<a href="#"
onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()"
onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Home','','Images/menuButtons/home_out.png',1)"
onclick="alert("Hello")" ><img onclick="alert("Hello")"

alt="Home" name="Home" width="164" height="64" border="0" id="Home" />

I'm trying to create a navigation menubar with rollover images. Rollover Image part was created by Dreamweaver hence all those MM_functions
. But onclick
, I want to change the content of main frame, not just open a hyperlink.
So I tried onclick="JS_funtion()"
aswell as onMouseDown
and onMouseUP
. Nothing seemed to work. It's not even calling the functions as the example shows, I tried to call alert()
and still not working. I'm new to HTML/Javascript.
What am I doing wrong?

Arjan is right, you can't use double quotes inside a double-quoted attribute.
Other things:
onclick
in your image, the anchor tag will do,href="#"
is generally bad practice. It's better to make it a real link so that if the user right-clicks and chooses "open in new tab" it takes them somewhere meaningful.To do the latter though, you'll need to cancel the event by returning false.
Example:
<a href="/path/to/real/page" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Home','','Images/menuButtons/home_out.png',1)" onclick="alert('Hello'); return false;" >
<img src="Images/menuButtons/home_on.png" alt="Home" name="Home" width="164" height="64" border="0" id="Home" /></a><br/>
