Animation Usage
Note: The unregistered version of this animation may be fully customized and used on as many web sites as desired. In the unregistered version, the consulting.com, Inc. name is displayed when the button is hovered over. The corporate name does not appear in the purchased version. Please note that the purchased version contains ten buttons.
 
Easy Setup
The easiest way to set up the animation on your site is to start with the animation code found on this page. Use notepad to view the file "Sample.txt". You will see five sets of <OBJECT> tags. Each pair of tags represents a button. This is accomplished by referencing one of the five .swf files provided in the zipped download. Also, a .txt file is referenced to enable you to customize each button. So, the first block of code you see references ChromeBar1.swf and uses text1.txt. the second block of code references ChromeBar2.swf and uses text2.txt. etc. So, just copy a block of code and paste it into your HTML page. It really doesn't matter where you place it. You can even nest it in a table. Then modify the coresponding text file to customize the text that appears on the button.
 
The following is what can be changed in the text.txt files:
 
The text.txt file is what enables you to customize the animation. If you open it in Notepad, you will notice one line of text which appears on the first line of the file. This line of text is a series of variable names and values separated by ampersands. For instance, you will see:
 
text=text that will appear on the button
url=http://www.cnn.com
 
text - The The text which will be displayed in the button.
url - If you click on the button, this is the link you will be taken to.
 
By changing a value on the right side of the equal sign, you will make a change to the button.
 
Please note: In the trial version of ChromeBar, the consulting.com corporate name will appear when the button is hovered over. This can not be altered by changing the value of the text variable.
