script causing a reload ?

[Chris W]

I have this java script page that causes a second entry in my html logs
that looks like this

"GET /Cart.html HTTP/1.0" 200 5408
"GET /Cart.html? HTTP/1.0" 200 5408

I don't know why the second get is in there, any ideas?

below is some of the script in question.

<SCRIPT Language = "JavaScript">
if (document.images)
{
pic0off = new Image();
pic0off.src = "/images/bhome.gif"
pic1off = new Image();
pic1off.src = "/images/bmodel.gif"

pic0on = new Image();
pic0on.src = "/images/ohome.gif"
pic1on = new Image();
pic1on.src = "/images/omodel.gif"
}

function pic_aktiv(imgName)
{
if (document.images)
{
imgOn = eval(imgName + "on.src");
document [imgName].src = imgOn;
}
}

function pic_passiv(imgName)
{
if (document.images)
{
imgOff = eval(imgName + "off.src");
document [imgName].src = imgOff;
}
}
</SCRIPT>

<A HREF="/" onMouseOver="pic_aktiv('pic0')"
onMouseOut="pic_passiv('pic0')"><IMG SRC="/images/bhome.gif" NAME="pic0"
ALT="Alpha-Omega Productions" WIDTH="38" HEIGHT="25"
BORDER="0"></A>&nbsp;&nbsp;
<A HREF="model.htm" onMouseOver="pic_aktiv('pic1')"
onMouseOut="pic_passiv('pic1')"><IMG SRC="/images/bmodel.gif"
NAME="pic1" ALT="Modeling" WIDTH="57" HEIGHT="25"
BORDER="0"></A>&nbsp;&nbsp;

What happens if you change
<A HREF="/"
to
<A HREF="Cart.html"
?

This presumes that the script above is in the "Cart.html" page and that the
visitor is clicking on that link.

You didn't show the right part of the page.
The second GET, in which the URL ends with a "?" looks like the
result of a form being submitted.

I don't see how that would change anything. To get the log entries I
mentioned in my original post all I have to do is type in
mysite.com/Cart.html and I first get a get for Cart.html then a bunch of
events for all my graphics, then finally a second get for Cart.html? I
don't know why the ? is added to the second get either.

"I don't know why the second get is in there, any ideas?". I gave you an
idea.

"I don't see how that would change anything." -- nor do I. Did you try it?

There is no form on that page..... you can see the whole thing here

I forgot to mention that if I run this from an old version of netscape
(4.7) The second get looks like this

"GET /? HTTP/1.0" 304 -

where every other browser I use sends this get the second time

"GET /Cart.html? HTTP/1.1" 206 4255

This line:
<body BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" TEXT="#000000" LINK="#106BA5" VLINK="#A56B10"
ALINK="#FF00FF" BACKGROUND="?">

Is trying to load a background image named "?".
That's what's causing that second hit.

Pearhaps you don't wait enough before you drag your mouse
on images ?
Wait the satus bar is no more giving informations (loadings)
Let time to the pre-load of roll-over 's images

Thanks, that took a long time for me to track down. First I thought it
was my cgi script which was running twice because of this, so spent a
day fiddling with it and having other people look at it. Finally the
thought came to me that it was the java script in my html file that my
script used to wrap around it's dynamic out put. Who knows how long it
would have taken me before I thought to just look at the plain html.

I actually found it by using Netscape 7's "View > Page Info" menu item.
I looked at the "Media" tab to see the URLs of all of the images on the
page.
