 * Working on the above site, i have confirmed that my simple javascript rollover
   function works by pasting the code directly in the header.php file, and tested
   it online. However, in linking to the file via
 * <script type=”text/javascript”
    src=”<?php bloginfo(“template_url”); ?>/js/imageswap.
   js”> </script>
 * I confirm with firebug that the code is being linked/called, but the javascript
   does not run the rollover. I’m sure i’m missing/forgetting something simple, 
   as it’s been a year since i’ve put one of these together….
 * please HELP!!…and thanks

 * It’s linking fine, i think your issue is the script itself..
 * Open your JS file, you’ll kick yourself when you spot the mistake.
