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

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).

Another thing infiniti said very well. Building and coming up with sites really is … Continue reading

Program Start Up Screens

Hi there, can someone kindly point me near starting to learn how to create one in the pop up shots that come up before you start a program, like Microsoft Word such as. 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
