I'm trying to make it appear as if a block is falling down the screen, but in order to do this I have to switch the .src at a given X,Y position. All the cells in the grid-like table I made contain "red.gif" as the default. Basically I have to switch that with another color .gif, like "green.gif", then "green.gif" needs to be passed on to the cell below it, while changing the .src of its origional position back to the default red. If someone could help me with this, it would be great, because as it is I'm stuck on this problem and can't move on until I figure out how to do this.
