Please excuse the basic nature of this question. I am learning HTML and CSS and have now begun to investigate Javascript.

Where can i find the input parameters required for such functions as onmouseover?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Steve,

Here is a good place to start for JavaScript:
http://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp

The onmouseover is an event, and can be found here:
http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_events.asp
Basically with an event, it executes the JavaScript you tell it when that event happens, usually it will be a function you've written.

The onmouseover event (I think all events?) only has one parameter which is the actual JavaScript that will execute.

Thank you!

Hey MikeyB,

Thank you for the info. I bookmarked and have begun looking at the site.

I also bought a book on JavaScript. The whole area of web development is more involved that i originally thought.

Thanks again for your help!
