Netscape 6, Part II: Animation
A Final Word
In this column we continued to look at scripting Netscape 6. We taught you how to do basic animation operations -- browser-independently. How to extract elements with the same tag name, how to set the content of an HTML tag, how to move elements up and down, left and right, how to manipulate the string-based coordinates, and how to use the visibility property. The latter may also be useful in mimicking the blinking feature that is no longer supported by the DOM or Netscape 6.

- How to extract all elements with a given tag
- How to set the content of any HTML tag
- How to move objects horizontally
- How to move objects vertically
