This JavaScript creates a floating window
when the viewer clicks on a link.
After three seconds, the floater
politely hides itself.
On the floater is a linked graphic
to return the viewer to the page which opened Magic Return
(no matter how many subsequent links are followed)
then Magic Return closes itself.
The floater also alerts the viewer
by "focusing" every 5 minutes.
I developed Magic Return so that I could
refer the viewer to pages on other websites
and provide a way back to netSperience.
Sometimes, it's also helpful for intra-site navigation.
Two Ways to install Magic Return
Method #1
Using a .js file
(for use on several web pages)
Save makeBounce.js
Replace my image and text with your own.
There are nine customizable variables at the beginning of the script.
Then upload makeBounce.js to your server.
Add makeBounce.js to your web page(s) with this code in the <head>
(insert it just before </head>):
