JavaScript - Regarding Mouse Pointer

So i've written up the code to do a lightbox esque overlay image gallery. everything is working smooth and fine. The only concern is that I have the following:

lets say that I have a page that has multiple galleries. Obviously I would have to make each literal array with the gallery data different names, ex:

Code:

var _gallery1 = {
	'images': [
		{ 'id' : 1, 'src' : "" }
	]
}

var _gallery2 = {
	'images': [
		{ 'id' : 1, 'src' : "" }
	]
}

or would it be easier to do it multi dimensional?

Code:

var gallery_data = {
	'gallery1': [
		'images': [
			{ 'id' : 1, 'src' : "" }
		]
	]
	'gallery2': [
		'images': [
			{ 'id' : 1, 'src' : "" }
		]
	]
}

regardless of which direction I use... my main question is this:

I have two variables which are the following:

Code:

galVariable = (i = location.hash.match(/#set=(.+)&photo=(\d+)/)) ? i[1] : null;
galArray    = _gallery2.images;

I'm unfamiliar with a way of doing something along the lines of this, and having it actually work:

Code:

galVariable = (i = location.hash.match(/#set=(.+)&photo=(\d+)/)) ? i[1] : null;
galArray    = galVariable.images;

obviously "galVariable" would be undefined... as i'm trying to get "_gallery2.images" but trying to use "galVariable" to point to "_gallery2"

I'm familiar with solving a problem like this in PHP, not so much javascript. is there a JS function that can be used to ensure that it's using whatever "galVariable" equals to, and then that array's content is? Or is there a different way to go on about this.

thanks in advance. if anyone needs some more clarification. please feel free to ask, and I'll respond asap.

I wrote this code for 1 image, and it is working perfectly fine:

Code:

function swapImage()

				{
					document.getElementById("linkedin").src = "images/glinkedin.png";
				}

function restoreImage()

				{
					document.getElementById("linkedin").src = "images/linkedin.png";
				}

the problem starts when I want to use this code for 4 images, can anyone correct it please:

Code:

function swapImage()

				{
					document.getElementById("linkedin").src = "images/glinkedin.png";
				}


				{
					document.getElementById("facebook").src = "images/gfacebook.png";
				}


				{
					document.getElementById("google").src = "images/ggoogle.png";
				}


				{
					document.getElementById("twitter").src = "images/gtwitter.png";
				}

function restoreImage()

				{
					document.getElementById("linkedin").src = "images/linkedin.png";
				}

				{
					document.getElementById("facebook").src = "images/facebook.png";
				}

				{
					document.getElementById("google").src = "images/google.png";
				}

				{
					document.getElementById("twitter").src = "images/twitter.png";
				}

How to mouse over the image then the words will appear below it?

Hi I have a requirement....I have a timer on a page. If the user leave the page (mouse goes off of that page) the timer starts and continues...and when the user comes into that page(mouse over that page) the timer goes off/STOP....Is this can be done?? using javascript???
pls help...

I have a pop-up message box, that I'd like help changing to a mouse-over message box.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Code:

<style>
.msg { display:block; position:absolute; top:300px;
left:300px; width:350px; background-color:#eeeeff; border-style:solid;
border-width:1px; padding:15px 20px 5px 20px; }
.msgclose { text-decoration:none; font-size:0.9em;
font-variant:small-caps; margin-top:10px; }
</style>

<div id="popupMsg" class="msg">
You must read this message.<br>
This is a test message box <br />
<div style="width:100%; text-align:right;">

<a class="msgclose" href="#" onclick="document.getElementById('popupMsg').style.display = 'block';
return false;"><font color="#800000">Close Window</font></a>
</div>

background:

display 3-4 pictures and a generic parargraph. when you mouseover a picture the parargragh changes to the bio of the person pictured and doesn't change until a different picture is mouseovered or a reset butten is clicked.

current code:
i have adapted some code I found (thank you, donator) to basicly hide and unhide a span ID on mouseover. if functions as i want but the element id is hardcoded and i would like it to be dynamic on mouse location. not being that familair w/ coding and / or javascript; i'm stuck.
Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
   var el;
   var cpic; //elementId via mouse position
window.onload=function() {
   el=document.getElementById('pic1');
   el.onmouseover=function() {
   changeText('hide','show')
 }
   
 }
function changeText(cl1,cl2) {
   document.getElementById('span1').className=cl1;
   document.getElementById('span2').className=cl2;
}
</script>

so the above works for 1 image, but as you can see "pic1" is hard coded. i figured i could define "cpic" to takes it's place, but i'm not sure how to get the elementId (i'm assuming it would be from the mouse position). if the above code is totaly the wrong approach let me know. it was just the first thing i found that seemed to do what i needed.

on the HTML side "span1" is the default text and "span2" is the hidden mouseover text. i'm assuming that by adding 2 more pictures i'll need to add "span3" and "span4".
i'll also have to find a way of hiding the other spans. I.E. if i go from pic2 to pic3 then, the pic2 text will have to be hidden before pic3 text is displayed.

one thing i don't want to do is restrict the mouse to be focused on the picture to display the text. the text should change only when another picture is in focus or the rest button is clicked.

any direction / suggestions would be a big help.

I just want to know :

is it possible to make the mouse be at a given position on the screen using javascript for example i am writing a element resize script and i would like to have it so when u click on the resize button the cursor moves to the bottom right corner of the element for the starting position

Hey CodingFourm-ites!


Ive scoured the internet for scripts that make a <div> follow the mouse, and have found one that seems to work well. However, I want the <div> to stop moving when the CTRL or the SHIFT key is pressed, I dont care which. Hopefully, I can have a div that follows the mouse at an offset that contains some click-able items, so a menu is always by your mouse. Ive tried now more than a few times to put together a piece of code that can achieve this, but none have worked. Can somebody write a script that can achieve this, or point me in the right direction?

Thanks guys!

Current JS for mouse follow:

Code:

var divName = 'mouseFollow'; // div that is to follow the mouse
                       // (must be position:absolute)
var offX = 15;          // X offset from mouse position
var offY = 15;          // Y offset from mouse position

function mouseX(evt) {if (!evt) evt = window.event; if (evt.pageX) return evt.pageX; else if (evt.clientX)return evt.clientX + (document.documentElement.scrollLeft ?  document.documentElement.scrollLeft : document.body.scrollLeft); else return 0;}
function mouseY(evt) {if (!evt) evt = window.event; if (evt.pageY) return evt.pageY; else if (evt.clientY)return evt.clientY + (document.documentElement.scrollTop ? document.documentElement.scrollTop : document.body.scrollTop); else return 0;}

function follow(evt) {if (document.getElementById) {var obj = document.getElementById(divName).style; obj.visibility = 'visible';
obj.left = (parseInt(mouseX(evt))+offX) + 'px';
obj.top = (parseInt(mouseY(evt))+offY) + 'px';}}
document.onmousemove = follow;

Hi there,

I am looking for a javascript code for an html file. I am looking for something where when you put your mouse over the text, a drop down list will come down. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be helpful.

An example would be on a site like www.espn.com - when you put your mouse over NBA the following options appear: NBA Home, Scores, Schedule, Teams, etc.

I'm wondering if theirs a way to make a dim light, sorta like a candle follow my mouse cursor on a webpage?

Hello everyone, I'm looking for a javascript script that will load a small image where the mouse is, then it would go away after a couple seconds.

Thanks a bunch!
