Roll over images not working

Post by taesl »

Trying to add a rollover image... here is my string that I need help with...

"<img src=diamond.gif border=0>&nbsp;&nbsp;LINKS","<"show-menu=link1 swapimage=arrow_over.gif",,,1

"<img src=diamond.gif border=0>&nbsp;&nbsp;LINKS", // section works fine!
"show-menu=link1 swapimage=arrow_over.gif",,,1 // section does not work!

String below works fine!... replacing the show-menu=link1 with insert link. // I use insert link as a reference point.
"<img src=diamond.gif border=0>&nbsp;&nbsp;LINKS","insert link swapimage=arrow_over.gif",,,1

I am open to suggestions....

I just posted this to another thread but i will copy it in case this is the one you are reading. Here is the syntax for having image roll overs work.

To have the menu item be a clickable link to a URL:
,"<img border=0 src=images/img.gif>&nbsp;milonic.co.uk",
"http://www.milonic.co.uk/ swapimage=/images/img_over.gif;",,,1

To have the menu item show a submenu:
,"<img border=0 src=images/img.gif>&nbsp;Web Tools",
"show-menu=qwebtools","# swapimage=/images/img_over.gif;",,0

Notice how to make it display a submenu you must put the swap image tag in the next area of commas (referred to as the Alternate URL section in the comments of the code) with a pound symbol and space placed before it.
