flying object Options

[stefani_hsc]

does anybody know how come the flying object code is not working for xanga now?
or is there any other way to get it?
i really like the flying object effect, i really want it for my site!!!

Which code - could you specify what you are talking about with an example or with a link to a site that has it?

Try this one - it's used in my Cherry Blossoms layout. Just place your image url where it says "PUT IMAGE URL HERE".

CODE

<script language=JavaScript>
st=setTimeout;
change='';
var no = 1;
var speed = 15;
var falling = "PUT IMAGE URL HERE";
var ns4up = (document.layers) ? 1 : 0;
var ie4up = (document.all) ? 1 : 0;
var dx, xp, yp;
var am, stx, sty;
var i, doc_width = 600, doc_height = 800;
if (ns4up) {
doc_width = self.innerWidth;
doc_height = self.innerHeight;
} else if (ie4up) {
doc_width = document.body.clientWidth;
doc_height = document.body.clientHeight;
}
dx = new Array();
xp = new Array();
yp = new Array();
am = new Array();
stx = new Array();
sty = new Array();
for (i = 0; i < no; ++ i) {
dx[i] = 0;
xp[i] = Math.random()*(doc_width-50);
yp[i] = Math.random()*doc_height;
am[i] = Math.random()*20;
stx[i] = 0.02 + Math.random()/10;
sty[i] = 0.7 + Math.random();
if (ns4up) {
if (i == 0) {
document.write("<layer name=\"dot"+ i +"\" left=\"20\" top=\"10\" visibility=\"show\"><img src=\"" + falling + "\" border=\"0\"></layer>");
} else {
document.write("<layer name=\"dot"+ i +"\" left=\"20\" top=\"10\" visibility=\"show\"><img src=\"" + falling + "\" border=\"0\"></layer>");
}
} else if (ie4up) {
if (i == 0) {
document.write("<div id=\"dot"+ i +"\" style=\"POSITION: abso"+change+"lute; Z-INDEX: "+ i +"; VISIBILITY: visible; TOP: 10px; LEFT: 20px;\"><img src=\"" + falling + "\" border=\"0\"></div>");
} else {
document.write("<div id=\"dot"+ i +"\" style=\"POSITION: abso"+change+"lute; Z-INDEX: "+ i +"; VISIBILITY: visible; TOP: 10px; LEFT: 20px;\"><img src=\"" + falling + "\" border=\"0\"></div>");
} } }
function snowNS() {
for (i = 0; i < no; ++ i) {
yp[i] += sty[i];
if (yp[i] > doc_height-50) {
xp[i] = Math.random()*(doc_width-am[i]-30);
yp[i] = 0;
stx[i] = 0.02 + Math.random()/10;
sty[i] = 0.7 + Math.random();
doc_width = self.innerWidth;
doc_height = self.innerHeight;
}
dx[i] += stx[i];
document.layers["dot"+i].top = yp[i];
document.layers["dot"+i].left = xp[i] + am[i]*Math.sin(dx[i]);
}
st("snowNS()", speed);
}
function snowIE() {
for (i = 0; i < no; ++ i) {
yp[i] += sty[i];
if (yp[i] > doc_height-50) {
xp[i] = Math.random()*(doc_width-am[i]-30);
yp[i] = 0;
stx[i] = 0.02 + Math.random()/10;
sty[i] = 0.7+ Math.random();
doc_width = document.body.clientWidth;
doc_height = document.body.clientHeight;
}
dx[i] += stx[i];
document.all["dot"+i].style.pixelTop = yp[i];
document.all["dot"+i].style.pixelLeft = xp[i] + am[i]*Math.sin(dx[i]);
}
st("snowIE()", speed);
}
if (ns4up) {
snowNS();
} else if (ie4up) {
snowIE();
}

it's not working, either!

[*digital.fragrance*]

hmm.... are you putting it into your header?

What browser are you using?

It works for me in the preview... hm...

[stefani_hsc]

yes, i put it in the header, i use internet explore.
the flying objects sometimes do show up for about one or two seconds, then disappear;
sometimes it's just not moving, everything just stick at same place.

[*digital.fragrance*]

Does your computer load images slowly because that sometimes causes the script to pause and disappear. Can you give me a link to your xanga so I can see what's going on? My compy is generally fast, and that way I can see if this is a script error or a computer error.

Well, it works in the skin previewer - at least, your header code does.

Can you give me you header and web stats codes? I have a hunch that some codes are conflicting.

thanks for your help, but i decide to give up.

For refrence, many codes work in the prewvie that don't work on Xanga anymore. =3
Oh, and it works... But they don't fall. It's a little odd. Hm, doesn't matter what code I use either... Ah, Xanga must have disabled something. You could possibly remote-link the java for it... Hm, that would be something to try later on. Anyways...
