Flashing Table Border: Need Variation

[Single_Tasker]

Flashing Table Border Script
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex11/other2.htm

I've pasted the DD script below.

The script and DD example page are set up to flash the border of ONE table. I have 4 seperate tables located at different places on my webpage. I have pasted the script 4 seperate times then changed the function and ID of each script- and its corresponding table- to flash the borders on the 4 tables. All of the borders are doing the exact same thing with the exact colors- which is what I want.

Can I use the script just ONCE- with modifications- that allow it to do the exact same thing on the 4 tables- rather than using the entire script 4 times? If so- be gentle- I'll need to see the fixed code.

Untested. Give your tables incremental IDs, such as, in this example: flashtable1, flashtable2, flashtable3, flashtable4...
