Lexcyn Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 Well, my question is how do you make your links 'fade' like the links here on Neowin? I've been trying DHTML and Java... but I can't find out how to do this :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ike Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 found in the source code: <script src="./style_images/violet/fade.js" language="javascript"></script> so try going to that address ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 john smith 1924 Veteran Posted March 19, 2003 Veteran Share Posted March 19, 2003 ps... yeah -dont just copy paste that :p you need to save the js file and make it relative to you (the link) - and i think theres loads of other junk in there aswell...

0 Lexcyn Posted March 19, 2003 Author Share Posted March 19, 2003 Ohh I see! Well thanks for the help. I'll get going and see what I can do with this ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lexcyn Posted March 19, 2003 Author Share Posted March 19, 2003 Okay... well I downloaded the fade.js file... and I placed the code into my html... but now it doesn't work. :s I have it before my </head> tag, but before my <style> tag... I figure I have to point out this script to my text somehow... any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lexcyn Posted March 19, 2003 Author Share Posted March 19, 2003 Never mind! I found a great site on the net that explains it all! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 dr3w2k3 Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 I just grabbed the .js file and threw it into a test HTML file and it worked for me without adding anything but the script code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lexcyn Posted March 19, 2003 Author Share Posted March 19, 2003 Yeah, I got the fading to work now too... but how do you prevent the font from being underlined and purple (visited link color)? It says you can't use any formatting options within the faded text so... :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 dr3w2k3 Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 Try using a stylesheet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lexcyn Posted March 19, 2003 Author Share Posted March 19, 2003 Alright, I'll try that. Thanks. :p :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lexcyn Posted March 20, 2003 Author Share Posted March 20, 2003 Alright... problems. :blink: I got the fading to work BUT, for some reason it displays #006699 as the default color before you hover over it. After you hover over it for the first time it changes to display the color I want, which is black. Now, I have searched all my files for this mysterious value with no luck so far... :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Rusty.Metal Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 You have the text set to 006699 <font color="#000000"><a href=" ">Link 1 </a></font> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lexcyn Posted March 20, 2003 Author Share Posted March 20, 2003 Nope... I searched my entire HTML and I don't see #006699 anywhere... :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Eli Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 *bump* Has anyone been able to figure this out yet? I've been looking all over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
