 * Hi.
 * I’m trying to make the following script…
 * [http://www.poguri.com/hello.html](http://www.poguri.com/hello.html)
 * (hover over and click the little guy in the corner)
 * …work on my main page:
 * [http://www.poguri.com](http://www.poguri.com)
 * But it just won’t happen. Any help is greatly appreciated.

 * Oh, I suppose I should mention…
 * The difference is that on my main page, I’m calling the javascript from an external
   file, located here:

 * I’m really not having any luck with getting my questions answered in these forums.
 * Oh well, so I managed to solve it myself, again.
 * Should anyone need to do this, it was a matter of changing every instance of:
 * **document.swapDiss.src**
 * to…
 * **document.getElementById(swapDiss).src**
 * And changing the **img name** property to **img id**. This made the script work
   AND validate in XHTML strict.
