Dear Mozilla,

Changing the .SRC attribute of a named image does not display the new image.

Do you have a testcase ?

wfm on win2k build 20020516 and www.mversen.de

Comment 2

[Jesse Ruderman]

Have you ever changed the setting "Allow web pages to... change images" in the
Scripts & Windows preferences?

Comment 3

[Michael Lefevre]

WFM with 2002070310 trunk on win2k.

reporter (Chris): can you reproduce this with a recent build of mozilla? if so,
please comment again with details, preferably including some kind of example
where it fails. if not, please resolve this bug as WORKSFORME. thanks.

Maybe I can clearify this problem a bit because I found this bug while searching
for similar one to my problem

document.images[0].src = myimage  ==>> works!

But if you try to change the image from a different frame, it does NOT work!

Assuming you have two frames, frame1 (e.g. with an index of photos) shall change
image-object on frame2, it will NOT work!

parent.frame2.images[0].src = myimage  ==>> DOES NOT WORK!


Workaround:
parent.frame1.setTimeout('document.images[0].src = "' + myimage + '";', 1);

Not really nice, but it works... :-)


Chris: did you try to change images across framesets?
