Sample Script for the Layout Control

For the HTML Layout Control we have created two bitmaps, one to represent the Disabled state and another for the Enabled state. We then used the Microsoft Form 2.0 image control and laid the two images directly on top of each other. Using the hotspot control we created a hotspot the same size as the bitmaps and laid this on top of the two bitmaps. Then through script we modified the MouseEnter and MouseExit events for the hotspots, making the Enabled bitmap visible during the MouseEnter event and the Disabled bitmap visible on the MouseExit.

To ensure that the bitmaps are viewed correctly the first time, in the OnLoad event we made sure that all the Disabled bitmaps are visible and that all the Enabled bitmaps are not.

<SCRIPT FOR=Layout1 EVENT=OnLoad()>
b1on.Visible = false
b1off.Visible = true
b2on.Visible = false
b2off.Visible = true
b3on.Visible = false
b3off.Visible = true
b4on.Visible = false
b4off.Visible = true
b5on.Visible = false
b5off.Visible = true
</SCRIPT>

Here we have the MouseEnter and MouseExit event functions for the first bitmap. These functions are then repeated for each bitmap thereafter.

<SCRIPT FOR=HotSpot1 EVENT=MouseEnter()>
b1on.Visible = true
b1off.Visible = false
</SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT FOR=HotSpot1 EVENT=MouseExit()>>
b1on.Visible = false
b1off.Visible = true
</SCRIPT>
