Floating Image

[SuzyQ]

Hey - I'm afraid I'm a js wannabe - I can copy 'em from js sources but can't
write 'em. I need to float a balloon image across my classroom website. I've
seen this done with other images but can't find that website now, and can't
find a script at any of the usual js resource websites. If anybody knows
where there's a similar script that I can "borrow" and modify for my image,
I'd really appreciate your help. Thanks,
SuzyQ

Define float!

[Because CSS float is probably not what you want]

Sorry for the confusion - CSS float is not what I'm looking for. I want my
balloon image to appear to "float" - or move slowly - across the screen,
above the web page. Ideally, it will appear at the bottom of the page,
moving reasonably slowly to the top of the page, then disappear. Thanks
again, SuzyQ

Ah yes:

Make the image css position:absolute and then manipulate the css left and
top values with a javascript setTimout().

Look at the myriads of snow flake scripts for more inspiration.
