If you view the source you might see that your MM_swapimage()
MM_preloadimage() etc functions are repeated over and over and over and over.
I've had problems with rollover and MM_swapimage() type functions
before. I counselled a much simpler method of rollover images using the
names of the graphic files to select the image, ie corenameOn corenameOff,
it saves all that tedious mucking about with arrays (where the problem is).
