What is this code for

D

Doug Stewart

I'm busy cleaning up my pages in order to sort out some search engine issues.
On my home page I have a piece of Java code but no idea of what it does.
Could anyone offer a view? I would like to delete it but am afraid of
possible long term consequences.

The reason I want to delete it is to move my keyword-rich body text earlier
in the page. I've recently taken a major search engine hit due to too much
stuff at the top of the page, so I have to do a major clean-up. The code I'm
asking about is:

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function FP_swapImg() {//v1.0
var doc=document,args=arguments,elm,n; doc.$imgSwaps=new Array(); for(n=2;
n<args.length;
n+=2) { elm=FP_getObjectByID(args[n]); if(elm) {
doc.$imgSwaps[doc.$imgSwaps.length]=elm;
elm.$src=elm.src; elm.src=args[n+1]; } }
}

function FP_preloadImgs() {//v1.0
var d=document,a=arguments; if(!d.FP_imgs) d.FP_imgs=new Array();
for(var i=0; i<a.length; i++) { d.FP_imgs=new Image;
d.FP_imgs.src=a; }
}

function FP_getObjectByID(id,o) {//v1.0
var c,el,els,f,m,n; if(!o)o=document; if(o.getElementById)
el=o.getElementById(id);
else if(o.layers) c=o.layers; else if(o.all) el=o.all[id]; if(el) return el;
if(o.id==id || o.name==id) return o; if(o.childNodes) c=o.childNodes; if(c)
for(n=0; n<c.length; n++) { el=FP_getObjectByID(id,c[n]); if(el) return el; }
f=o.forms; if(f) for(n=0; n<f.length; n++) { els=f[n].elements;
for(m=0; m<els.length; m++){ el=FP_getObjectByID(id,els[n]); if(el) return
el; } }
return null;
}
// -->
</script>

Thank you for any feedback,

Hi Doug,

That code does image rollovers - if you're using this feature don't delete
it if you're not you can. If you need the code best practice would be to
stick the code into an external file and then link it in with
<script type="text/javascript" src="YourScript.js"></script>
I doubt the search engines would hit you for that code though, there's
probably another reason

Thanks for the response. Could you tell me what a "image rollover" is? Does
it have anything to do with "JIMCO" spawn package (a package which allows one
to click on a link, which opens as a separate window)?

An image rollover is basically two different images. One is displayed after
the page loaded up, the other one is displayed only when the user moves his
mouse over the first one.

Nothing to do with Spawn.

And just to be really really picky, that isn't Java, it's javascript, and the two are not
related, except by an unfortunate attempt of one to tag onto the "popularity" of the other.
