I am trying to add a javascript banner rotation applet to my site, and I have run into a few things that I don't see addressed anywhere. 1. The Applet tests fine on my browser before I upload it. Yet When I upload the files and call up the URL, it doesn't work. I can't find anything to tell me whether they should be uploaded as Ascii or Binary, and my FTP program doesn't seem to know either. However I tried
both, and they still don't work. The Java Console gives me the message:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: I have checked and rechecked: "FileVector.class" and it IS in the correct directory. What am I doing wrong? 2. I have tried a couple of different banner rotation applets and neither one will pull up an image from anything other than the same directory (even when I'm supposed to have that option specified in the Parameters). It tells me : Can't access /banners/image.gif 3. Should I be able to run more than one Applet on the same page:
-if they are the same Applet? The authors of these Free scripts, say they have too many e-mails to answer, so don't send them any questions.
Can you suggest a better Banner Rotation Script?
Answer: --Dr.Website Question: Answer: You can choose the size of the images that will be displayed on the page. As for making it move from one slide to another, you can always use a META refresh to take it to the next page (though you'll be taking control away from the user, which isn't generally something you want to do). <META HTTP-EQUIV=3D"refresh" content=3D"2;URL=3Dhttp://www.yoursite.com/newpage.htm">
(the 2 next to content refers to the number of seconds before the page
will refresh). --Dr.Website
Question: In other words, if someone is opening my homepage (index) then the default text size (which you can manipulate using MSE menu option: View-Text Size (size type) must always be 'MEDIUM". Even when the visitor has it's text size in small or large.
Is this possible? Answer: For instance, some folks who are vision impaired must turn the font size up so they can see the text on their browser. If you lock the font in at a smaller size, they will not be able to see it at all.
Bottom line--let folks decide for themselves how they want to view your pages.
