Hover Button's is not working???

[krnaveen]

Hi! Friends,
I tried calling an ASP page on the click of the Hover Button using Frontpage 2000. I have tried using the URL property of it, using functions in javascript and then calling it on the click method of the Button, but in vain. Am currently working with the Submit button only, which is working fine.
Could any one of you kindly help me out with the same at the earliest.
Thanks and have fun coding.

My code was:-


<script language="javascript">
function calling()
{
document.form.action="http://localhost/jewel/account.asp"
}
</script>

<applet code="fphover.class" codebase="./" width="120" height="24">
<param name="color" value="#000080">
<param name="hovercolor" value="#0000FF">
<param name="textcolor" value="#FFFFFF">
<param name="text" value="Submit">
<param name="effect" value="glow">
<param name="url" value=calling()>
</applet>

Re: Hover Button's is not working???

Instead of using a fuction to enter a known value, why not just use the value???

Dear QuackHead,
Thanks for ur reply. But have tried that also, it isn't working. After this only I shifted to the function method. If u could try out and check where my fault lies. Thanks for your co-operation.

Where did you get the applet from? (I don't use java applets at all - so I'm not familiar with this one)

Wherever you got the applet, say from a download site, there should be detailed instructions on how to use it's parameters.

There's really not much I can help you with, so hopefully the site where you got the applet from will have some troubleshooting FAQs

Dear QuackHead,
Am using Frontpage 2000. There in the Insert menu, followed by Component submenu, you have the option of inserting Hover Button. I got it from there. The Applet code is generated automatically. Thanks again.

Did you try that? Dunno if that will help. You try looking through the FrontPage help?

Considering that it is from MS and it was packaged with FP, it most likely wasn't designed with that functionality in mind.
