Note: for week #2

The section:
Using Functions

Should read:

Now anywhere we want to set the status bar to a blank, we 'call' the function by using it's name and a set of parentheses:
In the <BODY>:

[js] <a href="javascript:void('')" onMouseOver="noStatus(); return true;"> Mouse Over </a> [/js]

Hello.

I finished the basic assignment a little over a day or so and have been working on the image rollover one. I wanted to post both of them but having some difficulty with the advanced assignment.

Here's the first (basic) version:
--------------------------------------------

<html>
<head>
<title>Week #1 assignment</title>
<style type="text/css">

</style>
</head>

<body bgcolor="#FFF8DC">
<center>
<table width="100%" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">
<tr>
<td width="100%">
<span class="w">
Welcome all to the most basic page you will ever find on the net.
</span>
<br><br>
The following link will bring you to a site that will show you who RJ is.
<br>
Please not that the site sometimes is slow so please be patient, Click on the link to begin:
<a href="http://forum.ytunnelpro.com/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=51"
onMouseOver="window.status='Come and see RJ'; return true;"
onMouseOut="window.status=''; return true;"
onClick="alert('Are you ready? Good, now click OK.');">RJ</a>
</a>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>
</body>
</html>
--------------------------------------------

Should I post what I have for the advanced part of assignment 1? I'm not getting the rollovers to take effect, plus I'm unsure of how to combine window.status and the document,<name>.src into a workable statement.

Thanks for your time.

RJ

onmousedown and onmouseup are NOT for universal browser code!!! They are PROPRIETARY and are typically ONLY available in microsoft browsers and clones!
They were not discussed in this course, only listed in one of the charts... If You are going to use these event handlers, You should first do a browser check to make sure your surfers are using microsoft browsers... otherwise your scripts won't work properly and can cause some systems to 'hang'...
Use onClick instead!!!
Please see my full post and further suggestions on this issue in the forum for week #1 advanced assignments.

Thank You

Just letting You all know that I still check these forums to help You and to answer Your questions... I realize that many people just read the lessons and learn from there without doing the assignments... The main thing is that these classes are here to help you! TDavid continues to keep this site free, paying for it out of his own pocket, a note of thanks to him wouldn't be out of line...
