Help With Text On Web Page

[hungrylilboy]

If i put the following into the head section of my webpage it should make the selected text tremble. I have got it working before. Could someone look at it and tell me what i have done wrong this time as it aint working! :helpsmile:

This bit in head section>>>>>>

<style>
.jc{
position:relative;
}
</style>

&#60;script language="JavaScript1.2">

var ns6=document.getElementById&&&#33;document.all
var ie=document.all

var customcollect=new Array()
var i=0

function jiggleit(num){
if ((&#33;document.all&&&#33;document.getElementById)) return;
customcollect[num].style.left=(parseInt(customcollect[num].style.left)==-1)? customcollect[num].style.left=1 : customcollect[num].style.left=-1
}

function init(){
if (ie){
while (eval("document.all.jiggle"+i)&#33;=null){
customcollect[i]= eval("document.all.jiggle"+i)
i++
}
}
else if (ns6){
while (document.getElementById("jiggle"+i)&#33;=null){
customcollect[i]= document.getElementById("jiggle"+i)
i++
}
}

if (customcollect.length==1)
setInterval("jiggleit(0)",80)
else if (customcollect.length>1)
for (y=0;y<customcollect.length;y++){
var tempvariable=&#39;setInterval("jiggleit(&#39;+y+&#39",&#39;+&#39;100)&#39;
eval(tempvariable)
}
}

window.onload=init

</script>

And then this bit around the text>>>>

<span id="jiggle1" class="jc">inserted text</span>

I don&#39;t see any semicolons in that JavaScript code... There should be a semicolon at the end of most of those line.

Try this:

<script language="JavaScript1.2">

var ns6=document.getElementById&&!document.all;
var ie=document.all;

var customcollect=new Array();
var i=0;

function jiggleit(num) {
    if ((!document.all&&!document.getElementById)) return;
    customcollect[num].style.left=(parseInt(customcollect[num].style.left)==-1)? customcollect[num].style.left=1 : customcollect[num].style.left=-1;
}

function init() {
    if (ie) {
        while (eval("document.all.jiggle"+i)!=null) {
            customcollect[i]= eval("document.all.jiggle"+i);
            i++;
        }
    }
    else if (ns6) {
        while (document.getElementById("jiggle"+i)!=null) {
            customcollect[i]= document.getElementById("jiggle"+i);
            i++;
        }
    }

    if (customcollect.length==1) {
        setInterval("jiggleit(0)",80);
    }
    else if (customcollect.length>1) {
        for (y=0;y<customcollect.length;y++) {
            var tempvariable='setInterval("jiggleit('+y+')",'+'100)';
            eval(tempvariable);
        }
    }
}

window.onload=init;

</script>

[johannes001]

Ooops , all that acting smart and got the code wrong myself .

I&#39;ve put in an extra </a> when copying from the original


HEAD SHOULD BE:

 <span id="jiggle0" class="jc"><b>text</b></span>
