Subject: Re: changing textures on the same object (javascript) Sender: owen@atmos.umd.edu 31.03.02 18:49 My limited understanding is that you must use an EAI interface of some sort to do what you want. HTML doesn't talk very easily to your wrl file by itself. Depending on what kind of functionality you want with your overall page, the script nodes within a wrl file (e.g. vrmlscript or javascript) can change the image textures in your HTML page. You can use a hyperlinked object (a spherical button, for example) in the wrl file to point to a javascript function in your overall web page. That function then does whatever you want, like swapping the images in your table. You could also put all the image textures onto, say, planes somewhere in your wrl file, and use touchSensors for each image plane to swap the images warped on your wrl surface. This would be more or less equivalent to your HTML table (if I imagine it correctly) except that the wrl file is twice as wide, and the table itself contains no <IMG SRC= ...> tags.
