And do you realise that once you click the link, another document is loaded into your browser window? Mick

The scheme part must not be omitted if the target domain is a different one, see RFC3986. Therefore, the above is equivalent to the resource "www.google.com" right below the DocumentRoot, not to the www.google.com Web site. > src='/images/abc.gif' border='0'></a> The `alt' attribute is required for the `img' element. > onClick action I want to print I presume you mean "to display". > the image name id of the anchor.

If this was a sentence, given the presumptions above, the answer would be <a href="http://www.google.com" id="check" onclick="alert(this.firstChild.name);" ><img name="img1" src='/images/abc.gif' border='0' alt="abc"></a> PointedEars

I read it as the ID of the a element that is wrapped around the image. >> how do I do that where should I add the onClick action in the anchor or >> in the image tag? > > If this was a sentence, given the presumptions above, the answer would be > > <a href="http://www.google.com" id="check" > onclick="alert(this.firstChild.name);" onclick=alert(this.id);return false; -- Randy comp.lang.javascript FAQ - http://jibbering.com/faq & newsgroup weekly Javascript Best Practices - http://www.JavascriptToolbox.com/bestpractices/

Fair enough, the blurred wording of the OP definitely allows for that :) >>> how do I do that where should I add the onClick action in the anchor or >>> in the image tag? >> If this was a sentence, given the presumptions above, the answer would be >> >> <a href="http://www.google.com" id="check" >> onclick="alert(this.firstChild.name);" > > onclick=alert(this.id);return false; The attribute value must be quoted here, and "return false;" is neither necessary nor viable in its current form (since it would disable the link feature of the element). Another solution for the latter: <a href="http://www.google.com/" id="check"><img name="img1" src='/images/abc.gif' border='0' alt="abc" onclick="window.alert(this.parentNode.id);"></a> And for the former: <a href="http://www.google.com/" id="check"><img name="img1" src='/images/abc.gif' border='0' alt="abc" onclick="window.alert(this.name);"></a> Both are not as downwards compatible as using the `onclick' attribute of the `a' element instead, though.
