Editing a Script

[C L]

Hi there,

Just wondering if anyone knows how to edit the following script. It is for a pair of spooky eyes that follow your cursor, problem is.............I use several layers of backgrounds and images on my page, therefore the eyes end up behind the background/image.

I have tried to alter the script myself, however no-go. I'm not sure exactly or if it can be "altered" to have the eyeballs on top of the background/image.

Thanks to all who respond.

The Script:

<script language="JavaScript">
//Watching Eyes script- By Kurt (kurt.grigg@virgin.net)
//Script featured on Dynamic Drive
//Visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com for this script and more

pic0.src="eye.gif";

pic1.src="pupils.gif";

var n6=(document.getElementById&&!document.all);
var ie=(document.all);

var _d=(n4||ie)?'document.':'document.getElementById(" ';
var _a=(n4||n6)?'':'all.';
var _r=(n6)?'")':'';
var _s=(n4)?'':'.style';
if (n4){
document.write('<layer name="eyeball" top=0 left=0 width="69" height="34"><img src="eye.gif" width="69" height="34"></layer>');

Re: Editing a Script

on each image that it goes behind right click the image and click the move to back, that should work for you. no need to change the script
