Tower of Hanoi Credits: Glenn Vergara
The Tower of Hanoi is a classic puzzle game where you try to move disks from the
left-most pole to the right using the least amount of moves. This DHTML script
features full drag-and-drop interface, and "auto solve" ability.
Slide-In
menu series Credits: Dynamic Drive
We've just updated all 4 scripts in our Slide-In Menu series by incorporating
some of the most asked features by you over the last year. The changes are:
1) All 4 menus now support both text links and regular text as
their content.
2) You can now specify exactly how much each of the 4 menus should protrude
initially from the user's window (in px).
3) The slide-out animation in
Slide-In Menu 1 and
Slide-In Menu 4 now made much smoother and faster.
With these changes in place, we're confident the series is now more usable than ever!

Dissolving image rollover
Credits: Roy Whittle
Everyone loves a great image rollover effect it seems. Well, a beefed up version
of just that, Roy's script adds a dissolving effect during image change in IE4+.
The script works across all browsers, though as eluded to, only IE4+ will
experience the added transition. A nicely put together visual effect!
LCD Clock
Credits: JavaScript Kit
This digital clock attempts to mimic that cool "glow in the dark" look of a LCD
watch when it comes to its interface. Displays the time in standard 12-hour
format, with a "AM" and "PM" indicator.

Flashing form element
Credits: Dynamic Drive
Use this DHTML script to make certain form elements flash with glee. It's a
great way to draw attention to "important" fields, such as the submit button,
etc.

Watching eyes script
Credits: Kurt Grigg
"In with the new, out with the old!" we say. The old Watching Eye script has
just been dropped, replaced by Kurt's version of it, which is much more
efficient, and works in all DHTML browsers, including NS7 and Opera. Now users
of all browsers can feel like they're being watched.
Floating Menu script Credits: Roy Whittle
We had a tough time settling between the words "floating" and "static" when
naming this script, though we're confident you'd agree with our final decision.
Welcome to Roy's cross browser floating menu, which remains static on the user's
screen by gently gliding into view whenever the page is scrolled. Very cool,
quite calming!
Note that this script replaces completely the old "Static Menu script", which used a single large image as the menu.

Dock Content script
Credits: Dynamic Drive
This powerful script allows you to keep arbitrary elements on your page always
in view, by "docking" it. It dynamically determines whether the element is
currently visible on the user's screen, and if not, repositions it so it is. A
great way to ensure that certain content are noticed by your visitors.
Xin's Popup Calendar
Credits: Xin Yang
Xin's Popup Calendar script makes inputting dates into forms as easy as
point-and-click. Your user simply selects the date from a popup calendar, and
it's automatically entered into the designated form field. This is one of the
best script of its kind in our opinion.

DOM XML ticker
Credits: Dynamic Drive
By combining DHTML with XML, this ticker script makes updating its contents a
breeze, through an external XML file. Just open the file, and enter the desired
messages to show. Plain text and links (with targeting) are supported, and
script is functional in both IE5+ and NS6+, degrading well with the rest.
Cross Browser Marquee
Credits: Dynamic Drive
Long overdue, one of the oldest scripts in our archive is now also the latest! A
complete rewrite, our beloved Cross Browser Marquee now works in NS6+, plus adds
support for pause "onmouseover" and configurable background color.

VML fireworks script
Credits: Jacco IJzerman
DHTML is still evolving at this point, with one of the proprietary extensions
being IE5's VML. Well using it, Jacco's script renders rather realistically
looking fireworks on your page without the use of graphics.
Conveyor Belt
slideshow
Credits: Dynamic Drive
Using feedback from you as the blueprint, we've given the conveyor belt
slideshow a new engine. And with that, gone is the disconcerting gap, or white
space, that was present as the script reached the end of each slide cycle. The
new script displays each cycle in a continuous fashion. And because no script
would be complete without it, the slideshow now also functions in NS6/Mozilla.
Enjoy!

Find In Page Script
Credits: Alan Koontz
One of our visitors Alan Kroontz has just replaced the original "Find in page"
script (by Mike Hall) on DD with a more cross browser functional, robust clone.
The script simulates the Edit> Find In Page feature of the
browser to allow your visitors to easily search for a particular text on your
page. Unlike the original version, this one supports easy searching of another
frame, plus bears the distinct title of being the first script in our archive
designed specifically for NS7+.

Scrollable Menu links
Credits: Dynamic Drive
If you have a lot of menu links and not a lot of space, this is the script to
turn to. It compacts any content into a predefined area, with the content
accessible via left and right scroll buttons. A rather big update, this script
now works in NS6+ (incl. Mozilla).

Time-based Progress Bar
Credits: Brian Gosselin
Every now and then we'll discard a script and replace it completely with
something else. Well, this is one of those instances. Out is our own
Dynamic Progress Bar,
replaced by Brian's version of it. This cross-browser script renders a progress
bar that's time based (ie: set progress bar to complete loading in 10 sec).
Useful in providing graphical countdown to any action that involves a delay
before execution.
Event-based Progress Bar
Credits: Brian Gosselin
This progress bar script is event-based, meaning it loads according to the
denoted circumstance. Via 3 pre-exposed methods, you control precisely when the
bar loads and by how much each time. Useful in supplementing any script that may
require a graphical bar.

Tabs Menu (onmouseover)
Credits: Dynamic Drive
This is a mouseover tabs menu. Move the mouse over designated links, and
additional "sub links" appear beneath it. Think of it as an inline two level
menu.
Up-down image slideshow
Credits: Dynamic Drive
Updating scripts for NS6 functionality is always rewarding, and our latest
project is the up-down image slideshow. And as often expected, the script now
also works in Mozilla.

CSS Menu Highlight
Credits: Marc Boussard
"Highlight" your menu links as the mouse moves over them using this CSS powered
script! Thanks to CSS, the effect is very customizable, efficient, does not rely
on script, and finally, very small in file size. Visible in IE4+, NS6+, Opera
6/Mozilla, and degrades well with the rest.
Form field Limiter
Credits: Dynamic Drive
The things we do for our visitors- fine tuning and back tracking on a script
many times over so it comes out exactly the way we feel it should in order to be
practical. Anyhow, our latest creation allows you to limit the amount of text a
user can enter in particular INPUT or TEXTAREA elements, and display in real
time the amount of character remaining as well. Very cool, very practical.

Mike's DHTML Scroller
Credits: Updated by Dynamic Drive
After many hours of starring at the computer, we're happy to report Mike's
popular DHTML scroller is now NS6 functional! For people not familiar with this
script, it's a robust scroller that features smooth pausing between messages,
configurable scroll speed, color, and font.

Daily iframe content
Credits: Dynamic Drive
This script loads a different page into an iframe daily (out of 7 days of the
week). Use it to serve up daily, changing content, such as a "tip of the day"
when you don't have access to server side resources.
Random iframe content
Credits: Dynamic Drive
By default, an iframe only displays one set URL. This script changes that, by
allowing you to specify a group of URLs for the iframe to randomly choose and
display from.

Always-on-top message
Credits: Dynamic Drive
We've always thought of the "Always on top message" script as being underrated.
To boast its image, the script's just been transplanted with NS6/Opera 6
compatibility, plus a much requested "display once per browser session" option.
Take that nay sayers!
Tic Tac Toe
Credits: Updated by Yossi Cohen
Word on the street is that Tic Tac Toe's sick of lossing, so he's fighting back.
Yossi Cohen brings 4 levels of difficulty to this classic game!

Fade-in slideshow
Credits: Dynamic Drive
Fade-in image slideshows are no longer impressive, unless the effect works in
both IE4+ and NS6, that is!
Animated window opener II
Credits: Rizwan Chand
Instead of just spawning a window, this script animates it into view, by
expanding it horizontally then vertically until it fills the screen. The
animation is fast enough to not become tedious, and the corresponding links are
easily set up.

Site Logo script Credits: Dynamic Drive
One of the very first scripts included on Dynamic Drive, the Site Logo
script has been brought back into the spotlight. The underlining code is now
greatly reduced and more efficient. By user request, the ability to specify user
offset of the logo from the browser edges is also added, so you can fine tune
where the logo appears on your page.
