Lo all.

Working on a site atm, and struggling with this bit.

I am trying to set up a page, with an image in the centre, which has mouse on and mouse off properties, No problems there.

However, around the rest of the page I have buttons, the idea is you put your mouse over a button and the image in the centre now displays text relating to which button is hovered over.

Bit like a tv screen in the centre of the page, so the Oroginal image is over written by a new image the size taking the same space.

Imagine a page with 12 buttons and a picture in the middle, the picture is bog standard mouse on mouse off, but the buttons display a large text box the same size and in the same location as the original centre image.

So all graphics display in the same area..

Any ideas..

Or should i be thinking along the lines of embedding a square qith my page, which displays details from another page, or clipboard, so when people view the different images, the actually go to different pages, but appear in the box and look like a tv flicking channels.

Not an easy one this, all help appreciated.

Cheers..

Oh, using hot metal Pro 6 as the design program and to be used with IE and Netscape..

Check out the source code at

Its the site I looked through when I began learning Javascript, and the code for the rollovers is very well laid out. It includes an example of an image having multiple rollover images.
