The Pool Applet is another that is fairly
simple to make. Little or no preparation must be made to the graphic
before use. No frames are necessary, the borders are sufficient, but
they can be used. However, keep in mind that the frame will also
pool when you mouse over it unless you use a another layer to accomplish
the frame on top of the applet.
Step #1
To begin making this applet,
choose your script.....you can find some of them posted in the files area
at Yahoo. . You will also need the pool menu.class file which is
also there in the class files folder, along with some sniplets i found on
the web. Choose your image, does not have to have water on it
and note of the height and width for your applet tags in the
script. Upload the image and class file, any other files you may be
using on a website page to the files area. If you are using this in
a stationery, you should leave your background files, midi files, eot
files in your stationery folder in your computer. The main image and
class file, as well as any asf files you use in your stationery will need
to go to the website.
Step #2
Only 2 steps to this
one. Now you are ready for the applet part of the script. You
will find changes that you need to make marked in red. If you
are using one of my scripts, you will notice that i use a
<div id=container>tag to house the applet. This
just assures you that the image will be centered in the table no matter
what the screen resolution is that the viewer is using. Add
approximately 5px or more to the size of the image to get the height and
width to use in the <div id=container> tag.
<DIV class=div1 id=container style="LEFT: 0px;
WIDTH: 365px; POSITION: relative; TOP: 0px; HEIGHT:
275px">
For wepage use :
<CENTER><APPLET code=waterr.class width=360 height=269>
<PARAM
NAME="speed" VALUE="3"><PARAM NAME="memdelay"
VALUE="10"><PARAM NAME="size" VALUE="3"><PARAM NAME="num"
VALUE="6"><PARAM NAME="priority" VALUE="3"><PARAM NAME="image"
VALUE="Your website addy/image name.jpg"><PARAM NAME="backcolor" VALUE="000099"><PARAM
NAME="factor"
VALUE="11"></APPLET></DIV></CENTER>
For
stationery use :
***notice the difference, you must
use a
codeBase in the stationery
applet
code.
<CENTER><APPLET codeBase="Your Website Addy/ " code=waterr.class width=360 height=269> <PARAM
NAME="speed" VALUE="3"><PARAM NAME="memdelay"
VALUE="10"><PARAM NAME="size" VALUE="3"><PARAM NAME="num"
VALUE="6"><PARAM NAME="priority" VALUE="3"><PARAM NAME="image"
VALUE="Your website addy/image name.jpg"><PARAM NAME="backcolor" VALUE="000099"><PARAM
NAME="factor"
VALUE="11"></APPLET></DIV></CENTER>
That's all
there is to it. You should have a wonderful pool effect applet
to use as an image in your statoinery for Outlook Express or on your
website, proudly displayed for all to see.
As always, if
you run into any problems, need help......don't hesitate to ask Karen,
Shari or anyone in the group. Can't wait to see what you come up
with !
Hugs,
Karen
