Rollover HTML

shane

Does anyone have a rollover function that will drop different text or html tages into a page? For example if you were to create a menu and each menu item would new text/html in a specific area of the web page.

If anyone knows of anything like this, please help me ... Thanks!

hi i have used something like that before, if iv used is what i think what u what.

although the 1 iv got uses a drop down menu to change html on a page. the page will load with the one in the number 1 slot and when changed the html what was there will be replaced with the html that corresponds to the option selected in the menu.

the javascript needed is below (NOTE --this must be placed below the code for the menu that is used to change the html other wise it will not function:

var textdisplay=new Array()
textdisplay[0]="html displayes in here with option 1 selected"
textdisplay[1]="html displayes in here with option 2 selected"
textdisplay[2]="html displayes in here with option 3 selected"
textdisplay[3]="html displayes in here with option 4 selected"
textdisplay[4]="html displayes in here with option 5 selected"

function displaydesc(which){
if (document.all)
descriptions.innerHTML=textdisplay[which]
else if (document.getElementById)
document.getElementById("descriptions").innerHTML=textdisplay[which]
}

displaydesc(document.choosecat.selectcat.selectedIndex)

document.choosecat.selectcat.options[0].selected=true

this is a menu that will interact with the javascript above:

<select name="selectcat" size="1" class="searchinput" onChange="displaydesc(document.choosecat.selectcat.selectedIndex)">
<option>Caption1</option>
<option>Caption2</option>
<option>Caption3</option>
<option>Caption4</option>
<option>Caption5</option>
</select>

this is the place where the html will be placed when selected from the menu:

this works perfectly for what i wanted to do i hope it can help u

good luck
