Hello all

OK little help needed please

I am trying to stick a couple of moving ghosts on my forum for Halloween but am having a little trouble getting it to work.

The website I am using for the js files and info is http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex4/flyimage.htm

I have tried editing the forumhome and forumdisplay templates to get this to work.

I have 3 bits of text, a javascript file and 2 ghost gifs to use but just can't get them to move about.

Does anyone know if I am editing the wrong files or doing something I shouldnt?

Thanks

Stuart

Thanks guys, I add the whole script in the head include?

I cant work this out ok 3 groups of text:

(this goes into the <head> section of your page)

<script language="JavaScript" SRC="moveobj.js"> </script>
<script>

var chip1;
var chip2;
var chip3;
//add or delete more variables, depending on how many images you're using

function pagestart()
{checkbrOK();
chip1=new Chip("chip1",60,80);
chip2=new Chip("chip2",60,80);
chip3=new Chip("chip3",60,80);
//add or delete more of the above, depending on how many images you're using
if(brOK)
{ movechip("chip1");
movechip("chip2");
movechip("chip3");
//add or delete more of the above, depending on how many images you're using
}
}
</script>

(This next one goes into the <body> section of your page, outside any other tags)

<DIV ID="chip1" STYLE="position:absolute; width:47; height:68;">
<A HREF="some.html"><IMG SRC="../ballon3.gif" BORDER=0></a>
</DIV>
<DIV ID="chip2" STYLE="position:absolute; width:47; height:68;">
<A HREF="some.html"><IMG SRC="../ballon4.gif" BORDER=0></a>
</DIV>
<DIV ID="chip3" STYLE="position:absolute; width:47; height:68;">
<A HREF="some.html"><IMG SRC="../ballon2.gif" BORDER=0></a>
</DIV>

(And this one goes inside the <body> tag itself)

<body onLoad="pagestart();" onUnload="if(brOK) {stopme('chip1'); stopme('chip2'); stopme('chip3');}" >

So can anyone please tell me what templates I need to edit for it please? Can't get it to work myself!

Thanks

Stuart

Hey Made it work on my site
http://www.noxmedia.net/support/

Do it like this
in headerinclude before $headnewpm add:

Code:

<script language="JavaScript" SRC="moveobj.js"> </script>
<script>

var chip1;
var chip2;
var chip3;
//add or delete more variables, depending on how many images you're using

function pagestart()
{checkbrOK(); 
chip1=new Chip("chip1",60,80);
chip2=new Chip("chip2",60,80);
chip3=new Chip("chip3",60,80);
//add or delete more of the above, depending on how many images you're using
if(brOK) 
{ movechip("chip1");
movechip("chip2");
movechip("chip3");
//add or delete more of the above, depending on how many images you're using
}
}
</script>

then
at the beginning of the header add:

Code:

<DIV ID="chip1" STYLE="position:absolute; width:47; height:68;">
<A HREF="some.html"><IMG SRC="images/ballon3.gif" BORDER=0></a>
</DIV>
<DIV ID="chip2" STYLE="position:absolute; width:47; height:68;">
<A HREF="some.html"><IMG SRC="images/ballon4.gif" BORDER=0></a>
</DIV>
<DIV ID="chip3" STYLE="position:absolute; width:47; height:68;">
<A HREF="some.html"><IMG SRC="images/ballon2.gif" BORDER=0></a>
</DIV>

^^Upload the images to your images dir, and then upload the
Forum root, and then scroll down to the page layout options, in the body tag at the end replace:

Code:

">

with

Code:

" onLoad="pagestart();" onUnload="if(brOK) {stopme('chip1'); stopme('chip2'); stopme('chip3');}">

That should do it
