I did.
This is what I tried from the suggestion:
<div id="myDiv" nowrap class='thumbnails'>
// my code to list thumbnails images.
</div>
<img src="right_arrow.gif" onmouseover="document.getElementById('myDiv').scro llBy(200,0)">
Since then I have found a much more detailed method, which seems quite complicated. I am on the verge of getting it to work except
I cant get the following code to work:
if (direction == "rt" && x_pos > max_posn)
{
page.left = (x_pos - (speed));
}
Where max_posn is the maximum position to scroll a div layer to then stop. It works if I enter an actual value, but when assigned
to a variable (and even parseInt() the variable) it doesn't work. I assign it to a variable because the max_posn variable is
calculated from the number of thumbnails so I cant just put a value in there.
Here's the full (very long) code. A shorter version would be great.
<head>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function horScroll(dir, spd, loop, max_posn)
{
max_posn = -1*max_posn; // to produce an integer in case it thinks its a string. I have also used parseInt();
loop = true;
direction = "lt";
speed = 10;
scrolltimer = null;
if (document.layers)
{
var page = eval(document.contentLayer);
}
else
{
if (document.getElementById)
{
var page= eval("document.getElementById('contentLayer').styl e");
}
else
{
if (document.all)
{
var page = eval(document.all.contentLayer.style);
}
}
}
direction = dir;
speed = parseInt(spd);
var x_pos = parseInt(page.left);
if (loop == true)
{
if (direction == "rt" && x_pos > max_posn) // THIS DOES NOT WORK WITH max_posn BUT DOES WORK WITH A NUMBER
{
page.left = (x_pos - (speed));
}
else
{
if (direction == "lt" && x_pos < 0)
{
page.left = (x_pos + (speed));
}
else
{
if (direction == "left")
{
page.left = 10;
}
}
}
scrolltimer = setTimeout("horScroll(direction,speed)", 1);
}
}
function stopScroll()
{
loop = false;
clearTimeout(scrolltimer);
}
</script>
</head>
<div nowrap class='thumbnails'>
<div id="contentLayer" style="position:absolute; width:300px; z-index:1; lt: 39px; left: 51px">
// code to show thumbnails here
</div>
</div>

I believe there should be a . after the document, but this didn't work
either.
Maybe you should put *yours* "DIV name" instead of myDiv. Let us see your
piece of code.
