converting JS image swap to php

[Richard]

Considering the elemtary image swap routine in javascript:

document.name.s rc="filename.gi f"

How would this be translated into PHP?
So that if a visitor has js turned off, clicking on a thumbnail would show
the larger image.

Do you mean this?

<a href="foo.gif"> <img src="foo_t.gif" ></a>

No I do not. What I need to do is to put the larger image into a specific
division on the same page. NO NEW WINDOWS!
As in the manner brucie did the butterflies.
But the method must also conform to the script I'm using.

What makes you think my code will open a new window?

If you mean you don't want to load a new document... Since PHP is
server-side, if you want to use it to change the contents of current page
you must reload the page. Or part of it (iframes and the like).

Definitively you must use frames o iframes. In any case, nothing to do with
PHP.

Well, it ain't gonna be in php. php runs on the server and provides
output for pages. That output can be HTML or Javascript or whatever.

I think you're describing a Javascript that does image rollovers, right?
That's not php's job. php just outputs the javascript for the browser
to run.

Not without Javascript. You're asking for action when the user clicks
something. Someone has to handle that click. To be done on the client
side, you have to use some kind of scripting (either Javascript, or
(shudder) VBScript).

If you cannot assume client-side scripting, then you must make a round-trip
back to the server to generate a new page.

You missed my later post. I realised later that CSS would only respond
to rollover events.

In exactly the same way as I posted to your question on news:alt.html ...

http://www.nigenet.org.uk/stuff/thumbtastic/

This uses javascript to swap the image and change the alt text if javascript
is available. If not, some PHP code reloads the page with the selected image
(and alt text).

Cheers,
Nige
