[Javascript] select

[Michael Dougherty]

How do you determine which image needs to change?

I started to answer this, but realized that unless the table is being
generated dynamically on the server, i have no (good) way to identify the
table cells' value.

How do you handle multiple occurances of the same key value in the table?
(ex: cat/dog/dog)
Does the option value have to be tied to the cell value?  <option
value='cat'>Meow</option>

Well, what I would do that doesn't require any innerHTML or anything
like that would be to place a blank image in each of those cells and
give it a name.

Then, when the onChange event occurs on the SELECT element, I'd
determine which image needs to change and update it's src to be the
correct image.  It will work with just about all past browser versions and
unless
things REALLY change, all future browser versions.
