegolf.googlepages.com/Birecree-Contestable.jpg";
var myImg=document.createElement("IMG");
myImg.setAttribute("src",url);
 
// Append the image node to the anchor
myA.setAttribute("img", myImg);
 
document.getElementById('targetDiv').appendChild(myA);
 
 
}
</script>
 
 <form action="" method="post">
     <table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="8" width="680">
         <tbody>
             <tr>
                 <td align="right"><b>Team:</b></td>
                 <td align="left"><select name="team" onchange="getScorecard(this)">
                     <option value="" selected>Select a team</option>
                     <option value="1">Option 1</option>
                     <option value="2">Option 2</option>
                    </select>
                </td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td colspan="3"> <div id="targetDiv"></div>
                </td>
            </tr>
        </tbody>
    </table>
</form>

Change line 18 to:

myA.appendChild(myImg);

You can get rid of either of lines 7 or 14 - one's redundant.

acoder,

Thanks that did the trick. Frustration level now lower....

I'm still not 100% clear why my solution didn't work. Apparently img is not an attribute of an anchor element???

[acoder]

Yes, that's correct. Look how it appears in HTML:

<a href="..."><img src="..."></a>

so img is a child of the anchor, not an attribute.

That clears it up. My stupidity. Thanks!

No problem, glad to help!
