JS in FireFox

Shahin · Mar 4, 2007

Hi,

The following code works fine in IE, but in Firefox it does not:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" > 
function changeImage(filename,image_id)
{
mainimage.src = filename;
document.getElementById("img1").style.visibility = "hidden";
document.getElementById("img2").style.visibility = "hidden";
document.getElementById(image_id).style.visibility = "visible";
}
</script>

<body>
<div id="img1" class="images_caption"
style="visibility:visible">Hello1</div>
<div id="img2" class="images_caption">Hello2</div>

<div class="images_zoom" >
<img name="mainimage" src="images/jewellery/1.jpg">
</div>

<div class="images_list">
<a href="#" onclick="changeImage('images/jewellery/1.jpg','img1')" >

<img src="images/jewellery/thumb_2.jpg"/></a>

</div>
</body>

Could you please help me to correct the code to become FF
compatible?

Best regards
Shahin

There is a thread, right now, that is discussing this very issue. You
have fallen into the IE trap of ID'es becoming global variables.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" > 
function changeImage(filename,image_id)
{
mainimage.src = filename;

document.images['mainimage'].src = filename;

compatible?

"FF compatible"? Why not strive to write cross-browser compatible code?
