Description Bart Nooijens 2011-01-21 08:12:51 UTC 
Here is the source code:

<div id="contact1"><img alt="contact" src="http://www.bartnooijens.nl/images/contact.png"
onMouseOver="this.src=http://www.bartnooijens.nl/images/contact_over.png"
onMouseOut="this.src=http://www.bartnooijens.nl/images/contact.png" ></div>


Here is the error code i get:

Line 44, Column 69: Bad value this.src=http://www.bartnooijens.nl/images/contact_over.png for attribute onmouseover on element img: missing ; before statement

onMouseOut="this.src=http://www.bartnooijens.nl/images/contact.png" ></div>

I'm quite sure im closing it correctly.

http://www.bartnooijens.nl/images/contact_over.png and http://www.bartnooijens.nl/images/contact.png are string literals, so you need to quote them:

<div id="contact1"><img alt="contact"
src="http://www.bartnooijens.nl/images/contact.png"
onMouseOver="this.src = 'http://www.bartnooijens.nl/images/contact_over.png'"
onMouseOut="this.src = 'http://www.bartnooijens.nl/images/contact.png'" ></div>
