I am finding that when I use onmouseover in an <img> tag it does not work in
NN4.5,

<img src="abc.gif" onmouseover="alert(It works!!);">             .... it
doesn't work in NN4.5, OK in IE4 & 5

If I put it into an anchor tag (without the href="" )

<a onmouseover="alert(It works!!);"><img src=abc.gif></a>  .... it doesn't
work in NN4.5,  OK in IE4 & 5


If I now simply put in ...     href="blah.html"  .....

<a href="blah.html" onmouseover="alert(It works!!);"><img src=abc.gif></a>
It works in both browsers

Can anyone help as I don't want the image to be a link but I do want a
mouseover effect

Many thanks
