ok, Doc, I was looking at your onmouse over scipt tutorial thing... anyway, think it would be possible for you to show us some new features, like delayed image changes (and whatever else you think is good).

ok, I sorta figured out how to do the delays with the onMouseover.

This is what I was able to do (well, atleast figure out, and steel off of ozone <img border=0 align=absmiddle src="http://www.ozones.com/forum/smile.gif"> )

(put your mouse over the black line to see the affect)

I just have a few questions, how do you make the images preload? (within the script.. not in the body tag)

also, what does this line do??

for (m=0; m<=5; m++)

and, the setTimeouts, are the numbers in any specific time? (like .1 seconds)

thanks,

Bob Monteverde

Ok Then. More on this thread. Something that I would like to know is how do you make one image show until the whole page has finished loading, and then when it has finished loading, swap it with another image. You see what I want to happen is that I am building a new interface, and I have a few animated GIFs that I only want to show at certain times. One is of this holograhpic, translucent screen appearing. I only want to show it after everything is loaded, but I still want it to preload so that you don't get a jerky animation. There are links that require thatr screen for bringing their descriptions up, so I also want to know, how do you disable the links until after the animation of the screen appearing?

I know that this is a bit convuluted, but It's the first period of school here, and I'm tired from being up until four this morning doing work for my graphics class.


Oh and Blitzkrieg...The setTimeout time is in thousandths of a second. So 1000 equals 1 sec...I think.

Ok, I think you can do that by making a swap image script, then simple do a onLoad="swapwhatever()"

(to think, I never really learned Javascript)

Well, I made this resizing thing:

I figure it's somewhat relevant to my last question. Anyway, my guess is the script I wrote on the page completely sucks... but the theory is descent. How would I make it better?

That's pretty cool!

Go here to learn how to make things slide: http://www.projectcool.com/developer/dynamic/

it has a very informative tute w/script. <img border=0 align=absmiddle src="http://www.ozones.com/forum/smile.gif">

Thanks... the script I wrote above can easily be changed to make it change a layers left and top position (I think)... though I think the script I wrote probably has many problems... or there is an esay/better way (which, I wish someone would tell me).

But, I think it's a descent script... when I really just started to Learn Javascript yesterday (Well, I've used it many times, and understand it... I just never formaly learned it)

well thats pretty much all there is to that, but you are going to have problems in Netscape (you can't change width or height in NN) There is a workaround but it's pretty complicated.

Skarrj,

In terms of a preloading screen, what you want to do is probably use some sort of image preloading script and add a function at the end that shows the images when all the rest are loaded
