Javascript issue

[Paul]

I needed a way to show the user of my page that something was happening, so
what I came up with was to change an image I already had on the page when
they clicked on the SUBMIT button.

document.getElementById("image2").src =
http://sta2wd08/emplinkage/pleasewait.bmp

This works pretty well a lot of the time, but sometimes instead of getting
the graphic I get the icon which shows the X that the graphic cannot be
found.

Any suggestions?
Thanks
Paul

Maybe try copying that image to your local project directory... then use the
following code instead:

document.getElementById("image2").src='/images/pleasewait.bmp';

Another thing you might want to do if this doesnt fix anything, is preload
the image...

You might try using a JPG or IGF. BMPs are not universally supported by all
browsers.
