animated graphic on the side -
I'd like to have an animated graphic of Taz on the left hand side of my front page that continues to move vertically no matter where you are on the page. I'm kinda new to HTML and have tried it as an invisible frame but was unable to make it work. So, any suggestions that I can get would be great!!
I'm not sure how this forum works either so I'm putting my site address here so that you can take a look at my site if you'd like. Hope to hear from someone soon!!

I think I have an idea what you want to do now. What went wrong when you tried the invisible frame? Did it not display anything, or display it incorrectly. We'll try to help you get it working.
PS> When I replied to your e-mail I thought you meant something slightly different- sorry about that.

Are you looking for something similar to the 'webcurrents' graphic on my front page?

Very simillar to what's on the What Next site is what I'm trying to accomplish. When I tried to do the invisible frames, it didn't view correctly. It went on the side but disappeared as you scrolled down the right hand side. I can send you the graphic if it would help to know exactly what I want over on the left side.

Yes, send it through e-mail to me, or
post the url of the graphic so we can go look at it.
JP may have the script for it, it is a watermark script.

I've placed the graphic on my site for you to take a look at. I thought it might be easier that way.
You can access it by going to

Hope this helps a little.

Just so I don't forget the watermark script, compatible with IE4+ and N4 can be found at http://www.dynamicdrive.com .
Good Luck!

MsTaz,
No it will not work, I now see what you mean, why not try two tables, side by side?Would that not work. And what was the problem with the framed version?

You guys are the GREATEST!!!! Thanks for the html!!! It worked!!!! I'm so happy!! You'll have to go look at it!! I was doing it all wrong and getting that instruction on what to put where was WONDERFUL!!!!
I only have one other question. Is there anyway to stop the pop-up besides putting a geoguide on there? I put one there and it looked horrible!! If not then who cares!! I can't thank you guys enough!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!!
Be sure to go look at it! I think the suggestion to put navigation there is a good idea. I'll work on that later!!
In case I for got to say it, you guys are the BEST and thanks a bunch!!!!

Taz,
Works and looks fine in IE4.
Re: the banner, there is javascript that suppresses the popup but I can't really condone it because of the fact that Geocities relies on banner impressions to stay active. Sorry.

When I tried the frames, it was there as long as I was at the top of the page, but as I scrolled down, it disappeared. It was as if the frames were at the top section only. Also, it seemes to have moved the top of my page down somewhat. This probably isn't making sense. I've never done frmaes before and I'm starting to wonder if maybe I had the tag wrong or in the wrong place. I copied and pasted it from John's site, Page Resource, and filled in my grapics in the 'page' areas of the tag. Anyway, like I said, I'm starting to wonder if I just messed it all up from the beginning.
I don't have time to mess with it this morning but maybe later this afternoon I can try the table suggestion.
P.S. Again, the graphic can be found at:
<a href="http://www.geocities.com/napavalley/vineyard/6108/taz.html">Taz Graphic</a>

Hey MSTaz
Here are some index files for you to try. You will need to rename your current index.html to home.html. Also you might have to mess with the width in row column. I included two files. The first uses your current web page the second needs a header.html file. This might include your website name. You will also need a side.html file with only the gif in it that you want to use. You might consider some small navagation buttons to fill in the empty space. If you want navagation let me know an I will show you how to get the image to link to the correct window.
save as index.html
<html>
<head>
<frameset cols="50,*" border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="side.html" name="first" scrolling="no" noresize marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" border="0">
<frame src="home.html" name="oben" scrolling="yes" noresize marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" border="0">
</frameset>
</head>
<NOFRAME>
<body text="#FFFFFF" bgcolor="#000000">
<h2>You need a frame enabled browser for this to work</h2>
</body>
</NOFRAME>
</html>
or use this one
<html>
<head>
<frameset rows="55,*" border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="header.html" scrolling="no" noresize marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" border="0">
<frameset cols="40,*" border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0">
<frame src="side.html" scrolling="no" noresize marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" border="0">
<frame src="home.html" scrolling="yes" noresize marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" border="0">
</frameset>
</frameset>
</head>
<NOFRAME>
<body text="#FFFFFF" bgcolor="#000000">
<h2>You need a frame enabled browser for this to work</h2>
</body>
</NOFRAME>
</html>
Hope this helps

Taz,
To have clickavle links use UBB code http://www.what-next.com/ubb/ubbhtml/ubbcode.html this enables us to use HTML as Jim has just done so well to help with problems like this.

I just thought I'd put one more thing out there, I just discovered that when you click a link on my page, the balloon stays on the left and the URL address stays as mine!What's up with that??? Also, is there a way to make it part of my front page only!! cause it stays there when you travel around my page too!! Take a look and let me know!
Thanks
MsTaz

The URL stays the same because it is from the index page. That page always stays loaded. If you want to have links open in their own window you need to add link="_top" to your ref tag. For instance
<A HREF="http://www.yahoo.com/" TARGET="_top">Yahoo</A><BR>
If you would like a real good tutorial that shows you lots of neat stuff about HTML and FRAMES and has some pretty neat stuff you should visit http://junior.apk.net/~jbarta/
He has some really good basic tutorials that you can download. It's where I got my start some 1 mpfmpfm (to long ago to admit) years ago.
Your page is looking great. Still waiting to see a picture of you and MrTaz though.
