I have a client that I have just completed a site for at
http://www.symepiano.com/ (features RealAudio and MP3 sound files, he's a
musician. Note: I did not write the copy for this site! :)
On the left side of every page is a column of navigation links with a
rollover so that when you pass your cursor over the link a small musical
note pops up to the left of the link. Pretty routine stuff. Except that my
client, who is on AOL, says he doesn't see the rollover. He is not very
sophisticated about web matters but claims that he just downoladeded the
latest AOL software and it doesn't show up.
I asked a friend of mine who is on AOL is she could see the rollover, and
she can't. I am simply amazed that current AOL browsers cannot see this,
but I know very little about them. Has AOL disabled the javascript
capability in their browser? (I know their browser is based on MSIE which
of course can handle these simple rollovers, I can see it using MSIE) Or is
their a setting in the AOL browser that has to be turned on for javascript?
If this has anything to do with the browser detect function in the
javascript I'm using for the rollover, here's the complete script:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE = "JavaScript">
BN = navigator.appName;
BV = parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
V = "n3";
if (BN == "Netscape" && BV >= 3) V = "n3";
else if (BN == "Microsoft Internet Explorer" && BV >= 4) V = "n3";
else V = "n2";
if (V == "n3") {
arrowon = new Image(10, 18);
arrowon.src = "../images/note-bullet.gif";
arrowoff = new Image(10, 18);
arrowoff.src = "../images/note-spacer.gif";
}
function img_onarrow(imgName) {
if (V == "n3") {
arrowOn = arrowon.src;
document [imgName + "_arrow"].src = arrowOn;
}
}
function img_offarrow(imgName) {
if (V == "n3") {
arrowOff = arrowoff.src;
document [imgName + "_arrow"].src = arrowOff;
}
}
</script>
Thanks to anyone who can assist with making this rollover visible to AOL users.
