A client wants to incorporate some client-side active graphic
elements into the user interface of a new site.
It appears to beyond the standard manipulation of images and image
maps with JavaScript.
I want to download a composite image and then hide/reveal portions of
that image based on user actions. (Rather than download many small
images).
Think of a 10 x 10 matrix of color swatches as a composite image.
When user clicks on one swatch I want to display an addition image
that represents the user's selection only. In effect, I want to
redisplay only the selected cell of the same composite image, but in
another 1 x 1 box.
This approach avoids preloading 100 small images and/or going back to
the server for each selected option.
There are several options which must be selected this way (color, finish, etc).
There are aboout 40,000 product/option combinations
I have found some decent examples of Cross-Browser DHTML that
approximate the affects I seek... but they are Greek to me.
Can anyone recommend a good source for learning how to manipulate
graphic images with DHTML on both IE & NN.
TIA
Dick
