Mouse Banner by Peter Gerhig Dec. 29 1999 in A-Z scripts
of this site;it gives me an error in debug::

<–in the code that goes in the head–>

var thisspan = eval(“document.span” + i);

warning 5002 var “thisspan” already defined…

??what does that mean??

@freefallJul 08.2003 — Probably if you checked through the rest of your code, you would see "var thisspan" more than once. The "var" is what initially makes this a variable. Once it's made, it remains a variable until the function or page is closed. So if you put "var thisspan" more than once, it confuses the browser.

After the first ever var thisspan =

the rest should be simply thisspan =

So your line should be

thisspan = eval("document.span" + i);

Hope that helps,

Ian
