The Rainbow Applet
Description
The Rainbow applet draws a text message you supply in a constantly changing rainbow of colors. 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)
|
Rainbow works best when the background color is the same as the page it's on. 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. |
