» Exkurs: Name convention for Images

The main menu offers the option of depicting the menu options as text or graphics. Hover effects can be used when using graphics. For this, the graphics must follow a name convention as described in the following table.

Name conventions and states for menu options:

State	Example	Name convention
Unselected		btnXXX1.gif
Unselected Hover		btnXXX3.gif
Selected		btnXXX5.gif
Selected Hover		btnXXX6.gif

The images are automatically exchanged as soon as the mouse pointer is moved over a menu option. A JavaScript Eventhandler, which is registered for the MouseOver and MouseOut-Event in the file fw/def/jscript/controls.js, is responsible for this.

This script is automatically included in every HTML page by the default painter.
