onclick and img tag trouble

[demuro1]

Basically I want to click on an image and have an onclick call a javascript function. It does not work. I have successfully done this with an alert but if I move the alert to a function it stops working. thanks for any help you can provide these first two pieces are what I am trying to do.

<script type='text/javascript'>			  		  payNow()			   {				    alert('PayPal Button Pushed');			   }			    </script>

<img src="images/navigationImages/paypal.gif" onclick="payNow()">

this works

<img src="images/navigationImages/paypal.gif" onclick="alert('PayPal Button Pushed')">

you have to declare it as a function function payNow() {alert('PayPal Button Pushed');} with this 'payNow()' on its own will calls this declared function

damn it how did I miss that. I know you need to declare it as a function. Damn sorry, thanks! at least I'm not as bad as one guy in my class. his script rage looked like this

<script type='text/javascrip'>

he forgot the t in javascript, he recoded his assignment 4 times before he caught the mistake Thanks so much again!!!!
