Hi,
Just in case you didn't know, although NS4 supports document.images[] , it
regards each <div> with an id, and it's position  set, as a new document
nested inside the first.
So if your page looks like this:

<body>
    <div id="holder">
        <img id="flasher" name="flasher" src="blah.gif" />
    </div>
</body>

Your script would look something like this:

if(document.layers){
    document.holder.document.images["flasher"].src = swopImg[image].src
}else{
    document.images["flasher"].src = swopImg[image].src
}

Also, the word "image" may well be a reserved word in NS4.

Cheers,
Richard Bennett
