Answer 1

It's hard to tell where the error comes from. Try enabling your ie debugger first so that you can catch the exact location of the error and post back your findings so that we can help.

Enabling debugger for IE:

1. Open IE
2. Click Tools->Internet Options->Advanced
3. Under Browsing category, uncheck "Disable script debugging(Internet Explorer)" option. Run your program and the ie debugger will appear when it encounters a problem.

Answer 2

Where did you get that picNumber? Is it global? If not, maybe that throws the error because it is not initialized.

Answer 3

I believe that object error happens only because you are not passed the value to this function. it should be like bellow,

<img src="test.jpg" onclick="javascript:OnImageClick(this.id);" id="1" />

function OnImageClick (picNumber)
{
   var url;
  switch (picNumber) {
  case 0:
   url = "http://www.zagreb.in/horoskop/rak.html";
   break;
  case 1:
   url = "http://www.zagreb.in/horoskop/ovan.html";
   break; <-- error
  case 2:
   url = "http://www.zagreb.in/horoskop/djevica.html";
   break;
  case 3:
   url = "http://www.zagreb.in/horoskop/vaga.html";
   break;


}

Answer 4

Remove the <-- error
