[WEB4LIB] MouseOver Mess

[TMGB]

Yours is very similar to the one I use.  The big difference is the
function and number of parameters to the function call.  I'm not sure
what you are trying to do with the for loop but it sounds like each call
is going through the loop only one time and therefore using an index of
0 giving you image 0+1 every time.  Even if you were able to make i a
static variable, it seems that you would have to roll over each image in
order for the for loop to work.  Also, I don't know if you can do this
in JAVA but you defined the function with no arguments and then send it
two arguments on every call.  You may want to try this function I've
sent and just call it with image1, image2, etc.
