How do you use your own images on hover buttons? coz I already tried to use the code given on section 2 of Java Script and it didn't show. I had 2 images of my own already but when I previewed it, it only showed a gray box. What should I do?
PLEASE!!! I'd really appreciate your help... Anybody who knows how?
btw, I'm using Internet Explorer and not Netscape. So if you're wondering why that happens, it surely isn't because of my internet server/program, whichever you want to call it.
PLEASE!!! I really need your help...

Do you mean mouseover BUTTONS or mouseover IMAGES? It's hard to decipher from what you were saying ;)
did you upload the necessary files?
Yes, but still nothing's happening...
Do you mean mouseover BUTTONS or mouseover IMAGES?
Sorry for not making it clear. What I meant to say was mouseover images used as links.
Anyway, thanks for replying but I still need help with it.
Is it possible that my internet server/program doesn't allow me to use it or the hover thingy doesn't work on my internet server/program? But I'm using the Internet Explorer, how come it's not working?
I've done everything I needed to do. I've even read the instructions several times, already.
Thanks!

As long as you have a higher version of Internet Explorer (called a browser), it should work. Can you post the code you're using?
<applet code="fphover.class" codebase="../_fpclass/" width="92" height="44">
<param name="bgcolor" value="#99ccff">
<param name="url" value="http://www.geocities.com/deapadla/main.html" valuetype="ref">
<param name="image" value="graphics/home.jpg" valuetype="ref">
<param name="hoverimage" value="graphics/home2.jpg" valuetype="ref">
</applet>
That's exactly what i used but as I've mentioned it only showed a gray box. I didn't include the sound because I didn't have any. I already uploaded the unzipped .class files. I even uploaded the unzipped hover file (this is the file that I downloaded from Lissa Explains it All).
So, what did I miss? or what was my mistake?
Thanks for replying to all my messages, I really really appreciate it. Wish you could still help me...

euhm do you even know what a subdirectory is?
that's a folder that you make yourself in your space.
So you go into your main folder (the folde where you normally upload everything in) and you make a new folder in it called graphics in there you upload the graphics
There's no url for it, you need to do it yourself.
so this means:
graphics/home.jpg
that the image home.jpg is in a folder graphics in your main space. If you use geocities.com you should go to filemanager, then you go waaaaay down to "Subdirectories" and you click the button "new" below it. You fill in the name from the directory you want to create, and click "ok" or something like that. Now you go into that directory and you upload your graphics into that folder.
Love,
