Why dosent this simple JavaScript work?

[Naits]

I'm trying to make an OnMouseOver background change in a <td>. This is the function i'm using:
------------------------------
function flipbg(element,mode)
{
if (mode==&quot;over&quot
{
cursortype = 'hand'
picture = 'images/menu-over.gif'
}
else if (mode==&quot;out&quot
{
cursortype = ''
picture = 'images/menu-normal.gif'
}
element.style.background=picture;
element.style.cursor=cursortype;
}
----------------------------------------
And this is how I call the function:
----------------------------------------
<tr><td background=&quot;images/menu-normal.gif&quot; onmouseover='flipbg(this,&quot;over&quot;' onmouseout='flipbg(this,&quot;out&quot;' align='left'> Link Text!! </td></tr>
-------------------------------------------
But it's not working. What have I done wrong?

replace:

element.style.background=picture;


with

element.background=picture;


background is an attribute of the TD tag so you dont go thru the style collection.

can you post your style coding
that is where the problem is. I may not get it the 1st or 2nd time,
but how sweet that 15th time can be.
