Got a problem, which only occurs in IE Mac 5.2, with using the
onload function in an HTML <BODY> tag, any suggestions how I might
be able to get around it?
I suspect your Mac IE is firing the onload just fine, but the value
you give to it is confusing it. Test to make sure the onload is
firing by adding an alert('fired'); to the function before any other
code.
I suspect your problem is that Mac IE does not want the quotes around
the url value. You have:
document.getElementById("masthead").style.backgroundImage = "url
('" + bgimage + "')";
...which expands to (say):
document.getElementById("masthead").style.backgroundImage = "url
('images/header1.jpg')";
...but those single quotes are fouling things up. Try this instead:
document.getElementById("masthead").style.backgroundImage = "url
(" + bgimage + ")";
