1) CODE TITLE: Browser Earthquake 2

2) AUTHOR NAME/NOTES:Brady Mulhollem

3) DESCRIPTION: This is about a 50% rewrite of Browser Earthquake (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex12/earthquake.htm) written by Dynamic Drive. My version is cross-browser compatible(I dropped support for IE4 and NN4). It also has configurable messages to display when the "earthquake" is over. I tested IE5+, Opera 7+, and Firefox 1+. I hope it is ok to post things like this here.

4) URL TO CODE: demo (http://www.bradyontheweb.com/demo/earth/index.html)

Lol, nice. Causes the page to reflow, though, at least in FX.

That's cause it messes with the margin(sets it back to where it started though). If someone really cares about the page reflowing I doubt they would use a script like this. I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

My advice would be to set position: relative on <body>, then jiggle that around with top: and left:.

Wouldn't that screw up the page if the window was resized though?

Shouldn't do, no. It won't affect the width of the page.
