How do you add those temporary floating windows seen in commercial sites?

Posted on October 5, 2012 by admin601 views

Many sites now showcase a floating eye-port (splash screen) which can be an advertisement for any limited amout of their time before disappearing. I don’t know what this is known as but I’d like to know how it is done. I’m sure splash screens aren’t a huge hit, but my web page takes a few seconds to load up and I need to to provide a brief window which pops up upon first visit and the quickly disappears after a matter of seconds. Anyone really know what this technique is named and how to do it Thanks, Paul Getting a few solutions, it could possibly be a webpage opened having a set width in addition to height, position or anything else.. Or getting a floating part (http: //www. yahoo. co. uk/searchhl=en& q=floating layers& btnG=Google Search& meta=) Your second item (http: //www. sivamdesign. com/scripts/dwld/lys_pop. html) looks like you could customize it to cease afte x mere seconds (using a setTimeout).

Entry pages are an effective way to stop visitors … Continue reading →

I think they may be called " splash screens" but dress yourself in be something somewhat different. Thanks a lot! Are you currently talking about web pages, or native products (PC software) For every website, I would avoid splash screens. Right now there really is absolutely no purpose to get them, and they will simply add also more clicks, or even more " waiting" for your user. Neither of the things are exactly what users want once they visit a website. This example you gifted, like MS Term, is actually some thing they show though software is definitely loading. Web pages are different then native executable software package. No not really a website. I actually need one attached into a. pdf file whenever you open it. Where would I find details on the subject With thanks! You would need a program complier… No way to hijack that adobe executable ( that splash screen is included in one of thier your local library ), to present the screen … Continue reading →
