[yskulmate]

how do you put a text on the status bar? i used this code but it does not apply a change on mah xanguh...

[CODE]
</style>
<script language=Javascript>
<!--
function initArray() {
this.length = initArray.arguments.length;
for (var i = 0; i < this.length; i++) {
this[i] = initArray.arguments[i];
}
}
var text = new initArray ("The truth ...", "It is a beautiful and terrible thing ...", "and should therefore be treated with great caution.", "yskulmate");
var speed = 40;
var speed2 = 900;
var whereat = 0;
var whichone = 0;
function waveb() {
var befor = text[whichone].substring(0,whereat);
var wave = text[whichone].substring(whereat,whereat+1).toUpperCase();
window.status = befor + wave;
if (whereat == text[whichone].length) {
whereat = 0;
++whichone;
if (whichone == text.length) whichone = 0;
setTimeout("waveb()",speed2);
}
else {
whereat++;
setTimeout("waveb()",speed);
}
}
waveb();
//-->
</SCRIPT>

I use this one..

[yskulmate]

but i want it to be changing.. for example if you see the first code i put on- the words ---> "The truth..." appears on the status bar, then it will disappear and change into another word on the effect of making a backspace as when you type a word on notepad or word-->"it is a beautiful and terrible thing..." then change into another ---> "and should therefore be handled with great caution."



hope u understand my explanation...

[kellyannie]

did it say this where you got your code:

PLEASE NOTE THIS SCRIPT NO LONGER WORKS ON XANGA DUE TO THE SETTIMEOUT FUNCTION

[yskulmate]
