Here's
how you can put this on your page using SiteBuilder.
First,
get the .class files from the website.
There are three: gfx.class, Wisp.class, and
WispList.class. You'll find them on the
Downloads page under FX, "ufoOh!" (that's
the name of the applet.)
Upload
the files to your Imported Files Manager. Won't take
you too long. Or use FTP.
Then
use the applet code to the left, just as I have typed it.
You'll need to input it in the Insert HTML element on
your page. Then move the element to where you want the
applet to appear on your page. If you're a non-Homestead/
Sitebuilder user, leave out CODEBASE=files/
from the first line.
Unlike
some sites this one doesn't go into great detail how
to manipulate the parameters (PARAM). The color
parameters shown are in RGB values and are for the
color aqua. If you know the RGB color codes, you can
safely change these parameters to suit your taste.
If you don't know the RGB codes, check out the color
code chart at lynda.com
where she shows the colors in both RGB codes (xxx xxx
xxx) and HTML hex codes (#xxxxxx).
You
can probably change the width and height, too, but
check in the View mode before you actually publish the
page to make sure it works properly at whatever size
you change it to.
The
MaxRadius I'm guessing is the the maximum radius of
the largest globes. The MinWisps, on the other hand,
is anyone's guess. If you'd like to play around with
this parameter, go right ahead and see what happens.
You like an adventure every now and then, don't you?
So,
there you go. Enjoy!
