changing the barckground image

[Jean Pierre Daviau]

Hi ,
a simple one,

document.body.background = document.getElementById('item').value

document.getElementById('item').value (an input text) return
the right value for the image.
Why the background is not changed?

Thanks for your attention.

Re: changing

NEVER start a new thread with "Re:"

a simple one,

A simple what?

document.body.background = document.getElementById('item').value

This is the code for an Image:

document.body.style.backgroundImage = url("....")

document.getElementById('item').value (an input text)

A background image must be an image (.jpg, .gif, .bmp, etc)

return the right value for the image.

Do not understand.

Why the background is not changed?

That's why.

Sorry I found it was because the event was in a form submit event.
The page was reloading.
