Hi Chiage,

I just had a look.  I get the non-swapping effect you decribe, but only
on the first mouseover.  After that, the images swap appropriately.
Seems like the swapimages simply aren't available in the cache on the
first go around... a look in my cache confirms that.  I thought you
might be using an older version, so I looked at your code.  I notice
your menu_array file references version 3.3.19, but the comments at the
top of mmenu.js have been removed (a no no by the way), so I can't tell
for certain which version it is... it looks like v3.3.19.  I mention
this because I think automatic image pre-caching was instituted in some
later update, which would alleviate the problem.  You could, of course,
also write your own script to pre-cache the swap images so that they
would be immediately available from the cache when needed.

You can download the latest release of version 3 (3.5.15) at the
following URL:

If this is a new project, you might do better to go with the latest...
version 5, release candidate 3 is at:

Hope that helps,

Kevin

Subject: [Milonic] Swap images not swapping


Hope someone out there can help me!  I built an image-based menu using 2
gifs for each heading.  On mouseover, the gifs should swap from a light
background with dark lettering to a dark background with light
lettering. Works fine when I preview in my browser, but when it is live,
the images do not swap.  The gifs are about 1k each.  Can someone please
look at the page and let me know what I've done wrong?  Thanks!!
