The ImageScroll Applet

Description

The ImageScroll applet scrolls an image through another image from right to left. It is most usful in creating "banner" type advertisements or small, informative fields. ImageScroll is written so that it will look for the images it loads inside the same folder the applet loads from. By varying the parameters, you can create a variety of effects. You may optionally supply a URL that the applet will tell the browser to load when clicked. Size: about 3,900 bytes

Examples
(for each example on the left, the HTML that generated it is on the right)
Sorry, your browser does not support Java, so you can't see this applet in action.

By keeping the graphic background in tune with the page background, the image blends into the rest of the page. Note that moving the cursor over the flashing message shows a URL in your browser's status line. Clicking the flashing message will take you to that URL. The exmaples on this page are small, to make them fit along with the HTML, but they may be much larger in normal use.

Of course, the scrolling image can be completely inside the background image. The animals go by pretty fast in this example, we could set the Speed paramter to something smaller and slow them down.
