Slime Lunatic (VI) Mad Scientist From: Massachusetts, USA Insane since: Mar 2000	posted 08-15-2003 03:02 I think you're going to need to be waaaaaay more specific than that. 1. Let us know what your code does. (Very important - it's very difficult to figure out what code does just by looking at it.) 2. Let us know very specifically what you're trying to accomplish (and be careful to specify this unambiguously). 3. If you're dealing with an error or problem of some sort in the code (which I'm not sure you are), give us a link to an actual web page that displays the problem clearly. We can probably help you with the opening a new page part, but it's very unclear what you mean by "where does a link go in this."

splodge Nervous Wreck (II) Inmate From: right about >x<there Insane since: Aug 2003	posted 08-15-2003 03:51 Aight Slime 1. Let us know what your code does? Its just a simple page effect that moves a layer in the form of a vertical line across the page from L to R with a slow and then fast action in the middle. 2. Let us know very specifically what you're trying to accomplish? Once the layer has completed its movement and tracked over to the right hand side of the page where it will stop. I want it to open up a new page on completion of that movement. 3. Where does a link go? I tried inserting a link at the end of the array example var path = new Array (1,3,5,3,12,......................950,3,950,3,955)'a href=page2.htm'); But it didnt work, got an error Hope that helps cheers mate

Slime Lunatic (VI) Mad Scientist From: Massachusetts, USA Insane since: Mar 2000	posted 08-19-2003 04:03 Well, first of all, you should know that this is a very inneficient way of doing this; it would be much better to dynamically calculate the object's position with a function than to store each animation frame's coordinate in an array. The reason adding a URL to the end of the array didn't work is because that array can only contain coordinates for the element to move to. The functions that move the element don't know what to do with a URL. To make a window open when the animation is finished, change the line else trNum=0; at the end of your script into else { trNum = 0; window.open("URL HERE"); } That bit of code is executed when the function has hit the end of the array, so that's where you want to tell it to open your window.

Aight Slime

1. Let us know what your code does?
Its just a simple page effect that moves a layer in the form of a vertical line across the page from L to R with a slow and then fast action in the middle.

2. Let us know very specifically what you're trying to accomplish?
Once the layer has completed its movement and tracked over to the right hand side of the page where it will stop. I want it to open up a new page on completion of that movement.

3. Where does a link go?
I tried inserting a link at the end of the array

example

var path = new Array
(1,3,5,3,12,......................950,3,950,3,955)'a href=page2.htm');
But it didnt work, got an error
Hope that helps
cheers mate
