It's funny how one script from an
author could work in Mozilla Firefox and another script from
the same author not work in Firefox even if it looks similar
in coding.
Since I primarily use Firefox
nowadays and am bothered when scripts don't work in a popular
browser (meaning non-IE, non-Netscape) and have noticed a lot
of my visitors seeking snow scripts, I'm offering this
adaptation using five snowflakes created at Make-A-Flake
by me and others and tweaked with Paint Shop Pro 7 to use
here.
You can see the original script
by Kurt Grigg at Dynamic Drive by clicking the link on the
page title above. It's the same script that I've adapted for
use with SiteBuilder and show with flowers
and cookies.
Download these snowflakes to
your hard drive to upload or FTP later to your Files
directory. Because of the light color of these flakes, it's
best used on a dark-colored page. If you prefer to make your
own, go to Make-A-Flake
and then use your favorite graphics program to edit the
snowflakes. Or you can use the light bluish snowflakes offered
with Kurt Griggs' Snow
Image script.
Then copy-and-paste the script
to the right that's been changed to use with SiteBuilder into
an Insert HTML element and place the element in the top left
corner of the page without overlapping other elements. If you
have any problems with not seeing the snowflakes on your page,
you might have to use Stan Bisson's workaround as shown below:
Put that piece into the same element as the script but before
the script itself and make sure there's an empty line.
<img src="/tp.gif"
width="1" height="1" onload=fall>
Alternately, you can use less
than five snowflakes or just one. You will need to change the
number in the new Array() field and delete the required number
of lines of images. The less images you use, the higher the
number you can use in the Amount= field.
See the script in action on this
page, if you can't see it here!
BTW, I made the middle three
snowflakes above and other creative types made the ones on the
ends. You are free to view and download snowflakes from the
Gallery at Make-A-Flake.
