Fading Text

Hi,

this script here displays a fading text message.
I would like to display 3 different messages, let's say "Fading text
1", "Fading text 2", "Fading text 3".

Also, is there a way to make it work under FireFox too?

Thank you very much for help


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaS cript1.2">

ie4 = ((navigator.app Version.indexOf ("MSIE")>0) &&
(parseInt(navig ator.appVersion ) >= 4));
var cnt = 0, cnt2 = 0, add1 = 3, add2 = 10, timerID;

function show() {
if (ie4) {
cnt += add1;
cnt2 += add2;
delay = 30;
if(cnt2 100) cnt2 = 100;
if(cnt 100) {
cnt = 100;
add1 = -10;
add2 = -3;
delay = 350;
}
if(cnt < 0) cnt = 0;
if(cnt2 < 0) {
cnt2 = 0;
add1 = 3;
add2 = 10;
delay = 200;
}
fader.style.fil ter = "Alpha(Opacity= "+cnt2+",Finish Opacity="+cnt
+",style=2)" ;
timerID = setTimeout("sho w()", delay);
}
}
window.onload = show;
</script>

</head>

<body bgcolor="#9B360 0">

<center<div id="fader" style="width:48 0;
Filter:Alpha(Op acity=0,FinishO pacity=0,style= 2)">
<h4<font family="Arial, Helvetica" color="#FFFFCC" >
FADING TEXT 1
<br><br></font></h4</div</center>
</body>
</html>

If you had read the the link I gave you, you'd have been able to discount
this one right off.

How to improve the script and make it fail gracefully:

My first idea would be quick and dirty. Put all of the text into the
DIVs or the SPANs so it is available, then use Javascript to 'extract
them' and fade them back in. Perhaps conditionally inline a style sheet
to set the DIV's to "hidden" when JS is available.

Change the array to a list of divs to extract the strings from and re-
fade in.
Figures I would remember something important after I posted.

In addition, pre-check the fade methods. If the message can't be faded
back in, don't get rid of it in the first place. That will handle
browsers that either don't support opacity or are not handled by your
code. (IIRC, Konqueror has its own way of setting opacity, but I don't
have that here at the moment.)

Hi all. I have some forms that use the opacity property to fade in/out. I'd like to do the same kind of thing with a richtextbox on one of my forms. Doesn't look like opacity is exposed on the rtb control, so I was wondering if anyone had done this before. I'm looking for the effect of fading in at a specific point in the form (when a timer ticks actually). I also don't mind some effect like the size of the control starting smaller...

Hello, I have a windows form in a project that was written long ago. I noticed that all images in this form have a width of 1 pixel, but they are streched over all the form (from left to right). When they are streched the right hand of the images is fading. I would like it not to fade. Any ideas of how to do this? thanks, -- dshemesh
