Change the image of a submit button

[tomhughes]

Does anyone know how to change the image of the submit button ? Or can I send a command from another button to activate the submit button ?

Try looking at Jules page at Charon or browse through the MM extension library, I can't recall where I saw it but there may be an extension available to do that (or was it a tutorial...?)

Hey Tom,

Yes it's pretty simple.
<input type=&quot;image&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; name=&quot;imageField&quot; src=&quot;images/submit_button.jpg&quot; width=&quot;84&quot; height=&quot;40&quot;>

schase - Do you know how to add script to an image button? If I create a sumbit button with the script shown below, I can get a value to increment, however I have tried to add this scrit to an image button, but it gives me syntax errors.

<input type=&quot;button&quot; value=&quot;click to increment&quot; onClick=&quot;n++; document.forms[0].i.value = n; parent.passText;&quot;>

 

[schase]

are you trying to pass values to another page?

 

[tomhughes]

No - I am passing values to another frame.

 

[schase]

ok, i'm going to give this a shot in the dark - and you may have tried this.


<input type=&quot;image&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; name=&quot;imageField&quot; src=&quot;images/submit_button.jpg&quot; width=&quot;84&quot; height=&quot;40&quot;>

Need to change the path and picture name as well as width and heigth to your image.

Then highlight the image, open behaviors window (not server behaviors) click the + select call Javascript and in the box put.

onClick=&quot;n++; document.forms[0].i.value = n; parent.passText;

 

[tomhughes]

It won't let me add javascript behaviors to the button properties. I have tried just adding the code into the button, in the code window, but it keeps giving me errrors.

that's strange

Try this

<input type=&quot;image&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; name=&quot;imageField&quot; src=&quot;images/submit_button.jpg&quot; width=&quot;84&quot; height=&quot;40&quot; onClick=&quot;MM_callJS('onClick=\&quot;n++; document.forms[0].i.value = n; parent.passText;')&quot;>

copy that where your current image is - replace &quot;images/submit_button.jpg&quot; width=&quot;84&quot; height=&quot;40&quot;
with your info.

 

[tomhughes]

I believe you are on the right track, but I can't get the syntax correct.

 

[schase]

hmmm

post your script and the error message

 

[tomhughes]

It gives the error Unterminated String Constant
