    text
    copied!<p>I have a simple JS function changing the background image of my website for each "page" - there are actually no separate pages, just JS changing the content area and background. Here is the code I have:</p> <pre><code> var selector = 'home'; function changeBG() { if( selector == 'portfolio' ) { document.bg_img.src = 'imgs/sandwiches/BLT_smlbw.jpg'; } else if( selector == 'contact' ) { document.bg_img.src = 'imgs/sandwiches/eggSammerSml.jpg'; } else { document.bg_img.src = 'imgs/plums4.jpg'; } } </code></pre> <p>and the HTML</p> <p><pre><code></p> <pre><code>&lt;!-- bg --&gt; &lt;img class="bg" id="bg_img" src="" alt="background_image" name="background_image" /&gt; &lt;!-- /bg --&gt; &lt;!-- content --&gt; &lt;div id="wrapper"&gt; &lt;!-- left nav --&gt; &lt;div id="left" class="content"&gt; &lt;img src="imgs/sandwich_logo.png" width="384" height="73" alt="sandwich_enthusiast" name="sandwich_enthusiast" /&gt; &lt;ul class="nav"&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#about" id="about"&gt;about&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#" id="portfolio" onclick="selector = 'portfolio'; changeBG();"&gt;portfolio&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#contact" id="contact" onclick="selector = 'contact'; changeBG();"&gt;contact&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://glosee.ca/blog" id="blog"&gt;the sammers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p> </pre></code></p> <p>In Chrome, Safari, and IE8 the image loads perfectly fine, but in FF the image loads as a background image in the wrapper div on the first click, then into the overall background on a second click.</p> <p>Any ideas of how this can be fixed?</p> <p>Thanks</p>
