Swap Images within Frames

I have a standard function which changes pictures, typically used as part of a mouseover routine…

function swapimage(imgname,reference)
{
imgName=”referencename”
NewImg = eval(picture + ‘.src’);
document[imgName].src = NewImg;
}

It is flexible enough to change any named image, so it gets used extensively on my page according to the construction of “picture” and “referencename”.

I’ve now decided to introduce an <iframe name=”content”> onto the page and want to click on an image in that iframe to change images on both my parent page and in the iframe.

In the iframe, I use href=”javascript:top.function(value)”, which calls a function in the parent and changes the images using the swapimage() function.

How do I reference the images in the iframe for change?

Thanks
IB

PS… It’s taken a while, but I’m starting to get the hang of this JavaScript stuff.
