Image Ready Rollovers

[Magic-chef]

This rollover script is created by Image Reaady. When using IE and
especially with Win XP the images involved in the rollover disappear.
It happens gradually with one or two at first then all. Even a browser
refresh does not bring the images back.

I there a problem known issue with Image Ready rollover scripts and IE+XP?

<script TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
function newImage(arg) {
if (document.images) {
rslt = new Image();
rslt.src = arg;
return rslt;
}
}

function changeImages() {
if (document.images && (preloadFlag == true)) {
for (var i=0; i<changeImages.arguments.length; i+=2) {
document[changeImages.arguments].src = changeImages.arguments[i+1];
}
}
}

var preloadFlag = false;
function preloadImages() {
if (document.images) {
login_over = newImage("images/login-over.jpg");
join_over = newImage("images/join-over.jpg");

Snip out several image preloads

preloadFlag = true;
}
}

// -->
</SCRIPT>

No, not to me.

Why not keep it simple:

<img src="img1.jpg"
onmouseover="this.save=this.src;this.src='img1a.jpg'"
onmouseout="this.src=this.save">
<img src="img1a.jpg" width=0 alt="preloader">
<br>
<img src="img2.jpg"
onmouseover="this.save=this.src;this.src='img2a.jpg'"
onmouseout="this.src=this.save">
<img src="img2a.jpg" width=0 alt="preloader">

onmouseover="this.save=this.src;this.src='img2a.jpg'"
onmouseout="this.src=this.save">
<img src="img2a.jpg" width=0 alt="preloader">

So, I would use the preload function just as it is and scrap the
newimage function. The new image is replaced by onmouse*= in the image
tags.

Please excuse me as I am just starting to learn Javascript.
