Hi guys,
I currently have a function that gets called when someone clicks a link.


<a onclick="javascript:changestatus(1);" href="#"><b>Go Online</b></a> <img id="changestatus" src="Images/icons/flag_red.png">

What kind of javascript do i need to add to my function changestatus that would change the image when the link is clicked.

I want to change the image to flag_yellow.png when the link above is clicked.

I would assume it would be summat like.
document.changestatus.src="Images/icons/flag_yellow.png"

But nothing happens?

Any ideas?

Thanks

add a name attribute of "changestatus"

Ah ha that works.

Would i be better off using the GetElementById if i name something by id?
ie:
document.GetElementById("somename").src="blaa";

Rather than what ive done with
document.somename.src?

Am I using an outdated method?
Ive been using JS for years on and off so i feel that i may sometimes still be doing things wrong "just to get it working"




Thanks

either method is fine. getElementById() is now officially part of the W3c DOM spec so is "acceptable" to use, and you won't have the "DOM Police" harrassing you.

Hahah DOM Police " i havent ran into them yet lol "

Thanks for your help.

All working perfectly.
