page transitions

[minulescu]

I've seen this on a page before, i dont remember where. When you clicked a link (taking you to a dif. page on their site) the transition was smooth...maybe even called "blend"
I think it's done with meta tags..but I'm not sure how.
If anyone knows how...
Thanks

Pick any of these which go in the head:


<!--BLENDS:-->
<meta http-equiv="Page-Enter" content="blendTrans(Duration=2.0)">
<meta http-equiv="Page-Exit" content="blendTrans(Duration=2.0)">
<meta http-equiv="Site-Enter" content="blendTrans(Duration=2.0)">
<meta http-equiv="Site-Exit" content="blendTrans(Duration=2.0)">

<!--REVEAL TRANSITIONS:-->
<meta http-equiv="Page-Enter" content="revealTrans(Duration=1.0,Transition=23)">
<meta http-equiv="Page-Exit" content="revealTrans(Duration=1.0,Transition=23)">
<meta http-equiv="Site-Enter" content="revealTrans(Duration=1.0,Transition=23)">
<meta http-equiv="Site-Exit" content="revealTrans(Duration=1.0,Transition=23)">


You should be able to figure out what each one does. The transitions can have any number from 1 to 23 (I think), with 23 being random.

BTW, this is IE only isn't it? :)

Yep. But at least there's no harm done to other browsers as it's a meta tag. Is there any other browser-specific meta tags anyone knows of?
