change onmouseover() target function

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Aug 15.2010

Hi

I have an onmouseover attribute which calls a function called changePicture, and it works fine, by changing the src of the picture.

If I mouse over something else I want to call a function to change the target of the onmouseover attribute declared before.

I want it to call another function, not the changePicture() declared before.

Is this possible?

I am not using JQUERY or similar.

Thanx

[code=php]
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

function changePicture() {
alert('Function changePicture was called');
}

function changeFunction(elemId) {
document.getElementById(elemId).onmouseover=function() {
alert("This is div1's new function");
}
alert("div1's onmouseover function has been changed");
}

//-->
</script>

</head>
<body>

<div id="div1" style="width: 100px;" onmouseover="changePicture();">
This is Div 1
</div>

<div id="div2" style="margin: 50px 0px 0px 100px; width: 100px" onmouseover="changeFunction('div1');">
This is Div 2
</div>

</body>
</html>
[/code]
