Hi

Just need to pick someones brains really ....mouse overs are fairly straight
forward if you wanna swap the same size image but what if the mous eover image
you want to display is larger ?

I figured this out years ago and now cant remember for the life of me how to
do it ...I think you edit the script dreamweaver puts in...

So to recap ...small source image then mouse over to display a large
one...also can you re do the positioning on where the mouse over displays ?

You can do this many ways ways -

1. Don't use swap image - use Show/Hide layer instead. Have the alternate
image in a hidden layer that is shown when the trigger is 'tickled'. Using
this method you can have images that are any dimension.

2. Use swap image, but remove the dimensions from the original image's tag,
i.e., change this -

<img name="original" width="150" height="220" ...

to this -

<img name="original" ...

Now when you swap in your offsize image, there is no predefined size to
change it to. Be aware that this method may well result in an unpleasant
and undesirable 'rearrangement' of your page layout as it adjusts to your
new image's dimensions.

3. Pad the smaller image with canvas background color on all sides so that
all the images *are the same size*.

4. Use a SetText behavior to change the image reference in a container on
the page so that it will show the desired larger image in the proper place.
You can see an example here -

5. Use the PVII ShowPic extension - http://www.projectseven.com/

Take your pick....
