Hello,
I like the script I found here:
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex11/tod/tod.htm
I've several question and hope i can get some assistance please.
1. I included the script in the top-frame of a frame set. This frame acts as a navigation "bar" and remains static while the user is browsing the rest of the site. When unchecking "Show tips on startup" the "Enable Tip of the Day" dialog will appear the next time the page loads. Is it possible to have the dialog "button" appear immediately in the event the user would like to enable it while still on the site without reloading?
2. Is it possible to change the programming to allow the user to continue working on the page without having to close the "Tip of the day dialog"?
3. How can I remove the bottom status bar that show the files location "http..." etc?
4. I'd like to understand this part of the code:
- what is the position part all about? Relative and left to what?
<Input type="button" Value="Next Tip"
style="width:70;position:relative;left:63;background-color:#BFBFBF;color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;border:2px
outset #FFFFFF" onclick="ntip()">
5. I was able to add a button for "Previous Tip" but cannot figure out if it is possible to actually get the previously shown tip. It continues to show the tips randomized - which i like when going forward but not when I just want to see the one I mistakenly passt by. Can it be done to know what tip was shown prior and be able to go back to it?
6. Is it correct that the script should/would run everytime the user gets to this site? I thought it would run only once per day? Can that be changed?
Thank you for your help.
Stefan
