DevGuru JavaScript EVENT HANDLER: onMouseOut



			EVENT HANDLER: onMouseOut onMouseOut = myJavaScriptCode Event handler for Layer, Link The onMouseOut event handler is used to execute specified Javascript code whenever the user moves the mouse out of an area or link from inside that area or link. If used with an Area object, that object must include the HREF attribute within the AREA tag. And if you want to set the status or defaultStatus properties using the onMouseOut event handler, you must return true within the event handler. onMouseOut uses the following properties of the Event object: type - indicates the type of event. target - indicates the target object to which the event was sent. layerX, layerY, pageX, pageY, screenX, screenY indicate the cursor location at the time of the MouseOut event. The following example creates an Image object. When the user moves the mouse outside the image from within it, the onMouseOut event handler changes the picture displayed by calling the 'changeImage' function which (not listed) alters the src property of the Image object. Code: <IMG name="myImage" src="images/myPic.jpg" onMouseOut="changeImage()">
