Hi, I know how to use javascript to change a background image to
another background image, and how to change a background colour to
another background colour. Is there a way to change an image to a
backgound colour?
I have a table with a background that has a picture. When the user
hovers over the picture I want the background to change to the
background colour of the rest of the page, as if to make the picture
disappear.
Cheers,
Dave
This worked in IE6. Didn't test it in any other browsers.
<html>
<head>
<title> New Document </title>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function changeIt(el,w)
{
if (w=="image")
{
el.style.background="url(warning.gif)";
el.style.backgroundColor="transparent";
}
else
{
el.style.background="";
el.style.backgroundColor="red";
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
