[Javascript] Creating a DOM based Image Rotator

[Harvey A. Ramer]

The script does run on Firefox but requires me to use "name" rather than
"id". This is invalid XHTML.

I would like to use the id attribute. I think it requires using
getElementById and I'm not quite sure how to approach it. Probably simple.
I'll get it when I have time if no one else has the immediate fix.

Thanks,

Harvey

I think all you need to do is to change "document.rotateImg" (IE Only) by

myObject = document.getElementById("rotateImg");

Am I wrong or your problem was: "My script doesnt run on Firefox"? If
was that the reason then this should solve it.
