Transitions
(Special Effects)
By Virtual Mechanics |
As most of you know,
Internet Explorer 4 and Netscape Navigator 4 introduced Dynamic
HTML capabilities to the two major Browsers. Dynamic HTML along
with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) makes Animation and Interactive
input capabilities possible on your Web Site. These advanced
capabilities were defined by the WC3 (World Wide Web) to ensure
that they are compatible across all Browsers.
In addition to the Dynamic HTML capabilities supported by all
conforming Browsers, there are several additional Special Effects
that are only supported by Internet Explorer. Implementing these
Special Effects can be quick and easy provided you are aware
that they may not work for all visitors to your site. The following
Effects are
available for Internet Explorer only and may be viewed at: www.IMSWebTips.com/is4fig1.htm
Fixed Background: This effect will fix the background in place
as you scroll the foreground. Enter GProperties="Fixed" into
the Body tag. Dynamic Scrolling: Internet Explorer only. This
effect will
automatically scroll the screen to keep an Object in view. Call
the script function 'object.ScrollintoView()' using the id of
the object.
Transition Effects: These effects will use a transition as you
enter and exit a page. Add the Meta Tags:
Duration= transition time in seconds.
Tansition= a transition effect from 0 through 23. Possible effects
are:
0 box in
