Tikita Nervous Wreck (II) Inmate From: Canada Insane since: Jun 2001	posted 07-05-2001 01:21 I looked at his source code, and well.. It confused me =), so I made a simple one which does the same effect. However, I have no idea if it works in NS (it sucks anyways), but works fine in MSIE . What I have is code: <script> document.onmousemove=MoveBar; function MoveBar(e) { xloc=event.x; if(xloc < 900 && xloc > 65) glow.style.left=xloc-65; } </script> Then, for a style I have code: <STYLE TYPE="text/css"> #glow {position:absolute; left:0; width:50; top:100;z-index:1500;} </style> And in the HTML, you'll have code: <div ID="glow><img src="./images/bar.gif"></div> The bar.gif is your "glow" bar which slides around. To get it to go behind the text, what I did was make a bunch of transparent gifs for news/links/etc, and put them onto Z-index above the glow #iface {position:absolute; left:0;top:0;z-index:2000;} That would go into your style section. Then, in your HTML, its just a matter of placing your info to accomodate. The whole source (for my page, which I am still working on, cross-browser combatability is mostlikely non-existant) code: <STYLE TYPE="text/css"> #glow {position:absolute; left:0; width:50; top:100;z-index:1500;} #iface {position:absolute; left:0;top:0;z-index:2000;} #bar {position:absolute; left:0;top:0;z-index:2000;} #close {position:absolute; left:973; top:0;z-index:3000;} </style> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> document.onmousemove=MoveBar; function MoveBar(e) { xloc=event.x; if(xloc < 900 && xloc > 65) glow.style.left=xloc-65; } function section(num) { // navigation stuff will go here } function closewin() { parent.close(); } winSTATUS = "down"; </script> <body> <html> <div ID="iface"> <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0> <tr> <td colspan=6 bgcolor=#B0C4E0 height=10 width=983> <div ID="close" onMouseUp=javascript:closewin()><img src="./images/close.gif"></div> </td> <tr> <td colspan=6><img src=./images/shypht-header.jpg width=983> </td> </tr> <tr> <td onMouseUp='section(0)'> <img src=./images/news.gif> </td> <td onMouseUp='section(1)'> <img src=./images/graphics.gif> </td> <td onMouseUp='section(2)'> <img src=./images/code.gif> </td> <td onMouseUp='section(3)'> <img src=./images/web.gif> </td> <td onMouseUp='section(4)'> <img src="./images/about.gif"> </td> <td onMouseUp='section(5)'> <img src=./images/links.gif> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div ID="glow"><img src=./images/bar.gif></div> </body> </html> I am just using a simple table to hold all of my links.

I looked at his source code, and well.. It confused me =), so I made a simple one which does the same effect. However, I have no idea if it works in NS (it sucks anyways), but works fine in MSIE . What I have is

code:

<script>

document.onmousemove=MoveBar;

function MoveBar(e) 

{

xloc=event.x;

if(xloc < 900 && xloc > 65)

glow.style.left=xloc-65;

}

</script>

Then, for a style I have

code:

<STYLE TYPE="text/css">

#glow  {position:absolute; left:0; width:50; top:100;z-index:1500;}

</style>

And in the HTML, you'll have

code:

<div ID="glow><img src="./images/bar.gif"></div>

The bar.gif is your "glow" bar which slides around.

To get it to go behind the text, what I did was make a bunch of transparent gifs for news/links/etc, and
put them onto Z-index above the glow

#iface {position:absolute; left:0;top:0;z-index:2000;}

That would go into your style section. Then, in your HTML, its just a matter of placing your info to accomodate.

The whole source (for my page, which I am still working on, cross-browser combatability is mostlikely non-existant)

code:

<STYLE TYPE="text/css">

#glow  {position:absolute; left:0; width:50; top:100;z-index:1500;}

#iface {position:absolute; left:0;top:0;z-index:2000;}

#bar   {position:absolute; left:0;top:0;z-index:2000;}

#close {position:absolute; left:973; top:0;z-index:3000;}

</style>



<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">



document.onmousemove=MoveBar;

function MoveBar(e) 

{

xloc=event.x;

if(xloc < 900 && xloc > 65)

glow.style.left=xloc-65;

}

function section(num)

{

// navigation stuff will go here

}

function closewin()

{

	parent.close();

}

winSTATUS = "down";

										

</script>



<body>

<html>

<div ID="iface">

<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>

	<tr>

	<td colspan=6 bgcolor=#B0C4E0 height=10 width=983>

			<div ID="close" onMouseUp=javascript:closewin()><img src="./images/close.gif"></div>

	</td>

	<tr>

I am just using a simple table to hold all of my links. This is not the best code, its pretty simple and has no browser/error checking things so it probably wont work in netscape. But, it should give you an idea of where to start.

Well Tikita,

Big THX for your code, i tried it and it works fine in IE.

What I would do, is have a style called like

#floatingbar1 {position:absolute; left:0; width:50; top:100;z-index:1500;}

then have the image you want to slide, <div ID="floatingbar1><img src=./image></div>

And when the page loads, call up a function which simply loops over and over, sliding the bar across the screen back and forth. like

code:

while(something)

{

 if (dir==1) // to the right

{

  floatingbar1.style.left=x;

 x++;

 if(x<800) dir=0;

}

if(dir==0) // to the right

 floatingbar.1.style.left=x;

 x--;

 if(x>0) dir=1;

}

havnt tested it out, but I think it would be something like that. But looking at Ozones, it looks like the bars "slow down" as they reach their max left/right location, not sure how I'd go about doing that.
